Lullaby Project

Our proposed intervention is the randomized participation of pregnant individuals with epilepsy in the Lullaby Project coordinated by a musical institution in Toronto. The Lullaby Project is an initiative first created by Carnegie Hall's Weill Music Institute. In this program, pregnant women and/or new mothers are paired with professional musicians to compose and write personal lullabies for their child(ren). Since its inception in 2011, the project has expanded globally and have helped numerous families write original lullabies for their newborns. The Lullaby intervention is unlike traditional music therapy as patients are actively participating in the creative song-writing process, not singularly in passive listening. Through sessions, participants will be given an opportunity to share experiences, experiment with musical arrangements, write lyrics, and receive positive feedback from the musician.
