For the last half year, we've hired a nanny to watch over our kids. The other day, we noticed that some things we'd stored in the basement had gone missing. We've turned the house upside down and can't seem to locate these missing items that were in the basement. We suspect the nanny may have taken them, but we don't know how long the items have been missing so it could also be any number of people who had attended one of our parties in the last few months.
My wife and I travel a lot for work and we'll be gone for three weeks in the beginning of August. The nanny will have free reign over the house during this time. If she is to take anything further, now would be the perfect opportunity to do so.
We really like her and can't imagine she would ever steal from us. However, the people who screw you over are sometimes the ones you least expect. While it would be easier to just replace her, we also don't want to throw out the baby with the bath water and get rid of her without any form of confirmation. She's a great nanny and we wouldn't want to lose her unless we really have to.
Therefore, to put our minds at ease, my wife and I want to setup a hidden camera while we're gone. Been looking around the internet and it seems that there are two kinds of cameras - the kind that needs connections to a PC and the all-in-one unit(camera+ storage integrated into one unit). I'm only interested in the all-in-one units as I don't want to bother with the PC hook up, but will consider it if the system is good. These things are quite pricey for a one time use application so I was hoping a Beyonder might have one I could rent off them. On top of the rental fee, I'll also leave a full security deposit for the equipment. Motion detection activation is also a must. Please PM me if you have something like this you can rent to me.
