The science of bedtime
At its core, BeddyByes leverages extensive research in childhood sleep science, combining gentle storytelling, carefully calibrated pacing, and beautifully soft visuals and soundscapes to gently ease children from active playtime into restful sleep. This considered approach helps make bedtime easier, helping to reduce stress and create peaceful nightly routines for both children and adults.
