 Onni Smart Care – not just a baby monitor, but a whole baby monitoring system, has been designed by busy parents who know first-hand what a juggling act it can be to stay on top of what’s going on with the next generation. The parents behind Onni think there’s more to smart baby monitoring than just seeing and hearing the child, which is why they’ve invented a new, versatile baby monitoring system with HD quality video streaming, alerts and online tools that help parents monitor, measure and stay connected. With Onni, parents can keep track of when the baby last fed, slept or had a nappy change, enabling them to be better prepared to meet the baby’s unique needs as well as pinpoint changes in patterns. Parents can also keep track of the child’s growth and developmental milestones and see how the growth correlates with WHO growth charts. What’s more, virtual visiting hours can be granted to those eager grandparents who just can’t visit enough. The first Onni Smart Care baby monitor, Twinkle, is launching at The Baby Show. Price: £99.
