Evoz Baby Smart Parenting Monitor

Technology has transformed the way we monitor our babies, even allowing us in some cases to watch our children from anywhere in the world via smartphone or tablet.  But there is nothing on the market today that offers a host of “connected services” giving parents access to real sleep coaches, collect baby’s sleep habits AND even send cry alerts to your phone- until now.

Evoz Baby Smart Parenting Monitor takes baby monitors a step further with a complete Parenting Toolbox that let’s parents track their baby’s sleep habits, send “cry alerts” and even collects this data including how long they’ve cried, so that parents can address possible sleep issues.  It also automatically tracks the baby’s room temperature and alerts parents when it is outside the expert’s recommended range.  It also allows parents to watch their baby from anywhere in the world.

With a simple press of a button, parents can also activate these useful features, including:

  • A built-in nightlight in the monitor’s base helps illuminate the room and bring a sense of tranquility to baby;
  • Parents can remotely play pre-loaded lullabies or update new songs and audio books that adapt based on baby’s age;
  • Two-way communication feature allows parents to talk, sing and soothe their baby back to sleep with the simple sound of their voice; and
  • Capture precious moments by taking photos of their baby via the monitor.

As a global innovator in the development of smart monitoring devices and connected services, Evoz has redefined how families monitor their baby with the pre-launch of their highly anticipated Evoz Smart Parenting Monitor on Indiegogo, February 16th (http://evozbaby.com/indiegogo).

Holiday Stress Busters for Tired Toddlers

Holiday excitement = over stimulated little ones who just can’t sleep. Sleep experts Cloud b and Kim West (The Sleep Lady®), offer timely tips and healthy solutions for tired toddlers and pooped parents.

Sleep in One Place While You’re Away

  • Ideally, plan to sleep in the same space during your stay, as constant change is hard on babies. Having a consistent “sleep space” even if it’s not home is comforting and will help you to keep your routine as close to normal as possible.  Choose the home of one set of grandparents/relatives as a “base camp” and arrange to have relatives come there to visit your little one.

Keep Your Flexible Schedule As Close to Normal As Possible

  • Knowing that your child may be staying up late and getting additional stimulation (grandparents and presents!), make sure that your child is at least offered naps, especially if you are traveling with a small baby who still needs daytime sleep. Talk to your family and find a quiet, dark place where your baby can nap consistently during your visit, even if it is different than your nighttime sleep arrangements.

Most of you probably know by now that I absolutely love bows and headbands for my girls. They love to wear them and are very picky about which ones to wear with what outfits. I was so happy to receive a few new awesome bows and a headband to add to my collection from Via Cacao.

About Via Cacao:

Via Cacao was created by Vanessa. In 2012, after taking design courses in patterns, color,and graphics, she started creating playful hair accessories and gifting them to her friends around Seattle. Their enthusiastic responses led her to launch Via Cacao, which now offers a line of ultra-modern leg warmers, tights, and mismatched socks in addition to hair clips.

Via Cacao uses high-quality materials like Peruvian pima cotton in vibrant colors and quirky patterns to create pieces that make a statement and defy dress codes. After all, fashion is a form of expression that deserves to be cultivated in even the youngest savvy dressers.

The true inspiration is their children, Ignacio and Alessia, who truly make this venture worthwhile.
