Baby monitor recommendations please :)

[Emalouise25111]

Hi everyone,

Was hoping for some baby monitor recommendations, specifically ones where you can turn the brightness on the screen right down.

Currently we have one of the VTech ones which is great, very clear screen etc but I’ve turned the brightness right down and it’s still soooo bright and I’m convinced the light is making me wake repeatedly.

I think you can turn the screen off but for anxiety reasons I prefer to keep it on at all times and I also have to face it rather than turning away from it (sounds crazy I know but I like to watch LO on the screen as I’m falling asleep).

Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem and managed to find a monitor to resolve it?

Thank you!

My BT one is really bright even on its dimmest setting, so don’t go for that!

I’ve got the Leapfrog LF920HD and I’m really impressed so far. Doesn’t need wifi to work (bonus in my ancient, thick walled house), range is excellent, monitor is really good and it does go really dim if you want it to and has a dim mode too. I’ve only had it 2 weeks and wish I’d had it sooner. X
