Spy Technology: Keep Your Baby Safe

Spy technology used to be only for the elite. We think of James Bond and his recording devices in lapels or buttons. Governments across the globe continually use spy technology to keep their citizens safe and to learn more about the actions of enemy countries. The practice of spying on both friends and enemies alike has been in existence for a very long time.

Now, mothers can benefit from this same spying equipment and technologies in the comfort of their babies’ nursery or play room. Hidden cameras and web-based equipment can be used to ensure their child is being cared for safely or is sleeping soundly. There is perhaps no better use for this type of equipment then to ensure the safety of one’s own child.

If you have a nanny that regularly visits your home to care for your newborn or young children, are concerned about her performance and would like to check up on her without her realizing it, you could employ the use of a hidden device. The small camera could be hooked up to the Internet and voila! you could look in on the nanny from your smart phone or office computer.

Perhaps a more honest way of approaching the situation is to let the nanny know that you have placed cameras and surveillance equipment in various locations throughout the house. Inform him or her that it is merely for the child’s safety as well as the safety of the home, and that it will be recording during the day. Your nanny might appreciate knowing that they are being monitored and can have a back up opinion in case of a safety situation that may arise.

Most mothers and fathers of newborns are aware of the helpfulness of baby monitors to ensure that their child doesn’t fall victim to sudden infant death syndrome. Some monitors are very sensitive and will detect even the smallest of the baby’s movements. Other monitors merely act as a listening device and speaker, listening in on the baby’s breathing.

Spy technology can be put to good use in replacing the once popular monitors. Imagine having a small image of your child projected onto your phone, computer or onto a screen next to your bed. Seeing the child breathing and resting well will give even more reason to sleep as soundly as your child does.

This same equipment will be a comfort for the parent that has to travel away from home frequently. Being able to watch your infant sleep from a hotel room on the other side of the continent or world provides a great sense of peace to many parents. It can also ease some of the stress on the parent that remains at home with the infant.

In this fast paced techno-centric world, spy technology is being used in a variety of new ways. Employ it in the simplest way in your own home by using it to monitor the safety and health of your baby.
