Digital baby monitors are used to keep an eye on your little one while doing household chores or working on the computer in the other room.  They are used to see whether your child is still sleeping, or is playing safely in her room, or just to see how your newborn is holding up.

Baby monitors come in different types, sizes, and brands:
1. Audio monitors
2. Audio/Video monitors
3. Audio/Video monitors with extras
Some even have extras such as room temperature gauges and have extra wireless extension sets that parents can bring with them like a walkie-talkie to any part of the house.  The signal may vary in all units but most baby monitors have a good enough connection.  Make sure to check whether the baby monitor can receive signals from all parts of your house.

Features of Baby Monitors
Baby monitors don’t come very cheap, and most parents who buy them are indeed very busy parents.  Here are some features that make up the best digital baby monitors:
* Clear connection and sound.
* Automatic channel frequency finder for uninterrupted connection.
* Small, portable size.
* Rechargeable, but also comes with AC/DC adaptor
* Baby’s room temperature indicator
* Night-light
* Soothing lullaby sounds

It’s important to know which among the digital baby monitors to use.  The audio baby monitor is cheaper compared to the audio/video monitors.  However, audio/video monitors with extras (i.e. temperature gauges and lullaby sounds) are better to allow a relaxing sleep for your baby.
