Prefer one with 2 transmitters and 1 receiver for the aide. The Fisher price one we have now only has 1 round transmitter so it is not too practical. I am looking for something fairly easy to use. Up till now we have not used video but it might not be a bad idea when mom attempts to get up from her recliner without telling the aide first because she doesnt want to bother her. (Has happened a few times.) Mom has weakness in her legs, has had 2 strokes and has vascular dementia which ebbs and flows. Any suggestions? Also, are there little alarms that can be placed on the walker?
According to doctors, better sleep leads to better child development and better cognitive scores. I guess by being able to monitor your child's sleep patterns, you could give your child better opportunities in terms of development.
Another interesting point is that it has real time alerts on the smartphone to keep the whole circle of care givers up to date on what is happening to the baby when he is in the cot.
Interesting product, you can read more about Nana
If not, Motorola MBP36 wireless or plug in (Walmart) is a good one with one camera and microphone (you can respond back to her).
If you wanted no vid, VTech Safe and Sound, 2 way monitor also, Walmart) but both if these only have one monitor each I believe.
Moms caregiver uses the VTech and I've used the Motorola with my granddaughter.
Mom feelsike she has no privacy on the phone, however, so often gets up and goes into the barhroom to talk. This is when she can fall so I'm thinking about the motion sensors too. Need to look into that.
Good luck. There are many options for your specific needs. Even go to the store, find what you like and if you trust EBay, buy there for much cheaper.
The one I use was ~$40, purchased from Amazon, but only has one receiver. However, I see they do make the same unit with an option for two receivers for ~$60. Kind of wish I had that. In fact, two monitors would be helpful, too (mom is primarily in one room or the other). Gonna look into that...
I have thought about a baby monitor, but I woupd never get any sleep. There are two of them up there, right above my head. Between the two of them they are probably up 10 or more times in the night. There is a wireless doorbell with the button in their room and the receiver next to my bed.
