Fixing Bad Baby Monitor Angles Without Drilling Holes
The problem nobody warns you about
Baby monitors are easy to buy and weirdly hard to mount properly.
You put the camera on a high shelf so it’s out of reach…
and suddenly all you can see is:
• Forehead
• Ceiling
• A vague blur of crib bars
Most cameras aren’t designed for high shelves, narrow ledges, or rental homes. And the “solutions” out there usually fall into two camps:
• Flimsy universal mounts that wobble or sag
• Wall mounts that require drilling holes you may not be allowed to make
If you’ve ever stacked books, taped things in place, or repositioned a monitor five times in one night, you’re not alone.
The most common problems parents face
We see the same issues over and over:
• Bad angles on high shelves
Cameras point straight ahead instead of down, giving you forehead footage instead of a full view.
• No easy, sturdy mounting options
Universal mounts don’t fit properly and slowly slip out of position.
• No-drill limits for renters
Most parents don’t want to damage walls, especially in rentals or short-term setups.
• Bulky mounts that stand out
Big brackets, floor mounts and clamp arms look messy, take up precious space and don’t blend into furniture.
• Travel setups that are a nightmare
Hotels, grandparents’ houses, Airbnbs — suddenly there’s nowhere safe to put the camera.
Our solution: model-specific mounts that just work
We design and 3D print problem-fixing baby monitor mounts that solve these exact issues.
Instead of one “fits everything” option, each mount is made for a specific camera model so it:
• Fits snugly
• Stays put
• Keeps the correct angle
No wobble. No slow droop. No improvising.
Shelf mounts for bad angles and high placement
Our shelf mounts are designed specifically to fix the high-shelf problem.
They:
• Hold the camera at a downward angle for a proper crib view
• Sit securely on shelves without tipping
• Don’t require drilling, glue, or wall damage
• Are low-profile and minimal so they blend into furniture
• Are lightweight and easy to move room to room
Perfect for:
• High shelves
• Narrow ledges
• Floating shelves
• Rental homes
• Travel and temporary setups
Minimalist by design
We keep our designs intentionally simple.
That means:
• No bulky arms
• No oversized clamps
• No visual clutter
The goal is for the mount to quietly disappear into your setup, not become another thing you notice in the room.
Travel-friendly by default
All of our mounts are designed to be:
• Lightweight
• Compact
• Easy to pack
Whether you’re heading to grandparents’ houses, holidays, or an Airbnb, you can bring a familiar, stable setup with you instead of starting from scratch.
Wall mounts, without the stress
If you do want a wall mount, we keep those simple too.
Our wall mounts:
• Use two standard screws
• Screws are 1 inch apart
• No special hardware required
• Easy to install and easy to remove later
They’re designed to be as renter-friendly and fuss-free as possible while still giving you a rock-solid hold.
Why model-specific matters
Baby monitors might look similar, but small differences in shape, weight, and camera tilt make a big difference.
A mount designed for your exact model:
• Holds the camera correctly
• Maintains the intended viewing angle
• Doesn’t rely on friction or pressure to stay put
That’s why we don’t do “universal” solutions.
Designed and made by parents who got fed up
All of our mounts are designed and printed in South Australia by two parents who went through the same trial-and-error stage.
These exist because balancing a baby monitor on a shelf at 2am is not a long-term plan.
