It’s true what they say, in the blink of an eye your precious babies are all grown up and making their own paths through life. It all happens so quickly; it literally makes your head spin. As parents we start the worrying and the memory creating from the moment we find out we are expecting – from monthly check-ups and monitoring in utero to the monitoring of their breathing movements, sleep patterns and behavior out in the real world. You can check your baby's breathing with our baby breathing monitors.  As a parent or caregiver a baby monitor gives you peace of mind and assurance about the safety and well-being of your littles ones, as it allows you to keep an eye on them whilst still giving you the opportunity to attend to other things. With this little magical device, you can easily watch them snoozing, playing in their crib and/or even listen to them murmur as they put themselves back to sleep (which is pretty adorable and amazing too). It is also a great “spying” tool that helps you capture all the little things they do and say, which is fantastic material for your memory journal. Our kids heads are filled with thoughts, ideas, notions and words that they are just dying to share with us and they are an exploration of life, entertaining, at times boring and more often than not have us rolling on the floor in hysterics (and sometimes I mean literally rolling on the floor). Through your Babysense V65 HD Baby Monitor Camera you will be able to start capturing, these not to be missed moments, early on and document them while still fresh in your memory. The benefit of using a video monitor instead of an audio monitor is that not only will you be able to hear the laughter bouncing off the walls, but with the Babysense V65 high resolution 5 “ LCD you’ll see the smile that lights up the room too. The crystal-clear HD picture quality will help you see in vivid detail what was happening when your little one uttered their words of wisdom.Not only can you watch and listen whilst your little one is playing and freely speaking their minds, but you can communicate with them through the Two-Way talk function and see their reactions when they hear you through the camera. This a great tool to enjoy real time two-way communication and is a fun way to set the stage for your little one to express themselves without feeling like they are being watched (even though they really are). With the option of using 2 cameras you can either listen in and monitor 2 rooms or if you prefer place the 2 cameras in 1 room capturing 2 different angles. It is best to place the cameras on a flat surface e.g. on the top of a chest of drawers/changing table or mount them in the corner on the wall using the provided wall mounting kit. Please ensure that any excess cord is secured and is not visible or reachable. The secure 2.4GHz technology used, together with the fact that the V65 does not require WiFi or the internet to work, gives you extra security knowing you are the only one watching and talking to your kids and capturing these precious moments. The memory book that the use of the Babysense V65 Baby Video Monitor helps you create is not only a book of milestones but rather the small, everyday things that happen that you do not want to forget. You can write down specific stories, events and the funny or seemingly simple things they say, as well as letters to your children as to how you are feeling, what they mean to you and what you wish for them – it may seem a little silly now but when your kids are older and they read them they’ll see how much they are loved and how much you cherished every moment, from the milestones to the simple every day happenings. Even if your kids are a little older it is never too late to start recording special and funny memories for them. You do not need a fancy book to start, just some paper or a small book and pen – that is it! This is not a journal just for the sake of a journal but an opportunity to write to your kids from the heart and tell them the full story of their life. The standard baby books are wonderful and I would encourage you to keep one of those, as well, as they record the major events and milestones, but this memory journal will fill in the blanks and provide the details of the full story – the beautiful moments, the funny moments, the inappropriate moments, the overwhelming moments and the emotional moments. Capturing what you hear and see through your Babysense Baby Video Monitor (in regular view or in Zoom view, so as not to miss their adorable facial expressions) is a chance to create a treasure that both you and your kids will love looking through.

