What is a Baby Monitor?
A baby monitor is a device that helps parents keep an eye—or ear—on their baby from another room. It typically includes two parts: a transmitter placed near the baby (often with a camera or microphone) and a receiver for the parent, which may have a screen, speaker, or app connection. Audio monitors let parents hear their baby, while video monitors show live footage. Some advanced models offer features like night vision, temperature tracking, two-way audio, or smartphone alerts. Baby monitors provide peace of mind by allowing caregivers to monitor their child without needing to be in the same room.
