About

Ident-A-Kid Services of America, Inc. provides the nation’s largest Child Identification Program with over 30 years of success stories. The Company was founded in 1986 by Robert King after helping a neighbor, whose child had gone missing in a department store. As a result, Mr. King realized the importance of having a current photo ID and soon was providing child ID cards to friends and neighbors. The first Ident-A-Kid cards were printed with a typewriter, used Polaroid photos, and contained a messy ink fingerprint. Over the years, Ident-A-Kid has kept up with technology. In 1988, the IDs were made with a PC. Ten years later, the first digital photos and fingerprints were used. Shortly thereafter, a two-step process was developed to capture a child’s data in about ten seconds. In 2009, the first electronic ID, the eKid-ID, was sent to parents’ cell phones via picture text messaging. This important Program is currently offered to families at approximately 10,000 schools and daycares in 35 states, annually.

Ident-A-Kid’s School Security system is an-award-winning, state-of-the-art system that will track all visitor, volunteer, staff and student activity at your school and district. Our software is easy-to-use and will scan all visitors against the National Sexual Offender Registry as well as your custom banned/custody issue (NoGo) list, to secure your campus from visitors who do not need access to your students and faculty. Many schools have been able to significantly reduce administrative resources due to the time savings in accounting for tardy and early dismissal students as well as staff and volunteer hour tracking. This success has resulted in Ident-A-Kid’s Visitor Management system being used in over 7,000 school locations nationwide and winning the District Magazine Top 100 Product award for several years.
