smallTalk focuses on brain development through early language exposure. Our featured product, smallTalk NICU Connect, includes a speaker with companion apps designed specifically for use in the NICU. Parents and caregivers can record infant-directed lullabies and stories using the smallTalk app, either at the hospital or at home. The Connect speaker employs algorithms to deliver these recordings at a baby-safe volume and duration, suitable for incubators or open cribs. Its fully sealed design ensures easy cleaning, meeting infection control standards.
