What is a 'nanny-cam'?
A nanny-cam is a hidden camera that can come in a variety of forms. Some of them can transmit audio and video to where you can watch it in your office and listen to it. There are different service providers that offer that and it can be expensive, however. Nanny-cam no matter what version it is, one that records and you can watch it later or when it's just voice-activated, some are them are black and white, some of them are video-only, some things are audio-only. So it depends on what type of equipment you want but you can go down to many of the major chain or electronic stores and find cameras that can be used for that but in all cases they are hidden cameras. It is important to tell the nanny that you do use a nanny-cam, in fact even if you don't, I would recommend that you tell them that you do because they'll have a different way of responding to things so if they know that you're actually watching them. The best system that you can have is a nanny-cam that records what's going on of video and voice in different rooms in your house and that you can actually watch remote control, it's a web-based service. I don't personally recommend any one over another one but you can look them up online and just search on nanny-cams and you'll come up with everybody who sells those.