Having the best video baby monitor is like a right of passage into parenthood. From the moment our kids are born, health care professionals overwhelm us with a list of safe sleeping practices to adhere to baby on their back, nothing inside the crib, tight-fitting sheets, and so on. And though we follow doctor’s orders, we proceed to worry anyway. That is why video monitors have become a must-have gadget for your baby.  Video monitors provide caregivers with some peace of mind that our baby is safe when we’re not around. We want the very best for our babies, and most parents will agree that we worry most when our babies are sleeping. Having a reliable baby monitor makes nap time, overnight, or anytime you need to leave the room, easier.  There is so much to learn when becoming a parent, and knowing what you should be looking for in terms of choosing the best baby video monitor isn’t easy. That is why we’ve compiled all of BabySense’s past and present research to provide you with what features are most important in a nursery camera in 2020.  What Is a Baby Monitor? A baby video monitor is a system that enables you to listen to or see your baby while they are in another room. Babysense offers a variety of different monitors, including audio, video, and movement monitors. Key Baby Monitor Features to Look For  Motion sensors, on-screen notifications, and two-way audio are just some of the important features a baby monitor should include. Finding a monitor and sensor pad combination that incorporates these important features is simple. Enjoy peace of mind while your baby sleeps, with the V65 Babysense Video and Movement Monitor. Parents will love this feature-packed breathing and video monitor as it alerts you if the baby stops moving, and tracks the most subtle changes such as breathing. The Babysense 7 Breathing & Split screen & video baby monitors with it's motorized pan-tilt-zoom, includes under the mattress motion sensors, a 5-inch monitor, precise night vision, and two-way talk. Babysense is a highly sensitive non-touch baby breathing movement monitor that detects irregularities in breathing and movement. Babysense parents can attest to the peace of mind associated with our reliable movement sensors. Let us take a look at the key features that make Babysense a trusted favorite amongst parents. #1 The Sharpness of Video and Audio  Video monitors prevent unnecessary night visits, which helps your baby sleep longer through the night. That is why having a camera system that provides both clarity of sound and video image coming through from the cameras to the monitor itself is crucial. After all, the point of a baby monitor is to be able to see and hear your baby without interruptions.  The V65 video monitor bundle includes two HD wide-angle cameras and a large 5-inch 720P HD color quality display monitor that lets you see a clear live full-motion video. The monitor itself includes many features that make checking on your baby as easy as possible - like a remote pan scan and digital tilt function which allows for viewing the entire room and a 2x zoom for getting a closeup view of your baby.  Background noise can be distracting to you and your baby. That is why it’s important to note the built-in sound activation feature that turns the speaker on only when there’s a noise detected, which won’t distract your sleep with ambient noise. The voice feature also includes two-way talkback audio as well as a lullaby music option to soothe your child.  #2 Covering Range Having a long-range monitor can help you stay connected with your baby - no matter how far away you are. Long-range baby monitors are particularly important if you live in a larger home, or plan to use the monitor outdoors, which can be great during the summer months. A baby monitor with a long-distance range helps parents feel close, no matter where they are in their home.  Babysene’s V65 bundle uses the latest and innovative 2.4ghz FHS technology to provide a long-range of 960 feet and an out of range warning alert. #3 Multi-Camera Viewing Multi-camera viewing is great for families who want to keep an eye on their children in more than one room. You can monitor your baby in up to four rooms from multiple angles which all feed to one monitor to help you keep an eye on several rooms at once.  Got multiple little ones? We know how tricky it can be to keep your eyes and ears on all your children, which is why our V43 split camera lets you see two images at once on your display screen. It’s the perfect solution! Babysense lets you connect up to four cameras to one monitor, which makes it all that much easier for parents to easily keep an eye on their kids. With the push of a button, you can toggle between views of each room. #4 Battery Life Keeping an eye on your sleeping baby is tiring enough without having to deal with a low battery alert on your baby monitor. After all, who wants to frantically find a charger in the middle of the night while making sure not to wake up your sleeping baby? Good battery life is a key concern for many parents looking to buy a baby monitor.  Babysense provides a battery you can rely on. With a rechargeable battery and a power-saving mode, which is turned on based on the sounds in the room (VOX), you can rest assured. The parent unit shows a battery level indicator on screen as well as a low battery warning. #5 Night Vision Video Technology & Temperature Let’s face it, most of the time you will be checking on your baby it’s going to be dark. Night vision guarantees a clearer image when the lights are low or off.  When the baby’s asleep in a dark room, you should expect nothing less but to be able to see them clearly.  Babysense uses automatic infra-red for night-time viewings. Our wide-angle camera offers clear HD footage, even in night-vision mode. Another great addition is temperature monitoring with high and low-temperature alerts. You will be able to get real-time data on the temperature in your child’s room, which is essential in creating a healthy sleeping atmosphere. This feature is great on hot summer days and cold winter nights, giving you the chance to adjust the temperature to keep your baby comfortable.  #6 Grows With Your Baby Baby monitors have come a long way in terms of technology. With infrared night vision, two-way audio, digital zoom, long battery life, and remote access through your parent unit, there are many uses for your Babysense baby monitor. We understand how important it is for a baby product to be able to grow with your child and not just be used for a short time. That is why we’ve designed our V65 to be versatile. You can double your Babysense as a nanny camera or can even use it as a home security device. Simply install the camera system anywhere in your house and use it on your terms.  #7 Movement Monitor & Safety Features Babysense’s motion monitors are a necessary measure of protection and safety for your baby, and when combined with safe sleep practices, it provides parents the ultimate peace of mind.  These unique and revolutionized sensors are easy-to-use and differentiate between normal sleep breathing patterns and those that can be dangerous.
