I don't think e-ink screens would be good for a baby monitor. The slow refresh rate would make them a poor choice for monitoring a video stream, and the repeated flashing when changing the image would make them annoying at night.

I suspect the baby monitor is not for monitoring the baby, it is the monitor for the baby to read and watch some fun images.

Generally the term “baby monitor” refers to a microphone or camera watching the child’s crib, and a way to listen to or watch what your child is doing when they’re supposed to be asleep. Maybe somebody somewhere uses it to mean a screen for the baby to watch, but that would have to be some very non-standard usage.
