Benefits of Using White Noise Machines
Promotes Better Sleep: The white noise blocks out sudden sounds that may wake a sleeping baby or adult, promoting longer and more restful sleep.
Soothes Crying Babies: The consistent sound from your white noise sound machine has a calming effect on infants, reducing crying and fussiness.
Creates a Routine: Using white noise during sleep times helps establish a sleep routine, signaling to your baby that it’s time to sleep.
Helps Babies Fall Back To Sleep. One of the greatest benefits of white noise machines is that they help babies fall back to sleep if they wake up as they drift from 1 sleep cycle to the next (Sleep cycles are generally every 20-45 minutes). This means their day naps will generally last longer and they will be less likely to fully wake during the night.
Ideal for Shift Workers: The consistent sound of white noise helps those who work irregular hours by providing a consistent sleep environment, even during the day.
How to Use the White Noise Machine
Placement: For babies, place the white noise machine at least 1 meter away from their head to ensure effectiveness without being too loud.
Volume: Set the volume to a level similar to a soft shower or family chatter (around 50 dB), ensuring it’s not louder than 65 dB to protect hearing at a young age.
Timing: Turn on the white noise machine as part of your bedtime routine. It can run continuously through the night or be set on a timer. Continuous use is recommended for consistency.
Portability: Take the portable white noise machine with you when traveling to maintain a familiar and soothing sound environment. It's useful in the car, pram or hotel.

White noise machines benefit everyone:
Adults: Ideal for light sleepers, those with tinnitus, or shift workers.
Children: Helps create a calming bedtime routine and improves sleep quality.
Travelers: Maintains a consistent sleep environment in new places.

Sleep advisers around the world endorse the use of 'white noise' style machines as a calming, consistent sleep inducer for babies. A parent shushing their little one to sleep is a natural and intuitive action of providing a white noise sound to support little ones to sleep.
Your new baby is quite used to noise because the in-utero environment is quite loud. With whooshing sounds of fluid, heartbeat, your voice and even the TV they are use to sound whilst they sleep. In fact, complete silence can be more confusing to a newborn than background noise.
