Birthday Parties & Events Safety
Safe and confident celebration hosting by providing party hosts with instant access to parent contacts, food allergies, medical conditions, and behavioral preferences for all attending children.
Information Gaps at Celebrations
Birthday parties and events bring together children from different families, schools, and backgrounds. Host parents often lack critical information about attending children's medical needs, allergies, behavioral requirements, and emergency contacts. This creates safety risks and can lead to medical emergencies, allergic reactions, or behavioral crises.
Key Challenges:
Confident and Safe Celebration Hosting
TapTap Buddy eliminates information barriers and safety concerns, enabling hosts to focus on creating magical celebrations while having instant access to all the information needed to keep every child safe and happy.
How TapTap Buddy Helps:
Allergic Reaction at Indoor Play Center Birthday Party
10-year-old Maya's birthday party at an indoor play center with 15 children from different schools
The Situation
During cake time, 8-year-old Josh accidentally eats a piece of birthday cake that contains nuts in the frosting. Within 3 minutes, he develops hives and starts coughing. The birthday mom, Sarah, notices Josh is in distress but doesn't know about his severe nut allergy. She's hosting children from three different schools and doesn't have detailed medical information for each child.
Without TapTap Buddy
Sarah panics and tries to remember which parent mentioned allergies during drop-off. She searches through her phone for parent contacts but realizes she doesn't have Josh's mom's number saved correctly. The play center staff calls 911 while Sarah tries calling other parents to get Josh's emergency information. Josh's symptoms worsen during the 15-minute delay.
With TapTap Buddy
Sarah immediately taps Josh's TapTap Buddy wristband and sees 'SEVERE NUT ALLERGY - EpiPen in red case in backpack. Administer immediately for breathing issues or throat tightness. Call 911 after use. Mom: (555)789-0123.' She finds and administers the EpiPen within 2 minutes while calling Josh's mom and 911.
The Outcome
Josh's allergic reaction is stopped quickly before it becomes life-threatening. His mom arrives as EMS is monitoring him, and he's taken to the hospital for observation but recovers fully. The party continues for other children, and Sarah gains confidence hosting future parties knowing she can handle emergencies effectively.

"At my daughter's 8th birthday party, one of the kids had an asthma attack during the games. I was able to tap his TapTap Buddy and immediately see where his inhaler was and how to help him. It saved the party and probably saved him from a serious emergency."
