Tomy Digital Plus TD350 baby monitor

The Tomy Digital Plus TD350 baby monitor is really easy to set up  – and can be used straightaway, as long as both monitors are left to charge for six hours whilst in use. It guarantees 100 per cent  interference-free and crystal clear sound, which puts parents at ease whilst the child is sleeping. With a 350 metre range one can freely walk around the house, (enjoying the rare moments of having both hands free!) with the parent unit clipped to a pocket and relax, without constantly checking on the baby –  something I was prone to doing!

The baby monitor unit has a built-in coloured night-light, which can scroll the colours of the rainbow or be set to just one colour. The remote controlled night-light can be used to prevent the child being woken from the overhead light too.

The parent unit can be put on silent, but the coloured light display will alert you to your baby's needs, ranging from a pale yellow to deep red, depending on her state. The vibration mode can be used in very noisy environments or for parents with hearing difficulties  and for those parents who would prefer not to hear every little murmur!

The two-way talkback can be used to reassure the child from afar or for parents to speak to one another, if one needs something brought in!

There's a timer on the baby unit which can be used to time night time feeds, ensuring your baby has fed well and will therefore hopefully sleep for longer periods of time! Both units display the baby's room temperature, which encourages a parent to relax, knowing their child is not too hot or cold, something all new parents worry about.

The parent unit beeps to remind the parent to charge it and when charging the unit produces even better quality sound. The pager on the baby unit can be used to find the parent unit if lost – which has happened to me numerous times in the short time I have been using it! If the baby unit should be turned off accidentally or stop working, the parent unit beeps alerting the parent to the problem.

I have been really more relaxed using  the Tommy Digital Plus TD350 monitor and I recommend it to any new parents.
