Smile Cameras in Daycare??

I've been looking into many systems so I can see what they kids are doing when I'm not in to room. I would like something that's portable, wont break easily, and is a good quality system.
I would really like a system that I can view on my phone and computer. Is there a system that can be viewed from another location? Say my husbands work?

I've been looking at the following systems:
http://www.amazon.com/Uniden-UDW1000...d=5PCI33OGY9X9

http://www.amazon.com/Lorex-LW2003-V...d=5PCI33OGY9X9

I've also looked at the mobicam but you have to buy a separate thing to look at it through the internet and pay for a subscription. Does anyone have one??

I have a wireless video camera pointing out my back yard so I can see my view. I can view it anywhere even my iPhone. They are actually pretty good ones on the market. Just make sure they come bundled with the receiver (that connects to the computer) and the softwhere that allows you to work the camera settings and internet connection. I use Yawcam which was a free software to connect to the internet. http://www.yawcam.com/

Hopefully you or your husband are computer savey.

Just curious why you would want it to be viewed from your husband's work? I'm not insinuating anything, but that sounds a little creepy. Just my initial thoughts. Not saying anything bad about you or your intentions.

I was just using him as an example. He does however occasionally go away for work so I was looking for something that could kinda double as a webcam?? But I really want to be able to login and see whats going on if I have someone over watching my kids while we go out or something like that. Make sense??

I have the same sort of thing. Im also able to connect through my iphone with the icam app. We also use this when we go out of town to keep tabs on our house and cats. My husbands a information security engineer for GE so we got it going on in our house lol. I HIGHLY recommend getting a camera for use.
