Baby monitoring devices are electronic tools that utilize one-way/two-way radio or video transmission via the internet, coupled with a portable receiver, to enable caregivers to listen to or observe an unsupervised infant. The device typically consists of a transmitter with a microphone and camera positioned near the child, transmitting sounds and images to a receiver unit equipped with a speaker and display screen, which is carried by or placed near the caregiver.
The primary types of baby monitoring devices include internet baby monitors, video baby monitors, and audio baby monitors. Internet baby monitors are devices connected to the internet, offering real-time video and audio of the monitored baby through websites or mobile applications. These monitors employ both wired and wireless modes of connection and find applications in hospitals, households, and various other settings.

The baby monitoring devices market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $4.77 billion in 2024 to $5.18 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.5%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to economic growth and affordability, rise in nuclear families, integration of health monitoring, urbanization and limited living spaces, changing work dynamics.
The baby monitoring devices market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.94 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to security and privacy features, customization and personalization, stress and anxiety reduction for parents, healthcare awareness and early detection, rising disposable income. Major trends in the forecast period include parental concerns for child safety, rise in working parents, urbanization and smaller living spaces, health monitoring and wellness, connectivity and smart home integration.
The increasing number of working women is anticipated to drive the growth of the baby monitoring devices market in the future. Working women are defined as employed females who earn a salary, wages, or other forms of income through regular work outside the home. Since employed mothers may not have sufficient time to care for their children while working, baby monitors are utilized to listen to or monitor the baby from a distance and send alerts in case of emergencies. For example, according to a statistical report published by the Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED), a research division of the Federal Reserve Bank, women's labor force participation in the United States rose to 57.1% in August 2022. Thus, the increase in working women is propelling the growth of the baby monitoring device market.
The rising child population is expected to contribute to the growth of the baby monitoring device market in the coming years. The child population refers to individuals aged 0-17 years living in a specific area, such as a village, city, state, province, country, or continent. Baby monitoring devices are frequently used by parents to ensure the safety and well-being of their infants. These devices are often viewed as essential for newborns and infants, providing parents with peace of mind and enabling them to respond promptly to their baby's needs. For instance, in 2023, the Federal Interagency Forum on Child and Family-a collection of 23 federal government agencies involved in research and activities related to children and families-reported that the United States had 72.5 million children in 2022. This number is projected to increase to 78.2 million by 2050. Therefore, the growing child population is fueling the expansion of the baby monitoring device market.
An emerging trend in the baby monitoring devices sector is product innovation, which companies are adopting to bolster their market position. Major players in this market segment are dedicated to developing novel products aimed at enhancing their offerings. For instance, in August 2023, Masimo Corporation, a medical technology firm based in the United States, introduced the Stork smart home baby monitoring system. This comprehensive system comprises components like Stork Vitals+ and Vitals, featuring a high-resolution camera with improved night vision and high-quality two-way audio. Leveraging noninvasive hospital neonate monitoring technology, the Stork system provides continuous health data tracking, a user-friendly mobile app, secure connectivity, and 2K quad-high definition video. By catering to parents' needs, Stork brings hospital-grade technology to household use with a simple smartphone-like interface.
Major corporations in the baby monitoring devices market are strategically focusing on the integration of AI-driven intelligent solutions, such as AI-based smart baby monitoring devices, to gain a competitive advantage. These technologically advanced systems are specifically engineered to monitor and ensure the safety of infants. For instance, in September 2023, VTech, a leading parenting technology company based in Hong Kong, introduced the V-Care VC2105 Smart Nursery Baby Monitor. This cutting-edge monitoring system harnesses distinctive local AI capabilities, delivering baby sleep analytics and real-time alerts, setting a new standard in the baby monitoring landscape. With a 5-inch, 720p High-Definition Parent Unit Display, parents can vigilantly observe their child from home or remotely via their smartphones. The Over-the-Crib WiFi video baby monitor not only furnishes valuable sleep analysis but also grants a comprehensive view of the baby, empowering parents to optimize their baby's sleep efficiency by identifying sleep patterns and visitations throughout the night.
In August 2024, Masimo, a US-based health technology company, entered into a partnership with March of Dimes to assist parents with newborns in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) as they move from the hospital to home. This collaboration aims to provide families with resources and educational materials to help them navigate the challenges of caring for premature or critically ill infants after discharge. By utilizing Masimo's innovative monitoring technologies, the initiative seeks to enhance the health and well-being of these vulnerable babies, ensuring a smoother transition and better outcomes. This partnership demonstrates a commitment to empowering families during a crucial time in their child's development. March of Dimes is a US-based nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the health of mothers and babies through research, education, and advocacy.
