I had the wonderful opprotunity to check out the iHealth – iBaby Monitor first hand from Best Buy! The first thing that caught my eye about the product was of course… video! The fact that I can not only hear what’s going on but also see first hand is fantastic because let’s face it, sometimes your imagination tends to run wild of things like this!
the iHealth – iBaby Monitor lets you monitor your child’s movements by simply swiping your ipad, iphone or clicking with your mouse! Not to mention it actually allows you to speak to your child so you can soothe them when you see them getting agitated or upset. Now this of course in no way replaces you actually being there but if you put the little one down for a nap it makes it simple and easy to monitor and talk to them if needed!
I tested it out with my PC because with baby pickles on the way I want to be able to work but still monitor him/her when I am in my office and the baby is in the nursery. I have one computer set up for my work and one set up for music/news/etc. so I set up the monitor on the second system so I can watch the nursery the entire time I work!
Since the nursery isn’t set up just yet I decided to actually test it in the living room with my dogs to keep an eye on them and see what they were getting into when I wasn’t in there.
Instillation was easy for my PC, simply entered the disc they provided to install. Set up the monitor to my router and attached the antenna to configure it for Wifi use. Once the disc installed the system I had to “search” to configure the IP address and locate the monitor.
Once everything was set and ready to go I was able to view my living room in all it’s glory (or not so much glory.. it is just a living room after all). but I absolutely love the smooth movement of the monitor, clear video and the ability to record! Not to mention with the availability to view online you can leave the baby with the baby sitter and check the video monitor anytime from your iphone, ipad or online so you always know what’s going on!
All in all I am in love with this monitor and plan to use it as long as it lasts, from baby years to toddler to the younger years where I can see what they’re getting into!
