If you want to harness the power of the latest technology to monitor your little one, look no further than this DECT monitor from Philips.  Many parents know the frustration of not getting good reception on their monitor.  I can’t tell you how mant times I picked up other people’s phones or monitors on our old model.

This state of the art monitor from Philips is continually scanning 60 channels to find the best, clearest connection.  That way, you don’t worry that you you’ll be hearing everything but your baby when it matters most.  It has a 900 foot range and comes with two parent monitors.  It can also be used as an intercom.  I like the sleek design and nightlight feature, too.

You can purchase one for $199.95 at onestepahead.com.

No matter how careful we are or how prepared we are as parents we just can’t forsee every circumstance or situation. Being able to “see” that our baby is safe and secure can go a long way to peace of mind. The BébéSounds LCD Flat Panel Color Video & Sound Monitor could really help.

Usually we have our newborns in the bassinet or crib right next to our own bed. But when they’re transitioning to their own space this is a good way to feel secure - for the child too. They might have some anxieties about sleeping away from parents also.

Both camera and screen may be wall-mounted. The flat color screen measures 5.5″.  It can connect to your TV or VCR. The BébéSounds LCD Flat Panel Color Video & Sound Monitor is 900 Mhz, with a 400 ft transmission range. A/C adaptors are included, and it also works on 6 “AA” batteries (sold separately). You can buy one for $189.35 at OneStepAhead.com.
