Are you looking for the best baby monitors like I was when I wrote this article? I was specifically looking for a monitor system to care for my elderly parents – mother and father who are both pensioners, and naturally the first thing that came to my mind was baby monitor systems.
I thought finding a good baby monitor would be a simple visit to Amazon and all done.. But no! There are a tone of baby monitors on the market nowadays, some with cameras supplied and small bedside monitor screens – complete with a myriad of features. So what are the features on a modern baby monitor?
Todays baby monitors features include such things as; night vision capability; multiple cameras for use in different rooms; smart and mobile phone connection to view your baby or loved one when out of the house; wi-fi connectivity and some non-wifi (using radio waves); motion sensors, and alarm systems for breathing and room temperature monitoring – as well as tonnes of other features.
To be honest, it was WAY too complicated to get my head round in any short space pf time, and that’s why I decided to write everything I researched and discovered about the top monitors systems for elderly and old people in this advice article on the best baby monitors! See the table below for what I discovered.
Here is the results of my research on the features and differences between several popular baby camera and monitor systems..
