I want to set up some simple programmable buttons to run scenarios at my house and my (elderly) mother's.

Factors:
Wi-Fi enabled houses
I have a background in IT - but only done vaguely intelligent plug and play for the last 10 years.
No hubs existing.
Trying to stay cost effective.

Recommendations?

I have existing home automation scenarios, so pretty easy.

Mum's will be all new, but the most important one will be one that sends an alert of some sort to me on activation.

@Andrea I use these for that functionality. But like the Sonoff's mentioned earlier, these are also zigbee so you'd need to add a zigbee dongle to your setup. Single press, double press, long press options for running automations.

No wiring required. The minimal design allows you to place it anywhere or attach it to a surface with a sticker.
