You heard a heartbreaking story about a tragic loss because an unconscious parent couldn’t notify fire fighters that there was a child in the home, and it made you think about the safety of your children and pets. What if you weren’t home when the house caught fire? What if you were knocked out like the mom with the child who died in the fire? You need a way to make sure this never happens to the people and pets you love, but how?

The answer is actually quite simple. What you need is a sign that announces that there are pets or children inside.

• VistaPrint makes a window sign that says “Baby on Board” that can be ordered without any alterations and applied to a front window or to the glass of the front door.
• If you have several children or your baby insists he or she is not a baby anymore, take a look at some of the many child care designs. You can customize one of them with your message that your children may be inside.
• For your four-legged family members, there are several pet designs that can easily be altered to announce that there are two dogs and a cat inside in need of assistance.
