Thread: "Do not buy the Nanit baby monitor"
We love ours and have loved it since our first baby was born. We got one for our second kid after trying to go with a cheaper WiFi monitor and ended up switching to Nanit. I don’t feel the need to always have the kids showing on my phone so it doesn’t impact my battery. Also, we have the Amazon show and you can link the monitor to that if you want continuous visibility or the ability to listen. When we’ve had babysitters, it’s nice to be able to pull up the kids on our phones while we’re out to check in. I could see how the ability to travel could be annoying. For my older kid, I accidentally broke the original stand and had to get one of the flex stands which I think would be better for travel since it’s small and gives full visibility of a room.
Thread: "Do not buy the Nanit baby monitor"
I love my nanit. I think about how much I love it in a daily basis. Without it, it would be impossible to track my baby's sleep, his wake windows, how long it takes him to fall asleep when I put him in his crib. Without it, sleep training would have been sooooo much more difficult. We also use the flex stand when we are traveling.

Yep we use the flex stand and have traveled many, many times with it.
Thread: "Is Nanit baby monitor really worth the hype as a gift for new parents?"
I really like the Nanit. The breathing band function gave me great piece of mind (we stopped using it at 18 months. I like that the white noise machine is built in to the camera too. It's really convenient. You just have to make sure the breathing band is snug. If it's too loose, you'll get false alarms, and those are loud and terrifying. I liked getting the data on wake ups and what not. It helped me figure out my son's sleeping pattern and general nap schedule. Traveling is easy with the Flex Stand, so long as the place you're staying at has a secure password-protected network. As for getting hacked, make sure your wifi network is secure. Make sure no one random is connecting to it.
Thread: "Which Baby Monitor??!!"
We really like the Nanit too. It does use wifi, but my partner took extra measures to secure things to avoid hacks. I wish it had its own receiver, for that we just use an old iPhone. Edit: if you get it, get the bundle with the floor stand, it’s been a game changer, having the Birds Eye view of our baby from overhead
Thread: "Our baby monitor crapped out MOTN without us knowing while LO is sick. Taking brand recommendations pls."
We have the short/flex stand for travel. You can buy the camera and short stand if you don’t want the wall mount or tall stand. That’s also the cheaper option. Other than the camera working well, it’s been pretty seamless for anyone (our family, caregiver) to use with the app.
Thread: "Do not buy the Nanit baby monitor"
We stayed in a suite style hotel with family that had a bedroom LO slept in. It was really nice to use the Nanit on the flex stand for her naps. However the wifi was an issue so we had to connect my husbands computer, set up a hotspot, and connect the Nanit to that
Thread: "Our baby monitor crapped out MOTN without us knowing while LO is sick. Taking brand recommendations pls."
Nanit. Love it. Recommend it to everyone. The only time we’ve had an issue is when the power went out as it is WiFi dependent. However, when we lost power we just slept in a room next to her nursery. We also have the travel stand so it travels with us quite well. We pay for the Nanit plan that offers sleep data as well. We’ve been very happy with this monitor.
Thread: "Baby monitor options?"
We have the Nanit and I like it more than I thought it would. We also bought the breathing monitor and flex stand and am very happy with the purchase now (don’t tell my husband 😂)
Thread: "Nanit baby monitor reviews?"
Probably. I was like 30 seconds away from getting the flex stand and travel case a month ago when it was super on sale so we could use at families’ houses, but then I realized id need to disassemble the wall mount and put it back together every time we moved it, so I ended up not getting it. I think if I had the floor mount version, I’d also get the flexstand/travel one for cases like that!
