The invention provides a system for alerting a second subject (e.g. a parent) based on a wellbeing state of a first subject (e.g. a child) when the first subject is sleeping in the same room as the second subject. An arrangement of sensors is used for sensing data from the first subject and a processor is configured to determine the presence of the first subject from the sensing data. Based on the first subject being present, the processor is further configured to determine the state of the first subject based on the sensing data from the arrangement of sensors and then determine whether to alert the second subject based on the state of the first subject. An alarm is provided for alerting the second subject.

There is provided a method, apparatus and system for method for tailoring at least one subsequent communication to a user. Data acquired on the user in connection with a plurality of communications to the user is processed to determine a value for one or more characteristics indicative of a state of the user in connection with each communication. At least one communication parameter is varied in respect of each communication. The values for the one or more characteristics indicative of the state of the user that are determined in connection with each communication are compared to identify one or more communication parameters that are most suitable for the user. One or more communication parameters are set for the at least one subsequent communication to the user according to the one or more identified communication parameters. The subsequent communication to the user is enabled based on the set one or more communication parameters.
