Home security system vs baby monitor?

rachkw81

We are having Baby #2 in a couple of months and we live in a 2-story home, with our bedroom and main living on a different floor than the children's bedrooms. I want to be able to monitor each of my children in their own rooms by seeing and hearing them at the same time. I am also interested in monitoring them in the playroom. Has anyone found that a home security camera system to be more effective or affordable than a traditional baby monitor? If so, what is it like for you and which system did you use? Geeky dweebs and nerds are especially encouraged to reply with help.

Answer
To be honest, many baby video monitors can offer what you need. You can buy the parent unit and add more cameras as you need to monitor different rooms. I would take a look at the Samsung SEW-3037W. You can view up to 4 rooms at the same time using 4 cameras, via split screen on the parent unit. The night vision quality is good, it works over a large range and you can pan, zoom and tilt with the cameras

PLACE FOR INTERNAL SECURITY CAMERA. BEST ANSWER TOP POINTS?

THOMAS W

THESE ARE THE CAMERA LOCATION OPTIONS

- BOTTOM OF STARIWAY (BABY IN THE HOUSE). SHE IS ADVENTEROUS!
- TOP OF DININGROOM CABINET TO WATCH PATIO DOORS AND BABY LIKES TO PLAY HERE. BABY PLAYS OUT OF SIGHT.
- INSIDE GARAGE , DOORS ARE OPEN ALL DAY, AND IS NOT VISIBLE FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE. TOOLS AND BIKES ECT STORED HERE.

ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS ARE GREAT AND APPRECIATED, HOWEVER THE CAMERA IS AN INTERNAL CAMERA ONLY. THE MONITOR IS THE SCREEN/MONITOR IN ONE, AS THE MONITOR CAN BE MOVED FROM ROOM TO ROOM EASILY.

THANKS!

Answer
Wherever the baby plays the most and is least visible to you normally.

Baby Monitor Handheld and Screen?

Audi

well im looking for a baby monitor that has a screen and has a hand held monitor like this http://www.target.com/Summer-Complete-Coverage-Monitor-Handheld/dp/B001N44UVW/ref=br_1_27?ie=UTF8&frombrowse=1&searchView=grid5&searchNodeID=1041936&node=1041936&sr=1-27&searchRank=pmrank&searchPage=1&searchSize=30&id=Summer%20Complete%20Coverage%20Monitor%20Handheld&qid= thing is i need one that i could add another camera... is that one able to have more than one camera? or is there another one like this package that is capable of having two camera

Answer
Not sure what this one does. I purchased a video baby monitor and it was the worst thing ever. After that I just got a regular security camera that mounts and is wireless and has a box that is plugged into the tv. You can add more camera's and tv boxes to more than one tv in the house and these are a whole lot better quality and if you look around you can find one that is cheaper than the baby ones also.

Baby monitors & strangers?

Q. Ok so i just found out that strangers can see your baby if you have a video monitor!!!! U can change the channels and pick up other babies that are close by! CREEPY!!! There was a big thing about it on the news! They also hear everything! I read somwhere that if you have a DIGITAL video monitor you are safe and other people arnt able to see your baby! Does anyone know if this is true or not about the digital monitors? Id feel much safer having a video monitor on my baby so I can actually see her, but if a stranger can see her too ITS NOT WORTH IT!!!

Answer
As far as I know, as long as it's a closed circuit then you should be fine. So if it's connected with a cable, there's no picture being broadcast and no one but you would be able to see. But if it's a wire-less version someone could look if they have something that would pick up the signal. If I was going to do a video monitor like that I'd actually get a security camera and set it up like that. To me though, there was no reason to have a video monitor. The sound monitor worked fine. :)

Add: Considering the number of burglaries that happened a few years back from people copying the signal from garage door openers and using that to open them and get into the house, I dunno. A video monitor that shows a burglar when I'm with my baby and alone would worry me a bit. *shrugs* But that's just me. I've read the police monitors around here and there have been increases in burglaries that happen when the people are home.

For me, I can tell when my baby is crying and when she's talking or singing. I just listen to her voice.

What is the best way to observe a new nanny? Hidden nannycam? Installed security systems?

Alan K

I live in a 2 bedroom apt and I have a newborn baby, what should I use to see what's going on with the nanny and baby when I am not home?
Some people have no choice and they have to. I trust the nanny, but still you hear and see things about what they do behind closed doors.

Answer
I agree with the person below, why leave your child with someone you want to monitor,especially a new born. Also you cannot install security systems or cameras without the person knowing it is an invasion of their privacy.
