Helpful NICView Info for Parents

What Will I See?
Once you are logged in, you will start receiving streaming images of your baby.
However, if the medical team is caring for your baby, the camera may be temporarily ‘off-line’ in which case you will see an ‘off-line’ image. Please check back shortly. Remember, your baby’s care is the TOP priority and your baby’s image may be off-line frequently. Please be patient and know your baby is receiving great care.
