Nanit's proprietary AI technology has enabled award-winning product development and innovation since its first-generation smart baby monitor and app was introduced in 2016. Since then, Nanit has become the #1 grossing smart baby monitor brand in the U.S., with the Pro Camera + Wall Mount being the #1 baby monitor overall^*.

These advancements provide parents with a personalized view of their child's wellness and have led to breakout growth - positioning the brand for its next phase of expansion.

Commenting on her appointment, Salinas expressed her excitement, "I am thrilled to join the Nanit team at such an exciting time in the company's journey.
