When my daughters were babies we tiptoed around the house, praying not to wake them. Carrying a little monitor around with me alerted me when they were awake, but I was often found opening their squeaky door to peek in on them…which also often found them startled awake. These days there is a FANTASTIC option which I only wish I’d had, the Summer Infant Baby Touch® 2 Digital Color Video Monitor.
Favourite Features
The Baby Touch® 2 Digital Colour Video Monitor reminds me of a miniature tablet; with touch screen capabilities on the 3.5″ video screen, you can keep an eye on your baby without having to peek in on him and risk the chance of waking. Thank you to Stacey of ThisLilPiglet for photos of her gorgeous wee man.
The monitor is easy to use; once you initially plug in the monitor and set the video monitor into position, the receiver monitor can easily manipulate the direction of the camera to move around the room remotely.
The receiver displays the room temperature so you can ensure baby won’t be overheated and by the push of a button, a fussy baby can be soothed by the sound of your voice remotely.
The video monitor automatically converts to black and white night vision and continues to make monitoring my baby easy from day to night.
Interestingly enough, the Baby Touch® 2 Digital Color Video Monitor works well for sneaky toddlers too. On one specific morning not too long ago, Stacey from ThisLilPiglet could hear her baby chattering only to view her toddler sitting inside his crib, books in hand. Before long she was explaining the pictures in the book to her baby brother. Had she not been able to watch closely from the monitor and to speak in to remind her to sit still, she might have been worried but I watched for awhile and watched a very touching moment unfold before her.
Award-winning touch screen baby monitor is the ONLY one of its kind. Featuring an innovative, high resolution 3.5″ color video screen and an easy-to-use touchscreen interface, the Baby Touch Boost gives parents controls right at their fingertips to conveniently and securely see baby, day or night.
Monitor Features
- 100% digital technology for privacy and security, with a range up to 600-feet
- Expandable system – add cameras to monitor multiple children or rooms, up to 4 total (extra cameras sold separately, item #28850) with video and audio auto-scan between rooms

- Handheld portability with rechargeable batteries, and convenient re-charge docking base, built-in belt clip, and kick-stand for tabletop convenience
- Adjustable volume and brightness controls
- Sound activated LED lights, power-save video on/off and low battery and out of range indicators.
- Wall-mounting hardware included, adjustable/swivel design allows for optimal positioning on baby.

We are expecting a baby boy THIS WINTER!!!! It would make my year to win this monitor!! :) Thank you for hosting this giveaway!!
Having a monitor would be good to see if the kid is just a bit awake or fully out and about so to speak.

it wouldn’t help me, but it would help my daughter’s friend. She’s going to be a new and young (18) mom..she can use all the help she can get!
My niece is expecting her first baby in January … it would make a wonderful gift for her!
it would help my sister in law with her third baby

This would be awesome for my daughter. With two new grandsons we need all the eyes we can get.
My niece just had a baby so this would really come in handy for her.
Would love love this to watch my monkey!! Can just imagine what she does!! Thanks for the chance :)
I can’t beleive how fancy baby stuff is these days! This monitor would be a great help to any new parents to give them peace of mind. I would love to give this away as a gift to someone with a new baby!

My friend is a new mom again after, 10 years, this would be soooo awesome to share with her and her family. What a chance to see how far we’ve come, and peace of mind for Mom & Dad.
I would give this to by best friend who just had her baby. She lives on a farm and needs to do chores, so it would be perfect to watch the baby and do chores at the same time.
My husband and I adopted two children who both have autism. They are now ten and require constant supervision. As any mom knows there are lots of other things that require attention and sadly I dont have eyes in the back of my head. This monitor would allow the boys the “freedom” and “independence” to play out of my line of vision without actually being unsupervised. Win-win for them and I

I’d giv it to my friend who is expecting.
my niece is expecting in December, this would be ideal for her.. baby’s room is upstairs with rest of bedrooms, so she could keep an eye on babe, while she is in kitchen, living room or whereever
we have a new grandchild so added peace of mind
I would give this to my Cousin that is expecting
I would give it to my cousin that way i’d know the baby was being taken care of well

My brother’s expecting his first baby and if I win I’m gifting this to the parents to be as a surprise! :)
I wouold give this to my sister, she could use it very much. I love the idea of not only being able to hear but see baby too.
This would help me because my baby is a bit of a monkey and I would love to be able to SEE her with a monitor, rather than just hear her. Sometimes I check on her because I need to see what she is up to, but then I sometimes ruin her sleep because of it – if I could see her without having to go in and check that would be awesome!!
My nephew and his wife are expecting their first in the New Year and I am sure as first time parents this would help give them some peace of mind.
this would help me as the baby would be in a different room and would give me great peace of mind seeing her
My niece is expecting a baby late January and this would be an excellent gift for her.
She wouldn’t have to constantly walk up stairs to check on her baby.
This would help me for a baby shower gift for my brother and his girlfriend who are expecting their first baby.
thanks
It would allow me to see what our little one is doing in her room. It’s not always easy to tell with our monitor
A lot! My baby sleeps very soundly. I’d love to be able to check on her without waking her up.
It would help me have peace of mind and would save me from accidentally disturbing little one by going in and checking to see if they’re okay if I don’t hear them.
I’d give it to my niece as a baby gift.
It would help me keep an eye on our future new addition.
I have a new baby that i would love to use this for

