Eyes On Baby
Modern baby monitors are more than just sound - video, movement detection, room temperature, sleep tracking. But they need setting up properly to work well.
💡 Pro tip: Position the camera above and to the side of the cot. Looking straight down gives the clearest view with least distortion.

🔧 DIY Tips
Setting up yourself? Here's what matters:
🔧 What you'll need
- Monitor and camera
- WiFi password
- Phone with app installed
- Cable clips
- Possibly drill for mounting
📐 Good setup
- Find position with full cot view
- Test angle before mounting
- Route cables along walls
- Keep cables 1m+ from cot
- Connect to WiFi
- Configure app settings
- Test video and audio
⚠️ Common DIY mistakes
- Cables within reach of cot
- Poor WiFi signal to camera
- Glare from window behind cot
- Camera pointing at light source
💡 Pro trick: Night vision works best with the camera above the cot. Side-mounted cameras get more IR reflection and grainier images.
Rather leave it to a pro? No problem - that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does baby monitor setup include?
Positioning the camera for the best view, mounting it securely, hiding cables safely out of reach, connecting to WiFi, and setting up the app on your phone.
Where should the camera be positioned?
Looking down at the cot from above, ideally corner-mounted. Far enough to see the whole sleeping area but close enough for clear image. Away from direct sunlight.
Is cable hiding important?
Yes - dangling cables near cots are a strangulation risk. We route cables safely along walls and tuck them out of reach.
Can you help with smart monitors?
Yes - WiFi setup, app configuration, notification settings. Most modern monitors are app-controlled and we can help get everything working.
