By product type, it is dominated by infant baby seats which accounted for a share of more than 30% since the year 2015. The audio-only monitors are the oldest form of baby monitors, which have a simple operation.

Historically, the baby monitor has been the fastest-growing segment which grew at 4.60% CAGR. Baby safety & convenience products come in handy to the new parents in a nuclear family structure to keep an eye on their baby safe while they are indulged in work.
In developing countries especially the demand for baby cribs & cots have inclined considerably, with the increase in disposable income and are considered to be multipurpose. Yet, this segment held to less than 12% of the baby safety & convenience market share Also, the manufacturers are focusing on adding several functionality and features in baby cribs and cots such as wheels for mobility, side rails that prevent the baby from falling over, extended sleeping area, and various others. The increase in fatal injuries among babies and toddlers due to falling from stairs or beds is tempting the parents to adopt baby safety devices.

The market drivers, trends, and challenges for baby safety & convenience products in western countries are very different than in the west. However, there are also some common trends that have been observed to be consistent across regions.

The market is considered as non-essential in many of the developing and under-developing nations, and thus the global market is driven by the regions of North America and Europe. This is mainly because of their higher spending capacity. Increasing birth rates across Asia majorly in India, China, and Bangladesh is to drive the demand for baby safety & convenience. As the number of working women increased, the need for carrying their babies to different places at a greater convenience has also increased. This has widened the scope for baby strollers, majorly in Asian countries. The future market growth of such products can also be attributed to a high preference in the developed economies. It is very quick to purchase through online portals which have been a major attraction for young parents in recent times. But due to the fact extremely high costs and the dearth of FDA-approved advanced baby monitors are likely to restrain the growth over the coming years.
