A baby monitor, also known as a baby alarm, is a radio system used to remotely listen to sounds made by an infant.
The transmitter, equipped with a microphone, is placed near to the child and the receiver equipped with a speaker, is carried by, or near to, the person caring for the infant.
Some baby monitors are bi-directional, using transceivers that allow the caregiver to speak back to the baby (parent talk-back). Some allow music to be played to the child.________
One of the primary uses of baby monitors allows attendants to hear when an infant wakes, while out of immediate hearing distance of the infant.
For those worried about sudden infant death, a monitor should only be used under the supervision of a pediatrician or other doctor.
Although commonly used, there is no evidence that these monitors prevent SIDS, and many doctors believe they provide a false sense of security.
Infants and young children can often be heard over a baby monitor in crib talk, in which they talk to themselves. This is a normal part of practicing their language skills.________
