The Dreammaker is a scientifically proven sound and light sleep aid that helps baby to sleep better by simulating ideal sleep conditions, rather than stimulating baby. Developed with a world-leading sleep laboratory and sleep scientists at Northumbria University in the UK, this unique, patent-pending sleep aid relaxes your baby, encourages them into a deep sleep and prolongs the length of their sleep. A very quiet sleep environment is unfamiliar to babies and may make it harder for them to fall asleep. This innovative sleep aid for children features pink noise which mimics the sounds of natural noises which baby hears all day and thereby provides baby with a sense of calm and comfort. Incorporating pink noise provides a comforting background noise which aids in falling asleep faster, deeper and for longer. Melatonin (the sleep hormone) is a naturally occurring hormone that your body produces in response to darkness and helps to control your sleep cycles. Exposure to light can supress the secretion of melatonin and delay the onset of sleep. Research has shown that compared to exposure to other lights on the spectrum, red light exposure has little to no effect on melatonin suppression. Our research has shown that a baby sleep solution that incorporates red light could help baby get to sleep faster, sleep longer through the night, and be minimally stimulating during night-time awakenings, making re-settling easier. Use as a nightlight when breastfeeding or bottle feeding during the night to keep disturbance to a minimum. Choose from 3 brightness levels to provide a comforting and relaxing glow that won’t disturb baby (or you) once asleep. The rhythmical pulsing light waves encourage slow, deep breaths to relax the user ready for sleep. The first, faster pulse setting reflects baby’s resting breathing rate, helping to induce sleep in infants. The second, slower pulse mimics your resting breathing rate, helping you to drift off!
