What’s the Best Baby Monitor in 2025?
Baby monitors are a must-have for parents. They’re an invaluable tool for keeping an eye on your baby and ensuring they are safe and comfortable at all times. As technology evolves, baby monitors now come equipped with a variety of advanced features. So, what is the best baby monitor on the market today? Discover some of the standout models available in 2025, along with their key features and benefits. Do I Need a Baby Monitor? Baby monitors are highly recommended for parents who want to stay connected to their baby while juggling everyday tasks like cleaning, cooking, or working from home. They are particularly useful in larger homes, where hearing your baby from another room might be challenging, or for parents who want extra peace of mind during overnight sleep. How to Choose the Best Baby Monitor The right baby monitor can ease your mind and simplify your routine – but finding the best one comes down to a few key features: Simple setup and use A good monitor should be easy to install and intuitive to navigate, whether it uses buttons, a touchscreen, or connects to your phone. Smartphone-compatible models should pair quickly and reliably. Reliable connection Whether it runs on a local network or Wi-Fi, a baby monitor should stay connected without dropouts – even in larger or multi-storey homes. Strong battery life Look for a model that lasts at least 10–12 hours on a single charge, so you’re not constantly reaching for the charger. Clear video and audio You want to see and hear your baby clearly. Crisp audio, a good camera, and night vision all help give you peace of mind. Built to last Baby monitors should be sturdy enough to handle the occasional bump or tumble – without feeling flimsy or fragile. Best Overall Baby Monitor: Oricom 5" Smart HD Touchscreen Premium Baby Monitor For a comprehensive baby monitor with robust smart technology built-in, the Oricom 5” Smart HD Touchscreen Premium Baby Monitor is your best option. This model is well-loved for many reasons, starting with a Stargrip that allows you to position the camera wherever you like. The camera itself has a 300-metre range within line of sight and infrared night vision capabilities. What makes this the best baby monitor is its in-depth smart features, from Wi-Fi and FHSS Digital Wireless Connectivity to integration with the Hubble Club for Partners app. The app includes motion, sound, and temperature alerts, the option to create personal audio recordings, and more. You can also buy a version of this model with a cot stand for an overhead view. Oricom HD Dual Vision Camera The Oricom HD Dual Vision Camera is a smart, reliable baby monitor that offers more than just peace of mind. With two built-in lenses—standard and wide-angle—you can view more of your nursery at once. Using the free HubbleClub for Partners app (available on iOS and Android), you can stream both camera angles simultaneously to your smart device. This high-definition monitor delivers crisp 1080p video with infrared night vision, so you’ll always have a clear view. It also features motion tracking, automatic camera movement, and a temperature sensor to help you keep baby’s space just right. Built-in lullabies, nature sounds, audiobooks, and two-way talk let you soothe baby from afar—ideal for naps and nighttime routines. Smart home compatible (with Google Assistant and Alexa), sleep-tracking enabled, and designed with a secure connection and wall mount included, the Oricom Dual Vision blends innovation and comfort in one beautifully practical device. Best Breathing Monitor: Oricom Babysense 7 Breathing Movement Monitor Our last option is a different type of monitor often used alongside video or audio monitors. The Babysense 7 , the latest in Oricom’s line of breathing movement monitors, features the same reliable technology in an updated, improved design, offering parents greater peace of mind. With simple one-button activation, it’s easy to use and suitable for newborns from birth. The monitor operates through sensor pads placed under your baby’s mattress, which alert you if their breathing slows below ten breaths per minute. This monitor is part of the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG No. 97479), making it one of the most trustworthy monitors available. It is also battery-powered, meaning you won’t have to deal with any active power sources around your baby.

