I had major fomo when all these over the crib monitors came out and that I didn’t get to have that view of Tess when she was a baby. Also, that I couldn’t remotely connect to her monitor, just to the nest which was a whole room view. I wanted to be all up in her face when I couldn’t be with her!

Then I went to order the Nanit this time and realized that I had to use an iPad or phone to access ANY view of this baby and I felt awkward about that. I didn’t want to have to download anything on babysitters phones, didn’t trust that they wouldn’t be ON their phone and I just didn’t want to have to whip out our iPads.

I found this monitor which has a full room view (purpose of the nest), an over the crib view (super cool and millennial) and I can access using a monitor OR on my phone. It literally serves every purpose of a regular monitor, over the crib monitor and nest camera. Worth every penny so far!
