How to Soundproof a Baby Room

The Importance of Quiet on Child Development

Don’t wake the baby! Newborns need up to 16 hours of sleep a day, and babies ages one to two need up to 14 hours. Failure to get enough sleep or quality sleep can increase infants’ and children’s risk of diabetes, obesity and depression. Learning how to soundproof a baby room or nursery will help protect them.

Outside noise can easily interrupt your baby’s sleep and negatively impact their development. Lawn equipment such as weed eaters can reach 96 decibels and planes can reach 100 decibels. These noises can cause hearing damage and impact children’s reading ability as well as interrupt sleep.

If you live in a noisy neighborhood with bustling traffic, barking dogs, or nearby trains or planes, you have options to keep your nursery peaceful so you children can get sufficient sleep.

See how to soundproof your baby room to prevent outside noise from waking up your child.

How to Soundproof a Baby Room From The Ground Up

High carpet dampens sound, while hardwood floors amplify it. If carpeting isn’t possible, fluffy or wooly rugs can help. Consider putting large furniture against the walls where the noise is most abundant, such as dressers, changing tables, and chairs. And of course – soundproof your windows.
