Nanit Changed Our Lives
on February 20, 2026
Posted by: Camilo C.
We purchased the Nanit Baby Monitor and Sound + Light Machine before our baby Felix was born and it absolutely changed our lives. Now we can monitor our baby sleep, naps, control the sounds that he hears and the brightness and color of his light from the palm of our hand. We can monitor as much or as little as we want from anywhere since the app is so easy to use and all you need is internet of any kind. The app is so easy to use that even my mother who is 70 years old and lives in Argentina, came to help with the baby and loved the Nanit so much that she continues to monitor Felix from across the globe and even bought a Nanit for my niece who was just born and also lives in Argentina. The Nanit not only monitors the baby movement, but also any sound, and it provides a cristal clear image so you can see everything that is happening. The Nanit Baby Monitor and Sound + Light Machine is an absolute game changer providing peace of mind when you need it the most. If you want to be able to sleep while taking care of a newborn, the only way to do it is by purchasing this amazing device. You will thank me later.
We were searching for a monitor that we could see both babies one screen or do a split screen function. We loved that Nanit offered that! We also purchased the subscription that allows you to play back the video and that has been an amazing function to have. The quality is great. We haven't tried the chest monitor yet since we haven't had our 2nd baby yet but are due anyway now. Excited to give that a try!
I'm a firefighters wife and that means I am home alone at night a lot! With Nanit, I was given the peace of mind to feel confident that my baby is ok in her own room. The breathing monitor and emergency alert option also made me feel like I could truly get rest. The insights and data helps me track napping and sleeping patterns to know I am putting her down at appropriate wake window times and that she is getting enough sleep overnight. I'm also able to look up quickly what time she woke up and the sleep score she got during her night sleep. Without nanit I would feel more stressed out and wouldn't get good sleep myself. Now that she is 2, I was still able to move the nanit to work on a twin size bed for the continued peace of mind. I also just bought a second camera and the monitor for my newborn so that I can track both children on one unit. Since my husband is gone overnight he is able to check the monitor while he is at work overnight for his own peace of mind as well.
Do not waste your money on the Home Screen. Ours was not even lasting through two naps for a 6 week old ( so they are short naps ). I contacted support thinking my battery was faulty. Nope. Was informed they get 3-6 hours if screen is on lowest light and audio on. “Nearly” 24 hours if screen is off and just audio on. What? A parent did not approve this device. Defeats the purpose of it since I’m constantly having to find a plug in.
Love having a physical monitor so that I don't have to pull up the camera on my phone also great for days I leave my son with a sitter- so much easier to give a monitor rather than asking them to download an app. However, the monitor itself doesn't perform great. Constant lagging and at times the screen wont come on even though I push the button over and over. Great concept. Disappointing execution.
Love the size! The picture is clear and it’s most helpful when I just want it on while I sleep. Find it super useful when Grandma is watching the baby too, because I can just leave it on for her and everyone feels so much better. Recommend the monitor!
Looking forward to having the screen for babysitters and family that come in for care! Giving 4 stars (instead of 5), because I would love the option to add an activity/log care from the monitor!
Great monitor to see baby from anywhere. Having the app is great when someone else is home watching baby. However, we find that the connection cuts in and out often. We also didn’t realize you can’t use it in public WiFi, so we had to buy another monitor to use when traveling. We purchased the handheld monitor but it did very quickly. Best to keep it plugged in. Nice to have an option other than the app on your phone.
