I place the item on bed but anyway to avoid the baby from staring directly onto the LED source? it's too bright for the eyes

It's not too bright - it's actually pretty calming. I bought one for my grandson who is 2.5 yrs old and for his brother who is an infant. It's soothing - I might get one for myself.

I actually place mine in a dresser so the baby sees the lights but doesn't look directly at the product itself.

Not a good idea to place on the bed with a child. Place it on a dresser or night stand. The sound is just as effective and the illumination is amazing on the ceiling.

no, but when you can directly see the led, it is very bright/distracting. I have one behind my head board and 1 behind my tv stand. the headboard covers the led and you cannot notice te glow whatsoever. the tv stand one has direct line of sight, between shelves so It is very noticeable in a dark room. But overall the light does not "glow" spread light a far distance.

What I did with my last pack n play (5 years ago), was cut a small slit in the mesh by the fabric and threaded the Angelcare wires through the hole to keep it away from baby's reach. This works best if you're trying to use the pack n play as a crib. I also placed a hard surface below the mattress of the pack n play to keep the monitor steady. Didn't have any sensitivity issues with the monitor. It worked just fine. Just an idea.

No. The whole point is that the child is not supposed to get up until the light goes off. Just to bright for us.

Unfortunately, you cannot turn off the light. The night light is very dim, and when next to a bed stand, should still feel cozy and not too bright.

Doubtful. It's too bright. I'd recommend either an led blacklight. Or tying off the patients arm extremely tight heheh

There's only a tiny light on mine. I would just turn it around towards the wall if it bothered me.

You might have to cut it or wrap around sides. Depending on room it might put out too much light. You could always put a dimmer switch on it.

I don't think that light can be turned off. You can cover it with burp cloth or other to dim it or black it out. We do that for the nightlight so we have light but not too much.

It is quite bright but we like it that way. Difficult to say if it would keep a baby awake. If the baby requires semi-darkness, I'm afraid this light would be too bright, especially in a small nursery.

The "night light" feature can be turned off, but it still shines a lot of light out the little holes in the purple part, and all of the buttons are lit up all of the time. I found this really annoying. I taped black tape over the purple part, but still have to hide it behind books, etc., to hide the bright blue glow from all the buttons.

I agree with the other responses. This unit has the tiny lights on top. I put mine on a bar stool and am not able to even see the lights from my bed.

plug it in a low socket...fine for baby..... you will need the light to guide you at night.

I agree with another answer, that the light is quite bright, almost too much for a bed lamp. A dimmer switch indeed would be helpful. The light strikes me as somewhere between cool fluorescent and warm tungsten, almost like sunlight. I think the mounting bracket that fixes to the wall isn't quite strong enough to support the lamp; the lamp tends to wobble. I'll have to devise a way of making the mounting more secure.

Yes, you can omit the music/noise, and just have the movement with a very dim light behind it. This option is excellent for training a child to enjoy silence or when the baby is sharing a room.

There isn't a way to turn it off. It's only on when it's dark and it's not overly bright. Just enough to be able to see where it is to touch.

My thought is put it on a dimmer. That's what we did and I am very happy with it. I keep it dim for early morning, such as taking a shower, but turn it up to fully bright for make up, etc.
