Soothe your little ones to sleep to the strains of Nicola Kerrs 'Sleepytime Lullabies', a CD which includes everything from Beatles to Brahms and some authentic womb and heartbeat sounds too. Parents will enjoy it even after their baby has nodded off! --Mother and Baby Magazine
`......If your tester is anything to go by, the CD seems to have miraculous results - good news for harrassed parents !! --Maternity & Mothercraft
How can you calm a crying baby? Following Desmond Morris's assertion that babies derive comfort from sounds that remind them of being in the womb,singer/producer Nicola Kerr has recorded a CD of traditonal lullabies, backed with heartbeats and womb sounds. The hearing capacity of a baby in the womb is already well developed at 6 months.Dr Morrris's research has shown that once born, babies are lulled to sleep twice as fast when played recordings of the familiar sound of a human heartbeat. --Options magazine

CD Description
WHAT IS IT? A sleep program with songs carefully ordered to act, first by diverting an infant tired at the end of the day, then slowing down with gentle, soothing lullabies into the final sleep-inducing melodies. Suggestions inside show how to make the most of the programme by involving mother and child in creative interaction to bridge the crucial bath-to-bed time, insuring your child (and you) a good nights sleep. HOW DOES IT WORK? It is a combination of music, folklore and natures sounds. The mothers heartbeat and the sonic vibrations of the womb, with which your baby was familiar before birth, act as a powerful, natural sedative.

These wonderful, soothing lullabies have worked a miracle on a lively, buzzy baby that just thrives without sleep! My best friend is a marvellous mum but she has been frazzled since the birth of her third child eight months ago. This healthy, fun-loving child doesn't seem to need to sleep and has been wearing down his poor mum and dad. They're teachers and experienced parents but every strategy has failed in getting their baby son to sleep. His happy shouting in the small hours wakes his siblings too. I searched the internet, found this double CD and bought it for them. The results were immediate and the impact on the whole family is amazing. The baby seems to get to sleep by about Track 3 or 4 and on the one night when he awoke at 4.15, his dad played these beautiful lullabies and off he went again. My friend is looking ten years younger and they are relieved and grateful to have found a method that does the trick. The lullabies are sweet, the singer's voice is lovely and she delivers them with such tenderness, you can only guess that she must be a great mum herself. The musicianship and arrangements are first class - my friend played me part of another lullaby CD she'd been given and it was pretty shoddy stuff by comparison. I would recommend this to any parent but also, it has turned out to be the best gift I could have given.

This delightfull, cd is an absolute must for any carers of small children. I have soothed my grand daughter on her over night stays, and am now buying another copy for my son's newly expected arival.

I couldn't help getting my hopes up when I read all the rave reviews, that my six month old might find this CD so soperific he'd not wake me up so much in the night, but instead he listens for a bit then rolls over and smiles - 'no I'm not going to sleep mum'. However I like it so I don't feel too hard done by. It can be useful to time how long I'm feeding him for (ie I'll stop at the end of this song etc). Mind you Skye Boat Song is completely stuck in my head - could be worse!

Wonderful
I got this CD as a present for a friend, whose child would not stop crying and go to sleep. It may be the way the songs are so well arranged, or the magic in these lullabies, but I... Read more

Quality
I'm trying to contact the sellers about this product because it looks home-made with PC quality disc surfaces and badly cut photo paper (bits of the lyrics snipped off) inserts. Read more

Beautifully sung by Nicola Kerr, but why 2 CDs?
I must say I loved this album (comes with 2 CDs) and so did my 5 month old- it defnitely relaxes him and helps him sleep.
I sometimes put it on when I give him his bath. Read more

not sure why there are two separate CDs, both only have about 5 tracks on each - why not combine them into one CD, and that way you don't have to make noise in the bedroom trying... Read more

I do think the songs are lovely. However, I'm disappointed because it is sold as a double CD which makes you think it's a good length, but there are just six songs on CD 1 and... Read more
