LAS VEGAS, NV - January 4, 2017 - Project Nursery, the definitive authority on baby's first room, along with partner and consumer electronics leader VOXX Accessories Corporation (VAC), is bringing parent-friendly design and technology together at CES 2017. One year after announcing their video baby monitor system, complete with the world's smallest Mini Monitor, Project Nursery does it again with the Parent + Baby SmartBand, a first-of-its kind wearable device created specifically for new parents and powered by world-class technology. In addition to the SmartBand, Project Nursery and VOXX will showcase an assortment of new, must-have products to help parents create a safe and functional nursery at the show.

"Our Project Nursery line of baby monitors received a rousing response from both retailers and consumers-inspiring us to keep the momentum going and introduce a truly breakthrough solution, the world's first wearable specifically designed for prenatal and postnatal moms," says Ian Geise, President of VOXX Accessories Corporation. "Along with the SmartBand, our one-of-a-kind products offer stylish choices and unique features, with a branding experience like no other. The retailer response to our new line has been outstanding, and we can't wait for consumers to start experiencing these innovative products at the turn of the year."

Expanding on its successful line of baby monitors, Project Nursery is introducing their Parent + Baby SmartBand, designed exclusively for new parents. Journaling continues to be one of the biggest pain points for new mothers and the SmartBand makes it easier for parents more than ever before. Some of the many journaling functions include

tracking breastfeeding and bottle feeding, pumping, pre- and post-natal vitamins, medications, diaper changes, fetal movements, child weight and naps, as well as a tracking parents' hydration, weight, diet, exercise, and sleep. The SmartBand app allows parents to sync all their data from their SmartBand to their app and share all key information with pediatricians, OBs, or even family members in easy read journal pages that can be printed or emailed. The SmartBand app also features a customizable reminder and alarm function to help parents stay on schedule, and messages of encouragement throughout the day to help keep mom happy and motivated. Bluetooth Smart sends reminders and notifications from App to SmartBand that will vibrate to make sure mom or dad doesn't miss an important task. From scheduling and tracking events for mom and baby to streamlining digital communications, the SmartBand offers thoughtful features and capabilities to simplify daily family life and keep baby and mom healthy through infancy and beyond.

Other features include an activity tracker for mom, which shows steps, distance, calories burned, and activity time. The app also saves historical data for both mom and baby in graphs and logs, making progress easy to share with family pediatricians and physicians. The SmartBand's touchscreen and durable wristband are designed to keep up with parents through diaper changes, bottle washing and sleepless nights. The

splash-resistant device features an extra-long battery life, with up to 30 days of battery life per charge - best-in-class across all activity and fitness trackers. Available in February 2017, the Parent + Baby SmartBand will retail for $149.99 and will include three different colored wristbands - blush pink, white and black.
