All You Need to Know About Nanny Cams
Do a quick search on cases of child abuse by
nannies, and youll find out that the evidence is
staggering. As your little one is unable to
express his/her pain, you cannot leave anything
up to chance. Hidden nanny cameras allow you to
keep an eye on your toddlers. Heres what experts
at a reputed San Jose security guard company have
to say.

1 - Types
Among a wide variety of nanny cameras, making the
right choice is important. All such cameras come
with the same basic function- to record a video
from a hidden place. However, their effectiveness
is likely to vary from brand to brand. A typical
nanny camera can be placed inside a stuffed
animal, alarm clock or even a smoke detector.
Their resolution and ease of use are also likely
to vary. To look for the right nanny cam, youll
have to consider video quality, design and
recording options.

2 - Legal Concerns
With regards to nanny cameras, there are
different laws in each state. As a rule of thumb,
you have the right to video record any activity
that takes place in your private residence.
However, audio recording is not allowed in some
states, such as California, Washington and
Illinois. These states require that the person
whose speech is about to be recorded should be
made aware about it. Therefore, you need to check
up on your local laws on recording audio and
video in your home before installing a nanny cam.

3 - Maintenance
Nanny camera is a type of spy camera and is easy
to maintain. You will have to clean the lens
occasionally and replace the batteries. Keep an
eye on the SD card as it stores all recorded
videos. Depending on the size of SD card and the
volume of videos recorded, it is a good idea to
periodically remove your SD card, transfer all
videos to a computer or an external storage
device and reinsert the free-memory card back
into your camera.

4 - Effectiveness
The most effective nanny cams are the ones that
have motion detection technology. This allows the
camera to only record and save footage in which
the person is moving around. Remember to keep
transferring the recordings to an external device
and keeping the SD card memory clean for further
recording and storage.

5 - Integration
Modern nanny cameras also come with an app
integration feature. This means that you can
view/access the webcam from anywhere in the world
through your smart phone. Similarly,
app-integrated nanny cams offer better recording
options as they are relatively easier to adjust.
A drawback of this system is that it is
complicated to set up.

6 - Concealment
The most significant quality of all nanny camera
features is its ability to remain concealed. They
should be small enough to actively disguise in
all objects. On a similar note, the purpose of a
nanny camera is to keep an eye on the babys room
and the nanny. If you plan on to tell your nanny
beforehand that theres a camera in the babys
room, the whole purpose of a nanny camera is
defeated.