A Guide to Baby's Temperature
As a parent there always seems to be something to worry about! A common concern in these cooler months is baby’s temperature and how to hit the ‘Goldilocks’ sweet spot – not too cold; not too hot! Monitoring baby Babies can’t regulate their own body temperature for the first six weeks, so it’s important to keep an eye on them and adjust their clothing and room temperature to suit. First up – what is normal? Baby’s temperature should be around 37 degrees Celsius. A mild fever is a temperature higher than 38ºC and a high fever is anything over 39ºC. A thermometer is a great addition to your home first aid kit – giving you a quick and accurate temperature reading. These will typically get used a lot throughout childhood, making them a great investment. Some great options include digital forehead thermometers for quick and contactless checks such as Oricom's Contact Infrared Thermometer or Nuk's Baby Flash Thermometer. It’s a good idea to also take your baby’s temperature on a day when they’re content and well, so you can check their ‘normal’. Babies under three months with a mild fever and babies between three and six months with a high fever (over 39ºC) should be taken to the doctor. Another way to gauge baby’s temperature is to gently touch the back of their head or tummy – it should feel warm. (While they offer easier access, don’t go by their hands or feet, as these extremities are often cooler.) Ideal temperature for a sleep space It’s important to make sure the room where your baby is sleeping is at a comfortable temperature - around 18-20ºC. If you have a heater, heat pump, or air conditioning with a thermostat, you can set it to 18ºC and it will flick on and off as the temperature changes throughout the night. Clothing and bedding choices are key Merino is a natural wonder that’s perfect year-round – helping with temperature regulation. It has little pockets of air that keep warmth in on cold days, and cool baby down on a hot day. Another great natural fibre for baby is organic cotton . It can eliminate moisture build up between clothes and your baby’s skin, to keep your them comfortable and dry. Clothes for when you’re out and about For daytime, opt for layers so you can add or remove a layer to keep baby comfortable - again sticking with cotton and merino. If your baby falls asleep in the pram or car - yay! But both spaces can heat up and get airless quickly – so don’t forget to monitor their temperature. Think about ways to provide shade and airflow – and don’t leave them asleep in a car alone. Bath time Ideal water temperature for a bath is 37°C. It should feel warm and soothing, but not too hot for delicate skin. You can test the water with the inside of your wrist, or make it super easy with a Oricom Duck Bath Thermometer or the colour-changing Pebbly.

Welcome to Fatherhood: New Dads and Dads-to-Be
Congratulations, Dad 🤩 First off, huge congratulations! You’re about to embark on one of the most rewarding journeys of your life. Whether you’re a first-time dad or this is round two (or three!), there’s no denying how incredible this experience will be. Sure, it might come with a few sleepless nights and some unknowns along the way, but trust us – it’s going to be amazing.Fatherhood isn’t about being perfect – it’s about being there, learning as you go, and embracing every moment, big or small. You’ll have days filled with firsts, plenty of laughter, and some truly special memories. And remember, it’s okay if you don’t have everything figured out – you’re not alone on this journey. We’ve put together some helpful tips and advice to support you as you navigate these early days, so you can feel confident and prepared. The road ahead is exciting, and you’re going to be a wonderful dad. Let’s get started – you’ve got this! Support During The Pregnancy Journey Pregnancy brings plenty of changes – not just for mums, but for you, too. You might not be the one carrying the baby, but your support can make a huge difference. Here’s how to be the kind of partner your family will thank you for later. Start by learning and getting involved Understanding pregnancy helps you feel more confident and prepared. Check out a few articles, read a few books or dive into an online course for new dads. It can also be incredibly helpful to attend check-ups, which will keep you connected and informed. Ask questions, take in the details, and get to know your baby’s journey. Pick up a few extra chores As the bump grows, so does the to-do list. Take on more housework, drive to appointments, and let your partner rest. Don’t be afraid to ask for help – teamwork makes it easier. Get involved with meals Food might be a bit of a rollercoaster during pregnancy, so try to help where you can – cooking, meal planning, or just making sure there’s something in the fridge that actually sounds good today. And if your partner suddenly needs a very specific brand of ice cream at 9pm… well, that’s your time to shine. Be steady during the ups and downs Hormones can make emotions more intense. Be patient, listen well, and remember: sometimes just being there is enough. Look after your own wellbeing It’s easy to put your own needs on the backburner, but your mental health matters too. Talk openly with your partner, ask lots of questions, and check in with how you’re feeling. A calm, supported dad makes a big difference to the whole family. Think ahead Before baby arrives, research and get organised: Choose and install the car seat (Dimples can help with installation and advice) Set up baby’s space (even if they start in your room). Stock up on nappies, wipes, swaddles, and clothes. Merino is the ultimate in newborn clothing. Learn more about this here Cook and freeze a few meals – thank yourself later! And remember, you don’t need to have it all figured out. Just show up, learn as you go, and be there when it counts. You’ve got this – and feel free to sneak in a dad joke or two (just maybe not at 3am). Now... Baby Has Arrived! 