Abstract: The safety and security of newborns in hospitals is one of the most common problems in the world. There are many problems related to the security of children, such as cases of Kidnapping and exchange of children in hospitals and public places. In this research, we will review most of the recent works that have been implemented to protect children from cases of Kidnapping and exchanging by using several smart devices, including Arduino, GPS technology in cooperation with (WIFI or RFID). Where, parents can monitor their children remotely or receive messages via GSM technology, where the child’s information is sent through smart devices to the parents’ mobile phone. Also, for the safety of children, there are many smart devices that can be used for this purpose such as a pulse sensor and a temperature sensor to enable the parents to know the child’s pulse and temperature. So, the parent can access the child’s data intermittently by communicating through this smart gadget. This makes guardians defend the kids even in their absence. Eventually, the data is stored in the cloud permanently to keep a history of children’s old data tracking.

Keywords: Safety, Security, Newborn Monitoring, Arduino, GSM.
