Odd question. Does anyone recommend a secure and good quality baby monitor? Wanted to see if there were any secure options out there. Would be nice if they support ONVIF haha.

Many here use this and it comes into BI easily and has an ethernet port so you can not use wifi if you are doing the BI dual NIC thing:
Others have used this one too, but it sounds like a few quirks to get it into BI:

+1^^^ regarding the Amcrest IP2M-841, a re-branded Dahua. It is ONVIF compatible, provides RTSP, is 1080p (Full HD), IR, 2-way audio, has pan/tilt/digital zoom, record to micro SD card, wired or wireless, great with Blue Iris, VLC, etc. Comes with wall/ceiling mount, 1/4"-20 tripod mount female insert on bottom. Available in black or white for under $50, can be mounted upside-down and the image inverted as needed.
I've installed 4 of the V2 versions, 1 of the latest V3 version and 3 of it's lower-res HD (720p) cousins in the last 4 years and all have functioned with no hiccups.
I currently use 3 of them with Blue Iris; 1 on front porch to look at deliveries, 1 in garage and 1 in sunroom to watch the dogs; two of the 3 is operating on Wi-Fi via a dedicated AP. I have also set one up with Tinycam Pro on a Sony smart TV (Android).

FYI, the 841B (black) on sale at amazon for $40 ==>> Amcrest ProHD 1080P WiFi Camera 2MP (1920TVL) Indoor Pan/Tilt Security Wireless IP Camera IP2M-841B (Black)
Sure, black ain't real pretty for a baby's room but you can save $$ for 2 gals. of gas in some states!

Good timing as the cheapo P/T cam died and kid #2 is on the way. Any cheapo cam is fine in my view, but might as well get something that's useful for after the kiddo grows up. Wish the Amcrest here had PoE, but it seems that feature is only on more expensive cameras.
The one I referenced has an ethernet port. It isn't POE, but a simple ethernet splitter solves that. This is the one I am using and works fine.
