BEAVERTON, Ore., May 2, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- To empower productive parents, VTech Communications, Inc. today debuted five new baby monitors and four soothers. Building on VTech's legacy of award-winning baby products, the additions come equipped with state-of-the-art features and a wide array of capabilities, enabling moms and dads to choose the monitor best suited for their busy lifestyle.

"When parents bring home a little one, their lives change in new and wonderful ways," said Matt Ramage, senior vice president of sales and product management, VTech. "It can be stressful for parents to be away from baby and completing tasks can prove challenging. Our versatile line of baby monitors and soothers give new and seasoned parents the freedom to check items off their to-do list, while remaining connected to their child."

VTech Baby Care Video and Audio Monitors

VTech VM3251 Full-Color Video Monitor with Automatic Night Vision
Whether mom and dad are cooking dinner or working from a home office, the VM3251 video monitor makes it easy to keep eyes and ears on baby. The high-resolution screen allows parents to see every giggle and smile in full-motion video. Its built-in temperature sensor indicates whether the nursery is too cold or too hot so parents can always be mindful of their child's comfort. With its extended range and two-way intercom, the VM3251 lets parents soothe their little one from anywhere in the house.

Designed for families that want even more coverage at home, the new VM3251-2 Expandable Digital Video Baby Monitor with 2 Cameras and Automatic Night Vision is an ideal two-camera option right out of the box. Both the VM3251 and VM3251-2 can be expanded up to four cameras when paired with VM3211 Accessory Video Cameras.  

VTech VM5271 Video Monitor with Motorized Lens and 6x Optical Zoom
The VM5271 video baby monitor allows family members to see every corner of baby's nursery with a first-of-its-kind motorized wide-angle lens camera that can zoom in and out from a narrow 30-degree view to a wide 110-degree view by pressing a button. Unlike most monitors, this camera features optical zoom to let parents see details with clear, 6x close-ups, without switching the lens. The 5-inch screen captures all the small details, while night vision offers a clear view of the nursery when the lights are out.

Growing families will appreciate the new VM5271-2 Expandable Digital Video Baby Monitor with 2 Cameras with Motorized Lenses and 6x Optical Zoom, providing a flexible solution that allows parents to position a second camera wherever they need it most. Parents can expand the VM5271 and VM5271-2 monitors up to four cameras with the VM5231 Accessory Video Cameras to keep an eye on multiple rooms.

VTech Teddy Bear DM226 DECT 6.0 Digital Audio Baby Monitor with Night Light
As adorable as it is practical, the DM226 audio baby monitor helps parents and little ones rest easily throughout the night. A perfect addition to any nursery, the monitor is shaped as a bear cub, while the parent unit is designed as a mama bear. Featuring DECT 6.0 technology and a talk-back intercom, parents can soothe their baby and rely on a secure connection without worry of interference.

VTech Baby Care Soothers

VTech BC8210 Marcel the Monkey™ Portable Soother & VTech BC8211 Myla the Monkey™ Portable Soother with Night Light
Adding to VTech's zoo of friendly animal-shaped Baby Care products, Marcel and Myla keep baby calm on the go. The portable soothers allow parents to choose from five gentle lullabies and five soothing sounds such as white noise to relax their child wherever they are. Myla even comes with a dimmable soft-glow night light to help little ones sleep. Both soothers have flexible tails that hook onto items such as doorknobs, stroller handles and even car seats, so parents can have peace of mind whether embarking on a road trip or out grocery shopping.

VTech BC8311 Tommy the Turtle™ Storytelling Soother & VTech BC8312 Wyatt the Whale™ Storytelling Soother
With Wi-Fi enabled Tommy the Turtle and Wyatt the Whale, parents can select their child's favorite story to encourage sleep and comfort at bedtime. The soothers come with 40 minutes of preloaded stories, 10 gentle lullabies and 10 soothing sounds including white noise. Parents can download songs and stories using the free VTech Tommy and VTech Wyatt apps for iOS and Android, and remain close with their little one from anywhere by simply recording their voice to share personal messages and special stories with baby.
