Nanny Concerns: When it is illegal to use a spy camera

 

After spending many hours interviewing, checking references, doing criminal checks and trial runs and finally you find a Nanny you are happy with to look after your child. But you still have concerns whether your child is safe? Is the nanny tending to the child when they cry? Is the nanny’s behaviour consistent with the child in your absence?

These questions can only be answered when the parents use a hidden camera to record their child’s nanny. However before parents start placing spy cameras around their house, they need to know Video Surveillance laws.

Video Surveillance Laws. Using hidden cameras are currently legal but it is illegal to record your nanny in areas of the home which are private such as bathrooms and bedrooms. It is not permitted to release footage to third parties except when there is a legal necessity.
