Our Story
Jambalaya Began in the NICU
Libi Kavanah's Grandson was born two months premature.
During the first month of his life the family took turns staying with him in the NICU,
Kangarooing and singing softly to him.
While he was in the
Neonatal Intensive Care Unit,
Libi noticed that there were
alarms and bells monitoring the infants health.
These went off constantly.
Libi wondered what affect this
'alarming' introduction to life would have on these
small beings.
Libi decided then and there that she would contact
some of her musician friends and have them help her
create soothing sounds tuned specifically to the soothing frequencies of the Alpha and Theta waves.
These gentle Sound Waves
softly interwoven into music
that incorporate the 'bells, whistles and
alarms'of the hospital setting
transforming the NICU 'noise' into a more soothing atmosphere
.By turning the 'noise' of the hospital into
subtle soft healing soothing music
Libi believed that the children's first
life experience could be gently
transformed from aplace of fear into a
place of calm peace
When her grandson grew big enough to
come home from the hospital,
Libi continued to be an important person
in his life.
She would often take walks with him on her back.
They would walk along the beach and
Libi made up songs about what they saw as they went along.
Libi was inspired to design a family music program
especially for her grandson and for all the families of
Children in the NICU, PECU or who have special needs. Libi worked for 4 years compiling just the right music
to bring the feelings of
love and togetherness and
fun into the
music program she envisioned.
The Music you hear on this website page s the music
Libi worked with to create for the NICU and PECU as well as for the Parents of these Children.
