Is baby too hot?

This baby monitor can sense the room temperature and show you when your baby is in danger.

I want to know my baby is a safe temperature

Your baby will need to sleep a lot especially in the first few months of their lives. And like you, they will sleep much better if they’re not too hot or too cold.

But more importantly, babies who get too hot are known to be at an increased risk from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, also known as SIDS or cot death. Young babies are completely unable to regulate their body temperature by themselves. Instead they rely upon you to manage this for them instead. But your own internal sense of temperature is no use for this. Think how different it is testing bathwater with your hand or elbow.

Keep your home at a comfortable baby temperature. NHS Direct recommends 16 to 20 degrees C. The rule of thumb: one more layer than you would also need is also sound advice.

A comfortable room temperature will not only help them sleep safely, you all get a better nights sleep. It may help with your child’s health, soothing eczema, other skin conditions and many respiratory illnesses.

The temperature display on this video baby monitor is colour coded making it the easiest to read of everything we’ve tested. We can recommend it solely for the temperature features, but the video capability is certainly a welcome bonus. With this baby monitor you can relax, being able to check on your baby day or night, from anywhere in the house, but also know the temperature of their room is always safe.

Unlike almost every other monitor on the market, with this model you don’t have to remember what the safe upper and lower temperature settings should be as they are pre-set. There is no scope for confusion or misunderstanding. You can see at-a-glance whether your baby’s room is too hot (red light), too cold (blue light) or just right (yellow light).

The monitor uses digital technology and can automatically switch between 100 channels to attain the best connection. It is easy to set up, is both battery and mains operated, is very portable and you will be up and working very quickly.

This outstanding Temperature Monitor with additional video features will ensure you always know, at a glance, that your baby’s room temperature is safe. It is the tool you need for your baby to sleep comfortably and safely.
