This depends on your circumstances and your choice. Some say a baby monitor is useful only for parents raising a little one aged 18 months to 2 years. But, in my point of view, even the parents of a toddler can benefit from a baby monitor.

Even though a 2-year-old child is old enough to ask for help when needed, they begin at their age learning to crawl and walk around. It’s more dangerous if not well looked after. A baby monitor mounted on the wall has a better viewing angle to check whether the toddlers are in danger around them and prevent them in advance.

You can also use the device to check in on a child of any age, as well as pets, the elderly, and someone who’s sick, for example, baby’s fever spikes at night. So a well-made wifi baby monitor will be useful to you for years to come.
