    Safety | Monitors FAQs

    Many parents choose a baby monitor for the first six months to keep an eye on their baby while they sleep. After this, they can also be used for keeping an eye on young children once their settled in their own room or no longer co-sleep. As many monitors are portable, you can use them throughout the home to keep watch of your little one (or even fur baby!), with some offering audio feedback to hear noise or if they have stirred or awoken. For young babies, it is recommended to opt for low-emission power level monitors to ensure baby’s health like Babymoov's range of analogue monitors.

    To ensure the security of your baby monitor, it is recommended to follow certain security measures. First, establish a strong and unique password for your monitor and consider enabling two-factor authentication if available. Regularly review the monitor logs to identify any suspicious activities, such as unauthorised access from unfamiliar IP addresses or at unusual times. Additionally, make sure to secure your wireless router with a robust password. While modern radio monitors have minimal hacking risks, it is essential to note that WiFi monitors, which connect to your home network and potentially to the internet, are more vulnerable to hacking attempts.

    The purpose of a baby monitor is to provide parents peace of mind with a baby or young child, so it's good to establish what features will benefit both you and your family. There are a range of different baby monitors on the market that come with a wealth of added safety and practical features, such as night vision, voice activation (VOX), motion sensors, music and lullabies, temperature reading and much more. There's also technical features to look out with WIFI-based baby monitors offering unlimited range or technically advanced monitors offering ultimate peace of mind. Some monitors include sensor-based accessories to record heart rates and oxygen levels, like the Owlet Smart Sock V3,

    There is no exact age that you need to stop using a baby monitor but most experts suggest 4 years old or once your child is old enough to understand that they're being watched and begin wanting their own space. Many parents choose to stop using a baby monitor when their child is comfortably sleeping in their own bed and are able to communicate, this is typically around age 2/3 years. Families may find that the age they stop using their monitor can change with each child and when they feel comfortable no longer monitoring their movements or naptimes.

    Baby gates are important tools for life in the home with a young family, helping to prevent accidents on the stairs and other potentially dangerous areas like the kitchen or bathroom. To keep young children and babies safe, stair gates ensure a closed-off room and help keep your little one in sight. You can find lots of safe yet stylish baby gates to use all over the home with accessories to help them fit to awakward corners or spaces. Parents often like to opt for no-trip stair gates like the FredSafety range which are safe to use at the top of staircases and have the added bonus of fitting to your wall without screws.
