When I had my first child, I resisted getting a baby monitor. I thought it was one of those products I really didn’t need.  It wasn’t a baby essential, so I thought.  We lived in a small cabin; I could hear my baby anywhere in the house.  But what about if I wanted to go outside and work in the garden?

I did succumb and bought a baby monitor only emitted sound.  Baby monitors have come a long way since then!  Now there are digital video monitors!

We were sent a [amazon_link id=”B00DNCF02A” target=”_blank” ]Levana® Keera 3.5″ LCD, Pan/Tilt/Zoom Digital Baby Video Monitor with 24hr Battery, Touch Panel, Talk to Baby Intercom & SD Video Recording – 2 Camera System (32016)[/amazon_link] to try:

Keera™ (Ke-E-ra)

Meaning: Dark

Introducing Keera, Levana’s 3.5” touch panel Pan/Tilt/Zoom video baby monitor. The Keera monitor has the ability to record video and take pictures of your little one while viewing the live performance from your monitor. A powerful battery will last up to 24 hours while you and baby catch up on your extra winks. Touch panel buttons and simple graphic icons make selecting any of the many features easy and intuitive, even if you are distracted. Trust the Keera monitor to shed some light on the freedom that comes from doing more knowing your child is safe. .   

Smooth & Silent Pan/Tilt/Zoom Camera

Remember when your mother told you she had “eyes in the back of her head”? Now you can increase your own parental superpowers with a pan/tilt/zoom camera. Using the monitor from anywhere in your home, you can adjust the camera view horizontally 300° and tilt vertically 110°. When you find what you are looking for, zoom in to examine what you are seeing in even greater detail. This smooth, silent adjustable camera gives you powers that are out of this world and will be a handy secret weapon as your little one becomes even more mobile and curious.

This baby monitor is so much more! It is so cool that you can use the camera to zoom in, as well as to record and capture images to later upload onto your computer.  It is amazing!

A digital video monitor can give parents much greater peace of mind than the simple sound one I had.   At any moment, you can make sure your baby is in the correct sleeping position and safe.  It is also useful when baby is having floor time and you need to cook dinner or do other chores or practice yoga.

Thankfully, Levana is not only concerned about your baby’s safety but the environment too. The side of the box says:

I think had I had a digital video monitor like the Levana Keera when my children were babies, I would have spent even more time watching them sleep!  I just wouldn’t have had to be right next to do them to do so.
