Arrived by SafeSeat

The Free App That Saves Kids From Hot Cars

About Arrived

SafeSeat is a nonprofit organization dedicated to ensuring every child ends up seated safely in the classroom every morning. Arrived by SafeSeat is the flagship app that schools and childcare centers can use to notify parents when a child arrives at school and, more importantly, when they don’t.

With the Arrived app, parents and guardians receive automated text messages at a designated time, alerting them whether or not the child arrived at school. If a child is forgotten in the car, a text message will go out at the chosen time, and they’ll be able to rescue the child from the vehicle before a tragedy can occur.

How often does this actually happen?

According to the National Highway TSA, it happens a lot. Every nine days, another child dies from this tragic and avoidable situation. On average, that’s 38 children every year, totaling 900 in the past 20 years.

This year brought about increased stress, changing schedules, and unfamiliar living situations, increasing the risk of a child being left in the car. If we can save even one of the three dozen children who will be forgotten this year, it will all have been worth it.

But we’re not going to stop until we’ve saved them all.

Founder’s Story

Lily Crocquet is a long-time child safety advocate and mother of three. Born in Henderson, Nevada, she’s always been familiar with extreme heat and the stories of tragedy that come with it. Every year, children suffer heat-related death from being forgotten in the car on the way to school or daycare. It’s any parent’s worst nightmare, and despite our disbelief, it can happen to anyone.

Fortunately, we live in the age of computer science, and Lily was able to leverage technology to create a simple, life-saving solution. In 2021, she founded SafeSeat and launched the Arrived app using her personal savings. The lite version of the Arrived app is free for schools and childcare centers to use, so every parent can enjoy peace of mind knowing their children are safe in their seats.
