Working with Goldsmith University, the song was then tested with a group of 26 babies in order to find the right tempo and melody to make them happier.

It’s the first song of it’s kind to be proven to make babies happier.

Melissa added: “I thought it was crazy, my baby was screaming, I played this and now it’s his favourite song, and the only thing that will calm him down if he’s hysterical.”

The video was a hit and received viewed over 70k ‘likes’, many parents agreed that the song worked wonders for putting their kids to sleep.
