The idea behind a baby monitor is that you can have the ability to move around the house or your yard and still be able to keep tabs on your baby by listening or now viewing your baby. This can help alert you to a crying baby, a baby who needs your help or just help you watch baby while he or she sleeps.
The baby/nursery monitor that you buy will have different levels of mobility. The base usually plugs into the wall, usually the nursery or wherever your baby is sleeping. The receiver can plug in or be mobile. If you intend to use the monitor as you move from room to room, you will want to invest in the mobile kind, versus the stationary variety.
When purchasing a baby monitor, look for the following:
• There should be at least two channels to choose from;
• Be sure that you have a low battery indicator light. Without this you might be listening to the receiver, thinking all is quiet in the baby's room, when in fact all you've got is a dead battery;
• Has a power-on light so that you can know the unit is on without disturbing the baby;
• Has a volume control to put you in charge of how loudly you wish to hear your baby;
• Are you planning to carry around your end of the monitoring system? Then you might want a belt clip!
