Whether you're a new first-time parent or a parent of many who is looking to be more prepared this time around, picking the right video baby monitor system is crucial to your and your little one's wellbeing and peace of mind. 

Baby monitors are an optimal tool to help you keep your child safe, and as technology evolves, so does baby camera technology. Smart baby monitors now offer a wide variety of features to meet your needs. Gone are the days of relying on unclear garbled sounds from a glorified walkie-talkie with a short battery life. Now you can see your child in full colour even in the dark. You can monitor their movements, breathing and temperature, and even soothe them using your voice or music through the device. The world is your oyster, and you have a plethora of choices. 

How to pick the right baby monitor

With that in mind, how exactly does one go about picking the right baby cam or monitor? Here at Aartech, we know that sometimes simplicity is best, but we also know that you can always ask for more from your technology. As an experienced parent, you might know exactly what you want, but as a new parent, you may find it complicated to navigate and decide which option is best for you and your child.

Start by asking yourself if you're looking for the "boring but gets the job done" monitor or if you're looking for something with all the bells and whistles. What are you looking for in your baby monitor?

From there, think about the must-have features - do you want two-way talk or camera calling? or are you looking for quality video and clear night vision? What about temperature sensing or even built-in music?

Lucky for you, we can make a few recommendations on the best baby monitors to keep your baby safe and keep you sane. With any one of these choices, you can relax knowing your child will a-ok.
