Great baby camera for any parent!

This camera is a great camera for any parent, new or old. This camera stand set is a new design, which I believe to be an upgrade from the old tripod design. It’s much more stable and leaves less of a footprint. The base is heavy and solid, which you want it to be to be able to prevent tipping of the camera. The stand itself feels of a lightweight plastic, which is good for portability, but time will tell on durability. I also wish the 45-deg point of the stand was adjustable so we can have more flexibility in the angles of the camera when our child grows older. But I also do like some of the plastic tubing that runs the wire along the floor for a more clean look, and to prevent a trip hazard. Overall, a great thoughtful design.

The Nanit camera itself still use the plug-in design, which connects two power prongs, one USB-C for connection and one plastic hook type thing. It’s the same plastic hook thing that I have on my more portable Nanit stand, and on that stand the hook had somehow broke without falling or anything…so I’m not the biggest fan of the plastic design. Another reason is that my toddler sometimes grabs and shakes the stand, and the camera subsequently comes a little loose – never to the point of falling off, but to the point of losing the temperature/humidity monitoring.

I love the app features for Nanit. Being able to track when the baby gets put down, when he wakes up, how long he slept, and how many times he woke up and when is key to our sleep planning. I also love how Nanit tailors it’s tips on how to help our child sleep whenever it notices that he had a not-so-great sleep/nap. And lastly, I like the memory clips of our child. I would highly recommend Nanit as your go-to baby camera.
