Hellobaby

"I love my HelloBaby monitor."
·
"I LOVE it."

"It’s been perfect so far and fits your description. I’ll add- this is really durable too!"
·
"Good"
·
"Fairly cheap with option to buy 2 cameras. Has night vision that’s super easy to see and volume that changes color level with how loud baby is being. I can be downstairs and not lose connection to upstairs and the camera can move remotely if baby moves to follow them without me having to come upstairs to change it. And my favorite- monitor doesn’t need charged everyday. It lasts awhile especially if I don’t need the camera and am only listening to it since you can blacken the screen."
