Finding the Best Baby Monitor for Your Baby and You
The Best Baby Monitor comes in two main classes: Audio Only and Audio/Video. Either type comes with a transmitter and one or more receivers. The transmitter is a unit that sits in the baby’s nursery. In the case of an audio/video monitor, the unit will be aimed at the baby to transmit a picture showing the infant. The receiver is an easy to transport unit that receives the sound and/or video and transmits it at a location near the parent.
One of the biggest problems with many baby monitors is the amount of interference they pick up. Another is the fact that they are basically radio and television broadcast units, and can sometimes be picked up by other similar units nearby. It can give you a pretty good scare if your infant is suddenly in different clothing on the video monitor, or if you hear a strange voice coming over the monitor when no one is in the house but you. This usually only occurs when both you and a neighbor have the same model broadcasting on the same frequency, but it can be a scare when it happens.
While the primary complaint with monitors is the interference they pick up, other complaints include limited battery life, limited range, and video cut-out and poor visibility. If your unit doesn’t perform as intended, don’t be afraid to return it to the seller.
One way to get away from the interference issue to to purchase only digital units. For many parents, a digital monitor truly is the Best Baby Monitor. If that doesn’t work for you, most quality analog models will allow you to change the channel on the monitor. This may allow it to broadcast on a frequency that isn’t carrying an interfering sound.
One great consideration when buying a baby monitor is how it will fit into your lifestyle. If you are running a home-based business out of your house, then having a video monitor may be important, since it will allow you to see the baby without hearing it. There are also some audio devices that will signal loud sound with lights, even when muted, so that you can be on the phone and still “listen” to the sound coming from your baby’s room.
You should also consider your mobility. If you are always moving about, then a belt on model might work best. If you are usually in only one or two rooms, then a unit with multiple receivers may work best.
Finally, check to see the return policy for the store you are buying from. Since even the Best Baby Monitor must be used before you can tell if it fits your needs, a liberal return policy is almost a must for you. But even if the seller doesn’t offer a great return policy, or if the return period has expired, persistence will usually win.
