Leaving a small child at home is always stressful for the parents. The baby is totally defenseless and knows next to nothing about the dangers of the world around it. Therefore it is a great relief for them to be able to peek at the baby monitor and see that the little one is alright. A baby monitor can work over its own radio band or over the Internet, in which case it can connect to you even if you are far away, like at a job.
