As cities burgeon and lifestyles evolve, the way parents approach childcare is also transforming, leading to a surge in demand for advanced monitoring tools. The intricacies of urban living and the resultant lifestyle shifts drive an increased dependence on technology for child-rearing, with smart baby monitors emerging as invaluable assets in this modern parenting toolkit. Hence, such developments will be the prominent factors driving the growth of the market in the coming years. The burgeoning emphasis on holistic child development in contemporary parenting landscapes has emerged as a potent catalyst for expanding the market.
