I just wanted to say a big thank you to all our readers and contributors who help make this blog a valuable resource for new parents.  As you know, this a completely free resource backed by our retail site.  We have been expanding recently which is why we haven’t had the time to write as many new posts as we would have liked.  The new retail site is now online at Lullaby Babies but it won’t be open for business until April the 7th 2009.  Until then all products will be marked, ‘Out of stock.’ 

After the launch date, we plan to give this baby sleep blog a make-over and we are considering a parent’s club, chatroom and more. 

The concept behind the new boutique is to source the finest organic and eco-friendly products for babies and unite them all in one place.  Our product range will start off fairly small (because we research and test each product personally before approving it for inclusion into the boutique).  However, the range will grow as we do and we hope that our customers will feel as passionate about the products as we do!  

We have recently been fortunate enough to have been featured in The Daily Mail, The Daily Telegraph and several more publications (details to follow).  We have also been invited onto BBC 5 Live, BBC radio London and many more radio shows! 

It is an exciting time for the business and we have been working day and night to cope with the increased demand following the national publicity.  As such we haven’t had chance to contribute anything new to this blog recently but after Christmas we will be ensuring this changes dramatically.  We intend to join forces with several baby-experts to continue to provide a wealth of free and impartial information for new parents.  We’ll also be trying to get lots of parents involved in contributing to the blog by sharing their unique experiences with others.  

I hope you all have a great Christmas and a wonderful new year.

I am delighted to announce that our new range of premium gifts for babies are here.  Please feel free to take a look and a listen by visiting the Lullaby Babies home page (http://www.lullaby-babies.co.uk).  The design and manufacture took a considerable amount of time but as I’m sure you’ll agree, it was certainly worth the wait!

We are proud to announce that Lullaby Babies is in the running for two awards sponsored by The Press. 

The company is up for Science and Technology Business Of The Year and I personally am up for the Young Business Entrepreneur Of The Year title.

With the imminent launch of our new product range this opportunity has come at a really exciting time for myself and the business.

I’ll let you know when the results have been announced- keep your fingers crossed for us!

New Premium Packaging for all Lullaby Babies Products

We have been working with Science City York and Inchpunch Design of North Yorkshire to revamp our product packaging.  We are delighted with the results and we believe the new products will offer even greater durability and value for money.  All personalised lullabies will shortly be available in collectable CD tins.  These will replace the DVD boxes which represent the current packaging solution.

Parents have long been aware of the soothing effects that lullabies can have on babies. However, research has been conducted that has not only proved this scientifically but has also shown the range of positive physical and psychological advantages that lullabies can have on babies. One study that was published in the International Journal of Arts Medicine showed that playing lullabies to babies can reduce their heart rates, increase oxygen saturation and reduce stress behaviours.
