nanny cams
Hidden childcare monitors
Nanny cams are hidden cameras used to monitor caregivers—originally nannies, hence the name—without their knowledge.
Parents install them to check on how their children are being treated when they're away: We caught the babysitter on the nanny cam ignoring the kids.
The term now extends to any covert home surveillance.
