Baby monitors are a pretty essential thing these days for a
nursery. It used to be just listening but now it’s a whole new ballgame. I was
working with NextStep Baby Monitors on something else when they agreed to doing
a review on one of their monitors and a giveaway. To say I was excited would be
a huge understatement.
First this isn’t a normal baby monitor. It’s a camera and
you use an app or your PC to watch the baby. Once I received the monitor
NextStep had a member of their customer service department call me to help me
get it hooked up to my wifi. They walked me though step by step on how to get
it up and working. It was some of the best customer service I have ever come
across.
Once it was up, it was ready to use. There is an app to
download if you want it on your ipad, or smart phone. Once it’s downloaded you
can watch from anywhere. If you are worried about privacy, don’t worry. Someone
would have to have all three things to get access: 1- the IP address for the
camera, 2- your username and 3- your password. Without those things nobody can
see anything.
I love this camera. I was at an appointment and Fallon was
home taking a nap with a family member watching her for me. I was able to turn
the app on and check on her. I use it every day when she’s taking her naps to
check on her to see if the cry is a “I’m awake and want out” cry or a “I’m
still sleeping but needed to cry” cry. Saves on walking into the room and
possibly waking her up.
A few things about the camera:
- DVR- Use the recording feature to make cute videos and there are NO fees to record. With my iphone it saves right to my video/camera roll
- Night vision- see in the dark so you don’t have to go in and check on the baby
- Listen & talk back- you can listen to what’s going on and actually talk back
- Motion alert- you can set it to alert you when sound is detected.
- Tilt and pan- you can tilt and pan the room to get it in the perfect position and to move it around if you need to see more.
- Capture- take pictures and videos straight from your phone.
I recommend that you visit their site and order yours today
or maybe order one as a gift for someone.

ReplyDeleteMy favorite feature of the "NextStep Baby Monitor" is it's smart phone app. so that you can see your baby using your phone! :)

ReplyDeleteI like the idea that I could use it almost as a nanny cam for times when i might need a sitter but afraid sometimes.. so I could set this up in my living room and still be able to see everything goin on
ReplyDeleteI really like all the features, but the motion alert is probably my favorite.
ReplyDeleteI love the talk back feature!
ReplyDeleteI like the easy recording feature.
ReplyDeleteI think the ability to see the baby when I'm away is wonderful, especially as a parent who will probably have to spend some time traveling.
ReplyDeleteI love that you can move the camera around the room from your phone or tablet!
ReplyDeleteI love the talk back feature as well!
ReplyDeleteSmart Phone app and looks to be clear good quality! Not always easy to find.

ReplyDeleteCan monitor baby from iPhone, iPad, etc. There's a pan and tilt and listen and talk back feature as well.
ReplyDeleteI love that it has an app to be able to view it from your phone.. what a great idea to be able to check in on the little ones when they are with a babysitter instead of calling her a thousand times a night!! :)
ReplyDeleteI love that you can view from your phone and the talk back function!
ReplyDeleteI love that it works with your phone and you can make videos!!!

My favorite thing is that I can use it on my smartphone. It is amazing how far technology has come!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite feature is the video and how clear it is. We have never owned a video monitor before and we would love one for our third baby (who is due in Feb.). We just bought an old Victorian style home (much bigger than any apartment we have ever had) and having a clear picture of our baby girl would make me less anxious!
