1. Keeping Your Family Safe With A
Nanny Camera
How to protect your family

2. Protecting The Family And The
Home With Nanny Camera
Nanny cameras were originally
introduced to allow parents to
monitor the childcare that was
being provided by nannies in
the home. The term has since
expanded to mean any video
monitoring device that is
installed discretely in the home
by the homeowner. The
devices are often hidden in
locations like a bookshelf, a
planter or even inside of a
stuffed animal.

3. Protecting The Family And The
Home With Nanny Camera
The videos that the device
produces are recorded on a
digital drive or a traditional
cassette recorder. This could
require running cables from
the camera to the recorder
although there are an
increasing number of wireless
models available. The camera
can be used to help keep a
family safe and secure in a
variety of ways.

4. Childcare
The most popular use for nanny cameras
is still the monitoring of children in the
home. Parents who must work during the
day or who need to be outside of the
home for long periods of time can use the
camera to record the actions of a
childcare provider. Cameras can be
placed in different locations to see exactly
what the nanny is doing when not being
directly supervised. The recordings that
are made could show a person who does
not watch the children correctly, who
takes items from the home without
permission or who brings strangers into
the home. The footage can also detect
cases of abuse. The recordings can be
used to make hiring and firing decisions
about childcare providers. The footage
can also be used as evidence in legal
proceedings when the actions that are
recorded are criminal in nature.

5. Home Security
Hidden cameras in the home
can be used to monitor the
premises throughout the day.
The newest cameras are able
to communicate wirelessly with
a computer or other device.
The footage can be streamed
live to a remote website. This
allows a homeowner to watch
the footage live from work or on
a capable mobile device.
Certain types of cameras can
be set to activate only when
there is motion in the room.

6. Home Security
These cameras sometimes have
features that will send text
messages or emails when
motion is detected. This type of
camera can be used to detect
burglars or other unauthorized
people who enter a home without
the permission of the
homeowner. Intruders who are
caught on camera early enough
can actually be intercepted in the
home by the police.

7. Outdoor Property
Most of the nanny cameras that are
available will work in any location. This
means the camera can be placed
outside in a safe location to record what
is going on in a yard or on a lawn. This
will help homeowners to identify the
source of different problems. Burrows or
dens that hold problematic wildlife can
be located. Neighbors who allow pets to
use a lawn as a bathroom can be
identified. The cameras have even been
used to catch neighborhood vandals
who regularly destroy property or spray
paint fences. Homeowners who are
using the camera in this way must be
careful to limit the viewable area to
primarily private property since there can
be legal issues with recordings that
involve individuals who are on public
property.
