Don’t just take our word for it — read what the Ovia community is saying about their favorite baby monitors!


Best video monitor: Infant Optics DXR-8 Video Baby Monitor

“Love that it doesn’t rely on wifi and has a wide range.”

“Great if you have a second child — you can just add a camera vs. an entire other monitor.”

“We love the clear picture on the monitor and that it has an option to talk to the baby as we’re watching. It’s easy to carry around the monitor and the camera is very durable, as I’ve accidentally knocked it off the crib onto the floor multiple times and it’s still great.”

Best sound machine: Owlet Dream Duo

“Very helpful. When baby’s oxygen saturation drops it will make a loud alarming sound to inform you so you could check your baby for any distress.”

“Peace of mind for many of my mom friends especially now that owlet has worked out all the “bugs”.

“Love that I can check in from anywhere.”
