A pressure-sensitive pad is installed either between a child car seat and the vehicle seat OR between the child and the child car seat that communicates with an alerting system. This pad includes a pressure sensor, a battery, a stored program computing system having a processor executing instructions from a, and communications system compatible with the alerting system. The alerting system is a wireless system that both measures a proximity of the responsible party to the pressure pad and issues an indication (e.g., one or more of an audio, visual, haptic, vibratory, and the like signal(s)) that a proximity (e.g., local geo-fence around the pad) distance has been exceeded AND that the child remains in the child seat. The alerting system may be installed in an alert system that is part of a portable electronic device (e.g., smartphone) or a special module (e.g., key fob).
