NEW BABY SONGS
Personalised Song for a New Baby
A song they can hear as a baby — and understand when they are older. Their name, their arrival, and a message from the family recorded while the moment is happening. Given by parents, grandparents, or anyone welcoming them.

How we look after your song
Your story, carefully checked: Our Cumbria team checks the names, dates, places and memories you supplied against your lyrics before you see them.
You approve the lyrics: Read every word and use your included lyric-change round before approval. Once approved, that version is locked; later creative amendments may be chargeable.
A real person throughout: A real member of our Cumbria team oversees your order and is available by email whenever you want to talk through your song.
Download, keep and replay: Your song and included keepsakes are delivered as digital downloads. The Lyric Sheet is a printable PDF; nothing is posted physically.
A keepsake that grows with them
One song, heard differently at every age
Families tell us the song changes meaning as the child does. Nothing about the recording changes — only the person listening to it.
In their first year
A gentle, calm track with their name in it, played at bedtime and at the christening or naming ceremony.
As a small child
The song they know is theirs, asked for by name, sung along to badly and happily.
As a teenager
The point where the lyrics start to land: the family they came from, and what was said about them before they could speak.
As an adult
A record of a year they cannot remember, in the words of the people who were there for it.
A song they can hear as a baby — and understand when they are older
Almost everything bought for a new arrival is outgrown. A song is the rare exception: it is made in the year they were born and it still works when they are eighteen.
That is really what you are ordering. A gentle track to play at bedtime now, and a message from the family — their name, where they came from, what everyone hoped for them — kept safely for the person they turn into.
WHEN PEOPLE ORDER ONE
Moments this song suits
A new baby gift
Given in the first weeks, when the house is full of flowers that will not last.
A baby shower
Ordered before the birth around the name and the waiting, ready to play on the day.
An arrival or birth announcement
Shared with family and friends as the way the news is told.
A christening, baptism or naming ceremony
Played during the gathering afterwards, or given to the parents as the keepsake from the day.
A first birthday or first Christmas
The first milestone with their own song attached to it.
A gift from grandparents, or from parents
Grandparents order these often. So do parents, writing something down while the year is still fresh.
WHAT TO INCLUDE
What makes their song truly personal
Their name, and why you chose it
The full name, any nickname already forming, and the reason behind it — a grandparent, a place, a name you both simply loved. This is usually the centre of the song.
The family they have arrived into
Parents, siblings, grandparents, whoever makes up this family. Tell us the shape of it in your own words and we write it that way.
What their arrival changed
The waiting, the day itself, the first night at home, and what is different now. Birth details can be included or left out entirely — it is your choice.
What you hope for them
The part they will understand years later: what you want them to know, and the message you would like kept for when they are old enough to hear it.
HEAR THE STANDARD
Examples of finished songs
Different stories, different styles and different voices — the same standard of production on every song.
Always With Us
A tender family song example, written across more than one generation.
Mum, You're Amazing
A soft acoustic ballad — an example of how a song written for a mum sounds.
Olivia at Eighteen
A coming-of-age song example, written for a milestone birthday.