This would actually be a gret gift for my nephew and his gf who are soon to be new paretns and they are only 19. This would put my mind at east to be able to win and give this to them. Thanks
It would really help in my daughters room, let me know whether she is asleep or not
This monitor is the cat’s a**! Instead of relying on just listening I could actually see what she was up to in her crib! I want this monitor so bad!!!!
I would use this monitor to keep on eye on my daughter when she sleeps!
I would use the monitor with my daughter. She often makes noise while sleeping, but I think she is still asleep. However, if I were to look in on her, that would certainly wake her up. Having a video monitor would allow me to see what she is doing, if she is up, or just making noise while she sleeps.
This would help me keep an eye on my grandson while he’s in the playroom.
It would help me be able to keep an eye on my son :)
My daughter is such a light sleeper, it would be great to watch her without going upstairs and risk waking her up!
I can watch my nephew and make sure hes okay
This would help me to keep an eye on my kids.
Actually, if I win this, I would give it to my neighbor who has a 2 month old baby girl and she doesn’t have a monitor.
My Baby days are over ( 2 Teen Boys) but my little sister is expecting so as an to be Auntie I would love to gift this to her.
I’d give this to my niece who has a newborn it would be so good for her
would help my budget
this would be awesome for my new grand baby coming ….
This would be perfect with our baby on the way in the Spring! We don’t have one yet
It would help me help my cousin who just had a little boy, they thought they were done so they gave away all of the baby things! So now they have to start all over and get things and this would be great to be able to give them.
I would love one of these! I have a friend who is having her 3rd child and this would be amazing for her!
Well we are scheduled for our c section on January 27, 2014 to welcome our little princess into our family and after 8 years since my last little princess we are starting from scratch and need everything all over again since all of my things were long donated to others. I would love to win this prize so I can keep my eye on my most precious prize of all :)

it would be for my daughter as sh just had a baby so it wooul be of great use to her
It would help me to see what my baby is doing, instead of just hearing
It would be great to see what she was doing instead of just guessing from the babbling.
Not having to run into babys room every time I hear a peep. The video means I can see if he is awake or just shifting etc.
I don’t sleep well especially when kids are sick, this would make me feel so much better
With a new baby in the house this would be a great help
my daughter is expecting soon and this would be a great gift for her
I would actually like to gift this to my girlfriend who is having her first baby and it would help her have some piece of mind.

My daughter is going to have her first baby and she needs one badly.
It would be good to give as a Christmas gift
I’ve got an old monitor that I’m using right now as I write. It has no video and has a ton of static and the cord isn’t the original so it doesn’t quite fit in the the one end properly — you have to jiggle it a bit. So basically a new monitor would be awesome so I could have a properly working one and one that I could see what he’s up to as well for extra peace of mind.
I would love to be able to watch my boys play in the playroom :)
My three year old has this terrible habit of getting out of bed. I would love a video monitor so I would know for sure before going into his room.
I have 2 autistic boys. This would help me so much with while they play and I am cooking or cleaning to make sure they stay playing in their room or sleeping. One also sleep walks and knows how to get out the front door. So we have been nervous since that started.
we are expecting and do not have a baby monitor yet!
I would love to be able to see my daughter when she is fussing to help determine weither she has to stay and cry it out a bit or if she is in real distress. Thanks!
I would love to use for my baby so that when I’m in another room I can see if he is sleeping or awake or crying and I can go tend to him.
I would love this for my son’s room. I go in his room several times to make sure he is ok. This would help so much!!!
Stinking autocorrect. My name should be nici not nice!
I would love this for my son’s room. I go in his room several times to make sure he is ok. This would help so much!!!
I would give it away, as I never had any children.
being able to actually SEE the baby just brings so much peace of mind, thanks Julie!

I would love to open this on Christmas morning. So would my husband!!

This giveaway would help me because my husband and I are expecting our first
My monitor recently stopped working so this would be great to give me peace of mind knowing my little one is sleeping soundly
We just moved to a bigger apartment where my daughter who is 7 months old will finally have her own room so I would love this since we don’t have a monitor yet
This would help me monitor my baby without going in the room to see him.
I don’t have a monitor, so im still uncomfortable leaving him in his room for very long. this would give me peace of mind!
this will be a great gift to my cousin who is expecting her second baby after 8 yrs. She would be delighted.
I’m expecting and I’m deaf so this would work perfectly for me!
I would give it to my son and his wife who are expecting a new baby. I think this would be the perfect baby moniter for them to have for their house.
This is for my co-workers first child. She is very nervous and full of anxiety that she wont hear the baby cry or something will happen to baby while in crib so this monitor would sure help give her peace of mind. Great contest and good luck to everyone :)
looking after my new grandson this would be so helpful
i would use this monitor for my toddlers so if i have to leave the room for a minute or two i can keep an eye on them
My sons would love this
I would love this for my new LO on the way, it would be very helpful! :)
This would put my niece (an new mommy) at ease.
this would be awesome to have for when we have our next child. I can let the baby sleep and not have to feel like i need to keep an eye on him/her 24-7 and do things around the house in peace
This would give piece of mind to everyone, and eliminate waking up the baby to see if she is sleeping.
This would help my sister in law keep a close eye on my nephew with special needs while he’s sleeping.
i have an escapee toddler… this would help keep my mind at ease
I would love this for a friend. She is a first time mommy and i think this would give her much piece of mind!
It will help me to decide what to give my niece for a baby gift, she lives in a multi story house and would give here peace of mind
This would be a great gift for my sister, who doesn’t have a monitor yet.
my boss is expecting her first baby and this would be an awesome shower present
it would help my sister keep track of the baby movements
It would allow me to have one monitor with multiple cameras to supervise all the kiddos and not have different monitors plugged in all over.
This would help me to take care of my grandbaby that is due in February
this would be great for my newborn whom I am expecting in April 2014! the large screen on the monitor looks great!
We are expecting a little one in the spring and this would be great. It would save me going into the room when our little one is sleeping and waking them when I could just check them on the screen
lots of kids in our house and i have to keep babys door closed
