White Noise For Babies
White noise is a gentle, effective way to help babies fall asleep and stay asleep. It mimics the comforting sounds of the womb — the whoosh of blood flow, heartbeat rhythms, and soft ambient noise that your baby heard before birth. This familiar soundscape helps calm newborns, reduce crying, and ease the transition into the outside world.
As babies grow, white noise continues to support better sleep by masking disruptive background noises like household chatter, street noise, or siblings. It can also help babies link sleep cycles, leading to longer naps and more restful overnight sleep — which means better rest for everyone.

Baby White Noise Machine Features
When choosing a white noise machine for your baby, start by thinking about where and how you’ll be using it. If you're often on the go or your baby naps in different rooms, a portable, rechargeable model is ideal. For the nursery, a plug-in machine with more sound options and timer settings may be a better fit.
Look for machines that offer true white noise, as well as additional sounds like lullabies, heartbeat, or ocean waves — these give you flexibility as your baby’s preferences change. Other helpful features include adjustable volume, built-in night lights, auto-off timers, and loop-free sound for continuous playback without interruption.
We stock a range of parent-approved options at Earjobs to suit every sleep routine — from minimalist machines to feature-rich multitaskers.

What is a white noise machine for babies?
Essentially a white noise machine for a baby recreates a comforting womb-like environment that is very calming and soothing. This noise encourages your baby to fall asleep faster and stay sleeping for longer. A baby sound machine will help reduce their anxiety, and works to drown out any other startling noises like doorbells, dogs barking or people talking loudly. At Earjobs, we have the best white noise machine for your baby in Australia.
What age can babies use white noise?
Your baby can be exposed to white noise from birth to any age. The only thing you will need to be careful about is the proximity of your white noise machine and how loud it is turned up. The best white noise machines will mimic the sounds the baby hears when it is in the womb.
What does white noise do to babies?
A white noise machine creates a womb-like feeling for a baby to ensure they get a good sleep. It soothes them and helps them to fall asleep and stay asleep. It drowns out other noises that may startle a baby or wake them up prematurely. The white noise is also known to reduce anxiety and stress to a baby that has been unwell or in a less than calm environment.
How loud should you have white noise for a baby?
It’s recommended that babies are only exposed to white noise from a machine that has different sound level adjustments. Your white noise machine should be set to no louder than 50 decibels in order to not damage the baby’s hearing. You will need to place the machine away from the baby’s crib, use a low volume setting, and stop playing the white noise once the child has fallen asleep.
