This is a really fun episode about music! I really do wish I had this information when I was pregnant. I know it feels natural for a lot of us to sing to our babies and it turns out there’s a reason for that. As our guest Vered Benhorin explains, there may well be some compelling science behind the benefits of music both before and after birth.

A mother of three, Vered knows a thing or two (or three!) about birth and babies. Music was a powerful tool for her in parenthood and was central to her pre-mom life. Now a music therapist and psychotherapist, she has developed classes and techniques for parents to integrate the power of song into their babies lives.

In this Episode, You’ll Learn About:

-How Vered’s path shifted from aspiring rockstar to musical mom

-How music helped her connect with her baby

-Why it is so beneficial to sing to your baby during pregnancy

-How songs can help in developing a routine

-How to choose what songs to sing

-How to reframe what makes a “good” singing voice

-Why Vered recommends a labor playlist
