Adequate sleep is essential for a child’s growth and development. However, a growing number of children are experiencing trouble falling asleep. Smartphone audio-based mobile applications with soothing melodies and calming nighttime stories may improve sleep onset. Our study examined the efficacy of Moshi Twilight, an app designed to improve sleep onset, among children ages 3-8 years old using a parent-child dyadic approach. Methods Our within-subjects pre-post study design focused on healthy children studied over 10 days, spanning 3 weeknights and 2 weekend nights. During the baseline (Days 1-5) and exposure (Days 6-10) conditions the Child Sleep Health Questionnaire was used to measure children’s sleep behavior. The PROMIS and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index were used to assess parents’ sleep quality. Parents exposed their child to 1 story per night (15-20 minutes) during the exposured condition. Statistical analysis was based on paired t-tests, independent t-tests, and correlations. Results On average, participating parents were 37 (SD +9.6) year-old mothers. The sample was: 60% Black; 20% White, 20% other race/ethnicity. On average, children were 4 (SD + 0.78) years old and 50% male. Paired t-tests showed significant differences in children’s sleep onset within 20 minutes (t=2.582, 95% CI 0.116, 2.634, p= 0.036). Significant correlations were noted for children’s bedtime consistency (r = -0.755, p = 0.030), falling asleep in own bed (r = 0.735, p=0.015) and sleep duration (r = -0.715, p=0.046,) Significant correlations and paired t-test in parents’ sleep onset were also found (r = 0.744, p = 0.014); (mean= -1.2, t= -3.674, 95% CI -1.939, -0.461, p=0.005) Conclusion Our results showed that the audio-based sleep app, Moshi Twilight, might be useful in improving sleep health among both children and parents. This could be included in enhance bedtime routine among preschool-aged children. Support Bezos Grant and Community Service Plan grant.
