How it works

Three small steps at bedtime

  1. Pick a story.

    Choose by age, by the change your child is going through, or by a favorite friend.

  2. Press play, or read it yourself.

    Listen together with the lights down, or read the words aloud from the page with no sound.

  3. It stops on its own.

    The sleep timer ends it. Nothing else plays after the story unless you chose soft music, and that stops too.

Two homes

The same bedtime story, in both homes.

When a child sleeps in two houses, a familiar story can make bedtime feel a little more the same in each one. Each grown-up has their own account, and nothing is shared or linked between homes. The free stories need no account at all.

Safety

What we promise

  • No chat

    No messages, no AI conversation, no talking characters.

  • No child accounts

    We never ask for a child's name, age, photo or family details.

  • No ads or trackers

    No advertising and no tracking of any kind.

  • No listening history on our servers

    Where you stopped is saved on your own device only.

  • Everything stops by itself

    A story ends, any music you chose plays out, then silence.

  • Closings are your choice

    You choose an everyday ending or a Christian faith ending. Jewish closings are coming.
