A good monitor can bring peace of mind, but no monitor prevents SIDS. Get the safe-sleep basics from Red Nose, then decide if a smart monitor like Nanit is right for your family.
From Red Nose, Australia's safe-sleep authority:
Always put baby to sleep on their back, in their own safe sleep space.
Sleep baby in a cot in your room for the first six months.
Red Nose says there's no evidence home monitors, including breathing monitors, prevent SIDS or SUDI. They're not a substitute for safe sleep.
Seeing and hearing baby from another room, sleep tracking and peace of mind.

Some features need a paid plan after an included period. Check before you buy.
We focus on Nanit, a premium smart monitor with Australian pricing, and we're honest about its cost.
