Searching for the best baby monitor is a big decision when it comes to baby gear. As new parents, we're all immediately transported to a place of worry when our little ones are born, and when we tuck them in at night — as infants and even later as babies — the baby monitor is our lifeline. It's how we can check in to see how they're doing without disturbing them. Whether you want a smart baby monitor with oxygen level readings, a baby monitor without WiFi, or one with just audio, here are our five picks.
