- Fadi Zaiter, an HR manager, checks a nanny-cam feed on his smartphone. The father of one has placed two cameras — one in the living room, which is his daughter’s regular play area, and one at the entrance of the house.
Abu Dhabi: For mothers who spend long hours away from home, relying on nannies to care for their children may bring up safety issues that cause concern. That is why several parents in the UAE have opted for installing surveillance cameras that can be accessed remotely to keep an eye on the situation at home.
Abu Dhabi Police regularly issues warnings about the limited safety that is provided to children when they are left with caretakers other than their own parents.
Palestinian mother of one, Noor Samir, who is currently pursuing a postgraduate degree and therefore has to spend some time away from her two-year-old son, said: “I was constantly worried about him and thought about what I would do if I had to travel or be gone for some time. So, I installed two cameras — one in his room, where he normally plays, and one in the hallway.”
Noor refrained from placing a camera in the living room for fear of making invited guests feel uncomfortable about being watched
