A Home Security Camera System Is Becoming More Popular In Homes

Do You Trust Your Babysitter? Ok, so it's not so much about trust as it is assurance. Of course you trust your babysitter to take care of your child the way that you would. You honestly believe that your babysitter keeps a cool temper with your child, don't you? So it's not that you don't trust her, right?

However, a little assurance would be extremely comforting during those minutes of doubt. More parents than ever are buying and installing "Nanny Cams" or another type of home security camera system. The trend seems to be catching on with many parents around the US. It's a little assurance that's becoming more affordable than ever.

"We just don't want to take any chances. We want to know if our babysitter invites anyone into our home while we're gone," says Michelle Lee, mother of 2. "We make the babysitter aware of the camera and she seems ok with it."

A complete security camera system can usually be purchased for under $100 for the camera, the remote control, and the special PC software that allows you to watch over your child and the babysitter from work or anywhere that you can get an Internet connection. That's down from over $600 just a few years ago. Most also come with a recording system that allows you to record the video on your computer hard drive or to a VCR/DVR.

Again, most parents say it's not about not trusting your nanny, you just want to be sure that your baby is in the best hands at all times. It's all part of having a home security plan.
