# A personalized lullaby with your baby's name, for bedtime

A personalized lullaby is a slow, soft bedtime song that sings your baby's first name and the small things that make up their evening, ending as they drift off. You give us the name and a few bedtime details, we write the words for you to approve, and an AI music model sings it as a two-minute lullaby.

## How it works

You bring a first name and three or four true bedtime details. An AI writer drafts the lyrics about a minute after payment, you change any word or ask for a fresh draft, and an AI music model sings it in about 2 to 4 minutes. You get an MP3 to play at bedtime and a private page to send to grandparents, and you can make up to 3 sung versions before you choose one.

The lullaby style is music box and soft fingerpicked guitar with warm low strings, slow and very quiet, with no drums. The words wind down on purpose: the last verse has no exciting pictures, only sleepy ones.

## What to put in a lullaby with your baby's name

The details that work in a lullaby are calm, familiar and small. Think about what actually happens at your house each evening:

- **The comfort object**: the bunny, the soft blanket, the star night-light.
- **The routine**: bath with the yellow duck, the green pajamas, one more feed, the book about the moon.
- **Who is there**: Mama, Papa, the dog who sleeps outside the door.
- **A nickname** you whisper, if it is different from their name. Tell us which one to use in the chorus.
- **Sounds they know**: rain on the window, the sea if you live near it.

Leave out anything exciting you do not want them thinking about at bedtime, such as a trip to the zoo tomorrow.

## Bedtime song for toddlers and older kids too

A lullaby is not only for babies. Many families want a bedtime song for a 3, 4 or 5 year old who has outgrown the baby songs. Set the age band to toddler, preschool or school, and the lyrics change with them: short lines and repetition for a toddler, a small story with a sleepy ending for a preschooler, clever rhymes for a 6 year old who notices babyish words.

For older kids, the details can be about their day: what they built, who they played with, what they are proud of. A bedtime song that says "you were kind to Sam today" closes the day on a good note.

## How to use a lullaby in your bedtime routine

The American Academy of Pediatrics' parent site suggests a predictable nighttime routine, which it sums up as brush, book, bed, and mentions singing songs at story time. A personalized lullaby fits as the last step:

- **Same place in the routine every night**, after teeth and the book, so the song becomes the signal that sleep is next.
- **Lights low, volume low.** Play it once, or twice if they are still settling, then stop.
- **Keep the speaker or phone outside the crib.** The AAP's safe sleep advice is that nothing else should be in the crib with your baby.
- **Sing along** once you know the words. The recording teaches you the song; your voice in the dark is what they will remember.

Our step-by-step [bedtime routine for toddlers](/guides/bedtime-routine-for-toddlers) guide shows where else a song can help.

## Price, voice and language

One price per song, shown on this page, paid once with no subscription. Packs of 5 and 20 bring the price per song down and never expire, which helps if you also want a wake-up or tooth-brushing song later. Choose a warm female or male adult voice, made by AI. The lullaby can be sung in English, Spanish, German, French, Portuguese or Italian, so it can match the language you speak at bedtime.

## Example lyrics

Made with Still Morning for a made-up example, from these details: "Seven months old. Falls asleep holding a grey elephant called Ellie. Bath with a yellow duck, then a bottle in the rocking chair by the window. Her big brother Theo kisses her goodnight. We call her Isla-bean. Rain on the roof most nights.".

**Isla-bean, Close Your Eyes**

```

[Verse 1]
Bath time with your yellow duck
Splish and splash, then out you come
Wrapped up warm and soft and snug
Night is here, the day is done

[Chorus]
Isla, Isla, close your eyes
Rain is tapping on the roof
Mama sings you lullabies
Papa rocks you, soft and smooth

[Verse 2]
Theo tiptoes in to say
Goodnight, Isla-bean, sleep tight
A little kiss, then he’s away
You hold Ellie, grey and light

[Chorus]
Isla, Isla, close your eyes
Rain is tapping on the roof
Mama sings you lullabies
Papa rocks you, soft and smooth

[Bridge]
Bottle warm, the room is dim
Rocking by the window, slow

[Chorus]
Isla, Isla, close your eyes
Rain is tapping on the roof
Mama sings you lullabies
Papa rocks you, soft and smooth

```

## What it cannot do

It cannot make your baby sleep; it is a song, not a sleep method, and every child settles differently. It cannot sing in a child's voice or copy a relative's voice. The music model sometimes blurs a word, so listen to each version once before you rely on it at 2 a.m.

## Questions

**Is a personalized lullaby the same as a personalized bedtime song?**

Here, yes. Pick the lullaby style for a baby and something gentler and slightly brighter for an older child. Both are written to wind down, and both sing your child's name in the chorus.

**How long is the lullaby? Can I loop it?**

About two minutes. You can loop the MP3 in any music player, but many parents find one or two plays and then quiet works better than a song that never ends.

**Can the lullaby use a nickname instead of the full name?**

Yes. Put the name you actually say at bedtime in the name box, and mention the full name in the details if you want it once in a verse.

**Can I give a personalized lullaby as a gift for a new baby?**

Yes. Many people order one as a welcome gift once the name is known. The [song for a new baby](/songs/personalized-song-for-new-baby) page covers welcome songs, which are written as gentle hellos rather than for sleep.

**Can I change the words after it is sung?**

Change the words before it is sung; that is the point of the review step. If you notice something afterwards, you can edit the lyrics and make another sung version, up to 3 per song.