🐣 Bonding with Your Newborn Studies show that active involvement from dads helps with emotional development, cognitive skills, and even reduces stress for both baby and parents. Bonding early on lays the foundation for a strong relationship as your little one grows. Here are a few ways to bond: Skin-to-skin contact: Take a moment to strip down and let your baby lie on your chest. This helps regulate their body temperature and heartbeat, while also releasing oxytocin, the "love hormone," for both of you. Talk and sing: Babies love hearing your voice. Even if you're off-key, read books, sing, or narrate your day ("Time for the big diaper change!"). Your voice will comfort them. Wear your baby: A baby carrier is an easy way to keep your newborn close while you move around. The warmth and motion strengthen your bond, and it gives you some extra dad points. We love this one by Nuna - we stock a few different kinds of carrier. Our store can help you with this if you want to pop in. Support Mum’s Healing The first weeks after birth can be tough for mum. Give her space to heal, and take charge of housework and meal prep. Whether it’s cleaning up, tidying, or letting her nap, your support will help her adjust and feel cared for. Taking Care of Yourself Parenting is a team effort, so don't forget to take care of yourself. Get rest when you can, eat well, and ask for help if you need it. You’ll be much more equipped to care for your little one if you're taking care of your own well-being. Finding Your Routine In the early days, life with a newborn can feel chaotic. Establishing a simple routine will help everyone feel more secure. It doesn’t have to be perfect, but having a basic rhythm for naps, feedings, and bedtime makes things easier as you go. Trusting Your Instincts You might not have all the answers, but trust your instincts. If something doesn’t feel right, speak up. You’ll figure it out along the way – you’re learning every day, and that’s enough. Accepting Help There’s no need to do everything yourself. Accept help when it’s offered – whether it’s a meal from a friend or a family member taking over a diaper change. It’ll make this journey smoother for everyone. Connecting with Each other And Celebrating the Small Wins Parenting is full of big milestones, but it’s the little victories that count too. Celebrate your baby’s first smile, a good night’s sleep, or the first successful outing. These moments are worth appreciating. Parenthood can be all-consuming, but it’s really important to find time for your relationship with your partner. Even simple moments, like enjoying a coffee together, can help you stay connected and grounded amidst the chaos. A Few More Tips Swaddle like a pro: Swaddling can help soothe your baby and improve their sleep. Merino or cotton is the best option. See our range Here Change bag: Keep a change bag handy: Have nappies, wipes, and a spare outfit packed and ready – you never know when you'll need them. Here are a few options for change bags at Dimples. And most importantly: Have fun! Parenting is a learning experience, so embrace it – and don’t forget to build your dad-joke repertoire! Fatherhood is an incredible journey – full of joy, challenges, and unforgettable moments. Dimples is here to support you every step of the way with all the essentials you need to be the best dad you can be. Enjoy every moment, because these early days will fly by ❤️

Babywearing made easy - New Limas Carriers
What are the benefits of babywearing? Baby carriers help you stay close and build a strong bond with your baby. The physical closeness can also help regulate the baby's heartbeat, body temperature, and breathing, all while providing them with a sense of security and comfort. Being hands-free while parenting is another great benefit. This convenience is great for everyday tasks around home. It also makes it easier to navigate crowded spaces, travel, or use public transport. A further benefit is that it frees parents to spend quality time with older siblings while keeping baby close and included. Babywearing has also been shown to ease discomfort and reduce crying. The gentle rocking motion mimics the womb and constant contact with a parent can have a soothing effect, helping to calm a fussy or colicky baby. Babies thrive on stimulation. Being in a carrier allows them to observe and engage with the world around them. They’ll get valuable sensory input from observing facial expressions, body language, and listening to the parent's conversations. Babywearing can also be beneficial for breastfeeding mothers with the close contact stimulating milk production. Babies' hips aren't fully developed when they're born. Babywearing supports healthy development of the hips. Our range of ergonomic carriers encourage the correct spread-squat position that is recommended by experts. New Limas Carriers The new Stokke Limas and Limas Plus are half-buckle carriers that combine the advantages of a baby wrap with an ergonomic carrier for optimal comfort & support. Both offer front, back (for 5+ months), and hip carrying options. The Limas Flex is a full buckle carrier with no straps to tie. It offers front and back carrying. In addition, the waistbelt can be easily removed, allowing it to be used as an onbuhimo - a traditional Japanese style for toddler back carrying Safety checks Ensure baby's airways are always clear and that they fully supported by the carrier. Make sure you keep one or both arms on your baby to secure them when fitting the carrier and when you bend over. And remember that if you wouldn’t do something with a baby in your arms, you probably shouldn’t do it while babywearing either – that includes anything involving hot liquids, running or jumping, or slippery surfaces. A great way to make sure your newborn is safely seated within their carrier is the T.I.C.K.S Rule. This stands for Tight , In view at all times, Close enough to kiss, Keep chin off the chest, Supported back. How to choose To make sure you’re choosing the right carrier for you and your baby it can help to try before you buy. The wide range of carriers we have available are all on display within our Dimples stores and we have amazing staff that can help fit the carrier for you.
