Love it!

Really soothing even for me, a woman with no babies!
I do have a niece & nephew with whom I only speak in Italian, would be fabulous if you could share an Italian nursery rhyme in coming episodes :)

It’s so important to sing to children.

The most beautiful podcast

I’ve always believed in music for children but I underestimated the power of singing to my baby in utero. Singing along to this
Podcast makes me quite emotional and in touch with my baby, who is not even with us yet! Thank you for bringing the gift of music to all of us, no matter what our abilities.
