How to read this: each number is how many reviews raised that topic in their own words — not a percentage or a score. Bars compare topics within a box only, so the longest bar is whatever came up most here, marked Top. The dots above show how much evidence we have, not how good the show is.

I don’t really review podcasts. This was just that bad. 4 ads in a 12 minute episode. One that is trying to make a child sleepy, so you have this calm music, then bam, interrupted by the ad. Not just once, 2 in the middle and then beginning and end. And the actual story was maybe two minutes

My daughter found this pod cast and it’s great blend of calming their body, story and drifting off to sleep music. She falls asleep well before the music end every time. I wish there was a way to avoid the adds however. Maybe there is?! A subscription or something?

Little Sleepers
My 4 year old loves these stories and the music is so calming. He’s often asleep before the end. Every day he asks when there will be a new one as he loves listening to them. Your voice is very soothing and really helps him settle. Thank you!
