How to Record Bedtime Stories in Your Voice

How do you record bedtime stories in your own voice?

To record bedtime stories in your own voice with NinniTales, you record a short voice sample once; the app then creates a private voice model and narrates fresh, personalised stories in your voice. You don't have to read each story aloud.

This is different from older approaches (like recording onto an audio card) where you must read every story yourself. Here, a one-time setup means your child can hear an endless supply of new stories in your voice.

Tips for a clear, calm recording

Record somewhere quiet, away from background noise like TVs or fans, and speak at your natural, gentle bedtime pace. A warm, slow, slightly soft voice works best, the same way you'd read to your child in person.

You don't need professional equipment; a normal phone in a quiet room is plenty. Sit comfortably, relax your shoulders, and imagine your child is right there listening.

Adding other family members

Once you've recorded your voice, other loved ones can add theirs too, a partner, or a grandparent who lives far away. Your child can then choose whose voice tells tonight's story.

Each voice stays private to your family, is encrypted, and can be deleted at any time from Settings.
