Nanit Pro Smart Baby Monitor & Floor Stand – 1080p Wi-Fi Video & Sound Camera, Sleep Coach and Breathing Motion Tracker, 2-Way Audio, Compatible with iOS and Android Phones, Includes Breathing Band

My husband and I were terrified to bring our premature baby home without some way to monitor her breathing. She had some episodes in the NICU where she stopped breathing so we ordered several monitors just in case when they told us she was ready to come home. This was the one we kept. It’s so comforting to know that if she stops breathing, we are alerted right away even if we aren’t in the room. Putting on her breathing wear sleep sack is part of our baby girl’s sleep routine and she loves her “blankie”! The alerts for sound and motion are a little obnoxious (we live on a busy street so big trucks driving by set off the motion alerts and sirens set off the sound alarms so we even get them when we aren’t home) but it is awesome whenever she’s in her crib because we know if she’s waking up or whatever. If you are deciding between this and the owlet, we preferred this. It’s an investment in peace of mind and super helpful. It even has a nightlight and sound machine built in! My only complaint would be that I wish I could turn off the sound for when the baby is out of the crib “too long”. Sometimes it wakes her up just before I put her back so I have to remember to turn off the monitoring as soon as I get her out to nurse/rock/change/bottle her. It’s really cute getting to see the little updates/videos too! I didn’t think I was going to love it this much but I’m so glad we got it!

The Nanit Pro is an excellent product for so many reasons. The ability to view our daughter through the video stream, the built in night light so we can see what we’re doing when we need to take her out of bed, the built-in sound machine, and the video recaps to give us a sense of how long she’s sleeping consecutively. Highly, highly recommend this product.Now for my fellow deaf and hard of hearing parents…one of the reasons we chose this monitor in particular is because of the ability to push notifications from the monitor to our phones and smart watches. However this is where I discovered a major limitation - there is no smart watch that allows me to customize the length or intensity of the vibration alerts so it wakes me up when she cries at night. Which is super unfortunate, because the Nanit is excellent at picking up on her cries throughout the house and not just right next to her. I’ve tried multiple other systems and they just don’t match the sensitivity level of the Nanit. During the day, it’s great because I can be anywhere in the house and receive the quick buzz to let me know she’s crying. But I’m still working on the night piece.With that said, I’ll keep searching for a solution for my particular needs, but as far as baby monitors go, we love our Nanit!

I tried out a radio baby monitor before Nanit due to concerns over WiFi hacking/security. However, soon after my newborn arrived I realized that carrying around a baby, burp cloths, my phone, and a monitor was too much. I opted to switch to Nanit to have the baby monitor on my phone.I have absolutely loved the Nanit. The picture quality is unmatched by the other monitors I’ve tried, including the Nest cameras. It has all the features we need and even puts cute little videos together as your baby grows up. My newborn is now a toddler and I have a new, newborn, and we have been using the split screen feature every night. I continue to use the original camera with no issues and bought another for the new baby. As a bonus, my immediate family also loves being able to check on their grandkids/niece and nephew. It makes our out of town relatives feel closer.The only con I can think of is the price! If you can afford it, this is one of my most used baby items.

I had been pining for the Nanit Pro baby monitor for months. I had been seeing their ads all over the baby sites and apps (Babylist, WTEWYE, Baby Center) and I loved that it was a more modern baby monitor. The fact that I could use my phone as the monitor was a MAJOR plus. I hate all the old school monitors with horrible picture quality and it's just another thing to carry around. Anyway, fast forward a few months and now I have my Nanit Pro and I LOVE it! I love that my husband and I can both be connected because we can access from our own phones and we can even let her grandparents have access to checkin on her from time to time. It was also super easy to setup. We went with the floor stand rather than wall mount because we may want to adjust the placement or even potentially travel with it. Definitely think it's worth it. We haven't bought all the accessories we want just yet but the breathing band alone is the greatest thing. I had heard of the Owlet before but I wasn't into the idea of having to strap an electronic device to our baby. Wrapping her comfortably in the breathing band is so much simpler and less concerning. We'll be using the sleep sacks once we're done swaddling her. We love all the stats we get on the app like when she fell asleep or how many hours she slept for. I'm obsessed with the Sleep Dashboard and Nightly Summaries. Overall, the Nanit Pro is awesome and I would highly recommend it for any new parents!

It's easy to set up and use. The nanit insights provide great data about baby's sleep patterns. It also records some memories and montages automatically.I love being about to see my child's breathing rate at night. "Sleep when the baby sleeps" they say but as a new parent you are so anxious. This gave me some peace of mind.It also integrates well with the Amazon ecosystem. I can use the nanit show skill on my echo show and fire TV to easily see the monitor feed.The only negative I have is the sleep tracking feature sometimes says "searching for breathing wear" if it can no longer identify the pattern. This can happen if the band bunches up or shifts (or if older baby takes it off) I think they should have an optional alert when the pattern is lost so that parents can adjust the band or check on their child.
