Recent news about a couple catching nanny mistreating their 13 month old baby shattered the faith of many parents. The nanny was hired through a national childcare service on the Internet. After a few days of her hiring, parents noticed certain behavioral changes in the child and decided to install nanny cams. Although, initially they were a little apprehensive about installing the spy cam, but later installed it for their child's safety. The little child's father concealed the nanny cam and microphone inside the pair of speakers and placed it atop the television set.



The recording from the nanny camera showed the nanny slapping, pushing and even pinching the toddler. The strong evidence taken from the nanny camera proved the nanny guilty, and she was charged with cruelty towards children in the first degree. There are many horrifying stories where psycho nannies hit and jerk little children. Statistics confirm thousands of children becoming the victim of ruthless nannies every year. In spite of knowing the stories about ruthless nanny behavior, all of us are not lucky to leave our children under the care of parents or reliable relatives.

An electronic nanny cam will require the placement of hidden cameras in strategic places all over the house. The nanny is sure to go around with the baby in tow. The first place of course is the nursery. Set a nanny cam overhead the crib and another next to the changing table. Other places are the kitchen, dining room, and the living room. Don't forget to place a nanny cam near the door. You will be able to monitor if the nanny is receiving forbidden guests.

Choose a digital receiver for your nanny cam. The images are recorded in real time and the movements are quicker and realistic. A surveillance system with audio transmitters is ideal with a baby around. You can check if the nanny is attending to the baby or if the baby is in pain.
