So, we won't always be in the next room to see what baby is doing. There will be times when we will be out of the house leaving baby under the care of others, yet we want to know what baby is up to. 

This is when wifi baby monitors come in handy. These monitors let you check in on baby be it you are in the living room, at a cafe or at work. Not limited by any range or distance, all you need is just a wireless router and a smart phone/tablet. 

Giving the ultimate peace of mind when you're away from baby, check out our top picks and why we love them below.

Best Wi-Fi Baby Monitor with Advanced Features

Owlet Duo Smart Baby Monitor

Why We Love It

When it comes to smart detection and monitoring, it has to be the MIKU Smart Baby Monitor that requires no wires, clips, pads or wearables to track baby's breathing, movement, sleep patterns and nursery conditions. Yep, it is completely contact-less.

It has one of the best baby monitor app because it does not require any additional subscription for these features - they all come directly with your purchase. And even though it features wifi connectivity, it still works if you lose internet connection.

Multi award-winning, its embedded tamper-resistant crypto chip paired with advanced encryption and two-step authentication give total peace of mind in terms of security. 

Best Wi-Fi Baby Monitor with Extra Features

iBaby Smart WiFi Baby Monitor M7LK

Why We Love It

There are many iBaby monitor reviews out there but to us, its best product has to be the iBaby Smart Wifi Baby Monitor M7LK. Having won over 20 awards in the past decade, this two way baby monitor here is jam-packed with the most number of features we have seen. 

It monitors room temperature, read air quality and humidity level and detect any scent that is present. Both motion and sound detection are available and you can even do a split screen viewing and play lullabies. Best of all, you can pan/tilt the camera remotely with your phone. 

There is even mommy assistant features like a privacy breastfeeding button and you can customize your feeding and diaper alarm. It will continue to monitor baby even with another app running - something many other Wi-Fi options struggle to do.

Best Wi-Fi Baby Monitor Detection Accuracy

Lollipop Smart Baby Monitor

Why We Love It

The Lollipop Baby Monitor is probably most distinguishable by its outlook - well, its design is entirely patented. A bendable leg that can wrap around your crib or a Lollipop wall mount, it can also stand on its own without any additional parts. 

What truly stands out to us though, is its True Crying Detection technology. This one here is able to recognize baby's crying from other noises with a minimum of 96% accuracy rate so there is no frustrating false notifications. 

It also detects baby's movement so you will be notified if baby climbs out of the crib or make loud noises. There is a multi-streaming feature where you can see all cameras on the same screen at the same time, and there is no limit as to how many cameras you can add.

Best Wifi Camera for Baby Monitor

Arlo Baby Smart Baby Monitor

Why We Love It

The Arlo Baby has one of the best video quality in clear 1080p HD clarity and its sound clarity is better than several Wi-Fi competitors we have seen. It comes with most features that parents want - 2-way talk, motion/sound alerts, music player/ built-in lullabies and air sensor.

And something else that the rest doesn't have - multi-coloured night light. We especially like the versatility of its height adjustable Table/Wall Stand, which allow multiple placement options for ideal camera viewing into the crib, and can be wall-mounted.

It runs on a rechargeable battery that so it doesn't have to be plugged in 24/7. In fact, it  can monitor up to 6 hours without plugging in. Compatible with Amazon Alexa, Apple homekit and Google assistant.

Best Wi-Fi Baby Monitor for Extra Security

Google Nest Cam Indoor Wi-Fi

Why We Love It

Now, the Nest Cam Indoor Wi-Fi is not, strictly speaking, a baby monitor. However, its impressive visuals, extensive Wi-Fi range and user-friendly components have made many parents use it as one, with the Nest complete with motion detection, sound activation and 2-way talk.

It goes without saying that one of its biggest appeal lies in its security features. As one would know, the Google Nest is equipped with industry leading security complete with two factor authentication so you can say this is the safest baby monitor. 

You can hook it up an infinite number of cameras to the system and it is compatible with Amazon's Alexa. With unbeatable HD image and up to 8x digital zoom, this is a great choice for long term use beyond the baby's years i.e. nanny cam, home security, or checking on pets. 

Why We Love It

This is something new - the AI technology being incorporated into a baby monitor. That's exactly what the CuboAi Plus Smart offers - using AI to detect if your baby's mouth and nose are covered or is face down. 

You get to define a motion detection zone and the system will alert you when baby enters somewhere they shouldn't. Likewise, AI is used to detect baby's cries and it will intelligently capture any cute moments automatically so that you won't miss a thing. 

1080p HD video stream, 2 way baby monitor, temperature and humidity alert, inbuilt nightlight and lullabies - it doesn't come as a surprise that the CuboAi Plus Smart Baby Monitor is multi award-winning. Developed alongside paediatricians, this is the best wifi baby monitor that gives the ultimate peace of mind. 

Best Wifi Baby Camera

Lumi by Pampers Smart Baby Monitor

Why We Love It

The Lumi by Pampers is another award-winning contender. This is the best HD baby monitor and that, is saying a lot considering all our wifi baby monitor reviews are exceptional in this area. 

But yes, designed with Logitech, Lumi is the only baby monitor with 1080p HD resolution AND an ultra-wide 180° view that give unmatched clarity to its users. The amazing night vision is crisp clear, and there are 2-way audio, room temp. and humidity tracking.

Available for all iOS and Android devices, the monitoring continues even if your phone is locked or other apps are being used. Rest assured your data are encrypted and safe, and you can manage permissions according to different caregivers you share your feeds with.

Why We Love It

There are many Motorola baby monitor reviews but we're here for their Halo+ Smart Baby Monitor. A wifi baby monitor with parent unit (just like your non wifi video baby monitors), this is deemed the best wifi baby monitor with parent unit by many users. 

Why we say this is a flexible baby monitor is because there are multiple ways you can set up the camera. Clip onto your baby's crib to get a full bird's eye view, or attach it to the railing without any additional tool/wall mounts. When baby outgrows the crib, detach and use it as a home security camera.

We like how this Motorola wifi baby monitor is fitted with a night light and lightshow projector, as well as the huge selection of lullabies, soothing sounds and bedtime stories available which you can download more from the Hubble app. You can even record your own songs or stories!

Best Budget-Friendly Wi-Fi Baby Monitor

If you have not already noticed, wireless network baby monitors do not come cheap. In fact, they are probably the most expensive out of all the baby monitor types that are available.   

Nevertheless, here are two top rated wifi baby monitors that are super budget-friendly for your consideration:

Lefun WiFi Baby Monitor

Why We Love It 

Easily the best affordable baby monitor in the wifi category, the LeFun is an impressive little wifi video baby monitor that gives you a lot of features at a very reasonable price. 

From motion detection, sound activation and 2-way talk back to photos and videos recording, there is even Cloud service storage and is compatible with Alexa besides the usual iOS and Android. 

Remote monitoring at its best with pan 350°/tilt 100° and night vision, all data will be kept safely with its financial encryption security standard.  The best value baby monitor certainly!

Nooie WiFi Baby Monitor

Why We Love It

Slightly more expensive than the Lefun but still under $50, the Nooie is another candidate under the best cheap baby monitor wifi category.

What impresses us most is its 360 ° motion tracking that automatically senses and tracks the action in your home in full 360°. The display is top notch at 1080P HD quality, and the two 940nm infrared LEDs and night vision up to 32ft (10m) give superior picture even in pitch-black. 

Similarly, it is compatible with Alexa and Google home and there are Cloud and local storage feature offered as well to keep your data safe. Surely this is one best baby monitor with wifi that doesn't break the bank!
