Regine and Nate enjoy bonding over the Telpad |
Quezon City,
Philippines – Moms are super women.
Aside from being the
driving force of the household, many moms also play different roles in the work
place and in the community. They are the ultimate multi-taskers, often having
to sacrifice ‘me’ time for the sake of the family.
Balancing multiple
responsibilities is a challenge, even for the toughest moms, but what’s
probably most difficult is achieving peace of mind especially when they have to
be away from the young ones.
What’s a mom got to
do?
The answer is
technology. These days, smart gadgets and high-speed internet can empower moms
to be in control of the family’s safety and security.
Just ask Asia’s
Songbird and modern-day mom Regine Velasquez – Alcasid. Mom to four-year-old
Nathaniel James, more fondly known as Nate, Regine exemplifies the modern-day
Filipino mom who strikes the balance between her hectic work schedule and her
role as a family woman.
“Technology helps me become a better mom,” she revealed. “Specifically, I get a lot of help from PLDT HOME.” Regine, who is also an ambassador for the brand, added, “They have a suite of products and services that are designed to give moms like me peace of mind through the power of technology. So far, super helpful talaga siya for me especially when I have to be away for work.”
Forefront of strongest
connections at home
As the leader in
digital innovations for the home, PLDT HOME designs its products and services
to help parents like Regine effectively multi-task while ensuring the safety of
their families. Two products which promote peace of mind among working moms are
the Fam Cam and Smart Watch.
The Fam Cam is a home
monitoring system which allows parents to check on their children remotely, and
even communicate with them. The Smart Watch, a personal favorite of Nate, is a
multi-functional gadget which kids can use to take photos, play music, and even
record voice messages.
Nate Alcasid and his favorite gadget, the Smart Watch |
According to Regine,
they use the Smart Watch to easily talk to Nate because he can directly answer
calls using his watch when it is connected to their Telpad or a smart phone. The
Alcasids also use it as a WiFi remote for the Telpad or smart phone cameras so
it’s easier to take selfies or groufies wherever they are.
Regine also shared how
the watch helps teach Nate to become more responsible and aware of his
surroundings. Nate’s Smart Watch can come to the rescue using the anti-lost
feature. He simply has to click on a button and the connected device will make
a sound so it can be located. The Smart Watch will also vibrate if Nate goes
more than 10 meters away from the paired device so if the Telpad or smart phone
is with Mommy Regine or Daddy Ogie, it will remind him to go back to them.
“Nate really loves his
Smart Watch,” Regine said. “As a parent, this is a gadget na approve sa akin kasi I
can really see that it helps us bond better as a family.”

New members of the PLDT
HOME family
Following his mother’s
footsteps, Nate was recently launched as the new ambassador for the Smart
Watch.
“We’re very excited to have Nate on board,“ PLDT VP and Home Marketing Director Gary Dujali said. “He represents the kids of his generation—perennially curious, smart and dynamic. Together with his mom, we look forward to reaching to more families and educating them about the ways technology can help bring them closer.” Regine added, “Siyempre, I’m super proud of my baby boy! PLDT HOME is close to our hearts and as a family, we are proof that technology can really help make our lives safer and easier.”
