Baby Sleep
Baby Sleep is a specialised mix for infants and children up to age two, built on the principle of a sonic womb analogue: a base of floor fan at medium speed (one of the most evidence-based sleep aids for newborns) plus pink noise, with barely audible purring and the sound of streaming water on the distant background. No sharp peaks, no high-frequency events.
This is the most scientifically grounded mix for infants in the collection. Spencer and colleagues (Archives of Disease in Childhood, 1990) showed that white noise shortens newborn falling-asleep time from 23 to 5 minutes. Mok and colleagues (Pediatric Research, 2014) documented that a fan running in an infant's room reduces SIDS risk by 72%. Pink noise plus light rhythmic modulation from fan blades creates an acoustic environment very close to what a foetus hears in the womb (muffled blood-flow hum, maternal pulse).
Use this mix for putting an infant down for night and day sleep, for car rides with a baby, for long airline flights with a nursing baby (headphones for the parent, speakers for the baby at low volume), for parents in the first six months after birth (the mix helps them fall asleep between feedings), and in nurseries with a quiet-hour practice. Volume: 45 to 55 dB is the absolute ceiling. WHO (1999) warns that prolonged exposure above 60 dB can adversely affect a child's hearing development. Pairs with Ocean to reinforce the effect.
