Parenting meets access control

This past year was one of the best years to date for me and my family. 

My husband and I recently welcomed our first child in October and it has truly been the biggest blessing we could have ever imagined. And in having our first, the world has completely changed in and around us in ways I didn’t expect.

Growing up, I always thought the day I was able to have kids, I’d be the “chill” parent, the “let them explore” parent… boy was I wrong. The moment our little girl entered the world, it was as if my mom-instinct was supercharged. 

For the first month of her life, I was worried about every single thing. Every unusual sound, every visitor that walked through our door getting her sick, every night’s sleep making sure she was still breathing. Trust me, I know this is very normal for a lot of first time moms, but I never imagined being so… protective. 

It wasn’t until month two and month three where I felt my grip loosen. I am more comfortable with others around her, she’s making new noises, interacting with us much more and has more control of her head, neck and limbs. But that protective nature still lies within me every moment of every day. And that’s ok, because as a parent, you’re supposed to be protective of your children. It’s instinct, as they say. 

But this month, I had a realization. If I continue to limit her in the things she does, the people she sees, etc., I am only putting her at a disadvantage. The best thing for her is to be able to explore the world, meet new friends and learn with and from others. I can’t be a helicopter mom forever, nor do I want to be. The same can be said (oddly enough) for your access control solution. 

Putting limits on customers is only putting them at a disadvantage now and in the future. We have a duty to provide customers access without limits. Meaning, without limitations. Without boundaries. Without the inability to work with others. And that’s why Wavelynx’s platform is open and interoperable… to provide the best solution for our customers by maintaining the ability to work with anyone, from endpoint to endpoint. 

Now, at the end of the day, Wavelynx will still be a protective helicopter mom in some ways, ensuring you allow the right people in and keep the wrong people out, but it’s our mission to allow you the opportunity to craft your ideal access solution by integrating multiple solutions at your facility. And through our open platform, we can help make that happen. We are providing you secure access, without limits.
