Registered nurse promotes message of child safety through internet radio.

Edmond, OK June 23, 2004 -- Tamara Walker, R.N. took the opportunity to spread the word about the value of having up to date child identification as a guest on the Work at Home Moms Internet Talk Radio program - http://www.wahmtalkradio.com this week.

After a few years as a pediatric nurse, Tamara chose to work at home to be with her children full-time and opened a child daycare. Working with children on a daily basis and with her hospital experience, Walker sees very few children carrying child identification products and wants to encourage parents to make it a priority. She recommends that parents teach their children to carry an ID card or wear other forms of identification, such as an ID bracelet or a Kid ID Scope. She also recommends having an ID card attached to your child's car seat, inside diaper bags and book bags, and in your own purse or wallet. "Most of us put ID tags on our pets, and almost all adults have some form of identification with them, but kids need it even more. According to the FBI, approximately 600,000 children are reported missing each year but only 2 percent have any form of identification with them. In the event that a child wanders away and is lost, having his or her own child ID card makes it so much easier for the parent and child to be reunited," Walker says.

In addition to her recent guest spot on WAHM Talk Radio, Tamara is a regular guest on Oklahoma City's KOKF 91FM. She appears the first Tuesday of each month on the "Lunch Break" program. Tamara also teaches child safety classes and abduction prevention classes to parents and children in Oklahoma.
