INCOMPETENT BABYSITTERS ARE PARENTS‘ WORST NIGHTMARE, FORTUNATELY YOU CAN HAVE A DIGITAL EYE ON THEM

Brutal push down the stairs of a 4-year-old girl at the Child Care of the Future day care centre in Upper Derby, Pennsylvania, was caught on camera that has just recently been installed there. Think about all the horrible things that may have happened when there was no camera as a witness.

Shawayne Tavares, who saw on the cam in real time a little girl falling down the stairs, admitted ‘It still hurts me, just seeing the video. The little girl was just really shaken up. Her eyes were literally like ‘help me.‘‘

The situation took place on Friday, 3 March 2017.

With tears in her eyes, Tavares run straight to the 52-year-old Sarah Gable, a care taker with 25 years of experience working in the day care industry, that has been employed in Child Care of the Future for a year. You can see on the recording that after pushing the child she looks straight in the camera.

Despite that, she was trying to explain herself to Tavares saying that the child fell down the stairs because she – lost her shoe.

The recording was a bit of luck as that particular camera had been installed minutes before the incident. If not for it, Sarah Gable would still work in the centre and nobody would see this horrible scene and her gross misconduct!

She was immediately fired and faced a simple assault charge and endangering the welfare of a child. CBS News reported that she has since been released from jail on a $25,000 bail.

She has been taking care of children for the past twenty-five years!

It‘s terrifying how many children she might have hurt when cameras were not watching‘.

Parents think their children are under professional care, but...

There have been many examples of personnel‘s misbehaviour in kindergartens, schools and also private day care centres. People that are supposed to take care of children sometimes cannot be trusted. They are violent, abusive both physically and verbally towards children in their charge. And children are often too scared to say anything to their parents or are not even aware that such behaviour is not right.

When you think about these acts of violence you are probably of the opinion that you would never leave your beloved child with a stranger. Even references and many years of experience do not guarantee that a babysitter can be fully trusted and will not hurt your child when you are away and when there‘s no potential witnesses.

Is there a way to be sure that your child is safe with a babysitter when they are alone? Try out our minicameras hidden in everyday objects to keep an eye on what‘s going on with your child!

How to record a babysitter and check how she's doing with your child?

Loving parents want to know if the employed person takes good care of their child. Unfortunately, children that are hit or humiliated by babysitters often do not say anything, as they are simply scared. Parents should then notice a change in their behaviour – for example, a lively child suddenly becomes sad and apathetic. But there‘s not much to be done, if you do not have any proof, just speculations.

Losing a job is not a serious consequence for a bad babysitter – she can find a new job, many of them actually have got many years of experience! Victims were silent, there were no witnesses – how many could have been hurt?! Recording them could have changed lives of many abused children.

Spy cameras for recording babysitters, hidden in everyday objects, can be divided in two categories:

    • minicams recording footage and storing it on internal or external memory (e.g. micro SD cards) – to watch it you need to transfer the files to a computer;
    • minicams with remote live view function – they also store material on memory cards but parents can see on a smartphone what‘s going on in real time!

Minicam hidden in an alarm clock

A small alarm clock or wall clock in a baby room does not rise any suspicions. However, inside such a casual home device there‘s a spy camera hidden to record a babysitter. It starts recording after movement is detected and provides up to 5 hours of continuous recording, if there‘s still somebody in the room.

Spy cameras for recording babysitters can be installed in objects delivered to us by prudent parents – no need to buy a new clock! If you, however, do not wish to install a minicam in your clock or other object (lamp, teddy bear, book, etc.) check out our alarm clock equipped with spy camera: the DCR-233 alarm clock with remote control.

The PV-TM10 minicam concealed in a clock that can be mounted onto a wall differs from the models present above as it‘s equipped with a PIR motion sensor which reacts to changes of temperature in a room and is more sensitive that ordinary motion sensors installed in cameras. PIR sensors are used in, e.g. phototraps, what allows for detecting movement even in the 25-meters range!

In the video with sound recording mode it records from 5 seconds to 2 minutes and continues the recording if it senses movements, for example, when the babysitter is playing with your child. In the photo mode, it takes three shots one after another. If you need to have proof of your babysitter‘s misconduct, choose the video mode to record the abusive behaviour.

Microcameras with remote view for recording babysitters

A spy minicam with remote view of its surrounding can connect with the web via Wi-Fi or Ethernet cable. It allows for remote access from any mobile device with Internet access to what‘s going on in your baby room and also to configure the device using a web browser or an app. It allows for instant reaction. You see that the babysitter is hitting your child? – call somebody you know who is the closest to your house right now or go there as soon as possible to intervene!

Viewing angle of the cam in a wall clock is 100‘ so it should be hung on a proper height to reach a crawling toddler or baby playing in their favourite spot. It is better to be safe with the cam than to be sorry later, if something bad happens to your child!

Have your ever left a charger in a socket? Do you know that we have on offer a minicam with Wi-Fi hidden in a smartphone charger? Thanks to an AC adapter its operating time is unlimited.

It can record all day long, as per a schedule set by a parent (e.g. from 8 am to 4 pm) or after detecting movement. Remember, that in continuous mode its memory card gets full quite quickly and you would need to fast-forward recording when nothing happens.

It also features a sensitive microphone recording sound in up to 6-metre range and stores data on memory cards of up to 128 GB! The charger with a spy camera can be plugged into a power strip or a wall socket – choose a place which is the best for observing your kid‘s room.

Your babysitter should not use your private things, and our cams will record her every move, also going through your drawers or trying on your clothes.

Our last proposal is a minicam hidden in a dock station – a stationary smartphone charger.

Does a dock station in a baby room seem suspicious? No, as its parents may want to charge a phone while playing with their child. There‘s nothing suspicious about that, right? Minicam concealed in this device, like the one in a charger, has unlimited operating time and provides remote live view but can also overwrite old footage to save space.

Recordings are automatically divided into 10-minute-long clips. If a memory card of up to 128 GB is almost full, the oldest data gets rewritten. If a cam has not recorded anything for the whole day you don‘t have to remove any footage. You only need to remember about saving vital recordings, monitoring your babysitter behaviour and reacting instantly, if needed.

If, during initial job interview, you inform your potential babysitter that she may be recorded, you have a big chance of scaring off dishonest candidates. A diligent and honest babysitter, who really likes the job and taking care of children, should not have anything against. Thanks to home monitoring you can check whether the employed person has good influence on your child and takes proper care of it. When your baby is bigger you can use the hidden cam in a different room or for a different purpose, for example, to monitor your workers in the office. As you can see, there‘s nothing to lose and you definitely gain cheerful childhood of your child!
