A premature birth presents families with an extraordinary situation. Amid the monitors, sounds, and many uncertainties, there is often little room for what is otherwise taken for granted during the postpartum period: closeness. The amiamusica organization brings music to the neonatal unit, thereby connecting parents with their premature babies.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

A baby is born prematurely. The premature baby and his or her parents suddenly find themselves surrounded by beeping machines, unfamiliar voices, and unfamiliar routines. Mothers and fathers have to navigate a situation for which no one can truly prepare them. Touching, holding, soothing, breastfeeding: Many things that seem second nature when caring for a newborn simply aren\u2019t possible under these circumstances.<\/p>\n\n

And then there\u2019s the music.<\/p>\n\n

Music from the Very Beginning<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

Gentle sounds and soothing voices can foster a sense of closeness, even when a child is in an incubator. The nonprofit organization amiamusica<\/a> volunteers its time to provide music for premature and sick newborns and their parents. Various studies show that this music therapy can help premature babies regulate their systems and also positively influence their parents\u2019 well-being. \u201cMusic creates a sense of closeness when touch or direct contact isn\u2019t possible,\u201d says Dr. Friederike Haslbeck, president of amiamusica, a music therapist, and a researcher. \u201cParents can use their voices to show their child: \u2018I\u2019m here.\u2019\u201d <\/p>\n\n

“Music creates a sense of closeness when physical touch or direct contact isn’t possible. Parents can use their voices to let their child know, ‘I’m here.'”<\/p>Dr. Friederike Haslbeck<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n

The amiamusica association is made up of volunteer parents, musicians, therapists, medical specialists, and caregivers. They bring together a wide range of experiences and make knowledge about music and preterm birth accessible. This expertise is intended to reach families as early as their time in the hospital. The organization develops informational and instructional materials that those affected can use directly in their daily lives. These include songbooks that encourage parents to sing and make music with their children. Information and practical insights about music in neonatology are also available online. \u201cOn the one hand, we want to convey knowledge about the effects and meaningful use of music,\u201d says Haslbeck, \u201cand at the same time, we encourage parents to take an active role themselves.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

Empowering Parents<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

The point is not for parents to make as much music as possible. On the contrary: In the neonatal unit, the focus is on the individual child\u2019s situation. The informational materials on acoustics, voice, and music developed by amiamusica therefore establish a clear guiding principle: Avoid overstimulation and pay attention to the needs of the individual child. Whenever possible, parents should also use their own voices. This can be a way for them to take an active role during what is often a difficult time.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cMany parents feel helpless after a premature birth because they have little control over the situation,\u201d says Haslbeck. Medical decisions are made by professionals, and daily life is dominated by medical exams and equipment. \u201cMusic can play a different role here,\u201d says Haslbeck, \u201cby having parents sing, hum, or sing a song to their child themselves.\u201d For the president, it is precisely this practicality in everyday life that is crucial. Music should not be another program that parents have to juggle. It should fit into the situation and make use of what\u2019s already there: the voice, a song, and many shared moments.<\/p>\n\n

Low-Threshold Donations<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

amiamusica\u2019s work also brings families together at events. At the music picnics, families gather, listen to music, sing, and strike up conversations with one another. For a small organization in particular, this is also important for funding. amiamusica operates on a volunteer basis and funds its projects through membership dues, donations, and charity events. \u201cThat\u2019s why a simple idea came about for the music picnics: Anyone who wants to contribute but doesn\u2019t have cash on hand can still donate right there on the spot,\u201d says Haslbeck.<\/p>\n\n

\"\"
Make music together and raise funds at the amiamusica music picnics.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n

The solution lay in a small QR code. These can be generated through the SpendenSchweiz donation platform. \u201cAt the music picnics, there are now flyers with a QR code that lets people donate directly using their smartphones.\u201d The first events showed that the idea worked. A total of about 2,400 francs was raised for amiamusica and a music project from 34 people. \u201cWe\u2019re now generating higher donation proceeds at digital fundraising events compared to traditional cash donations,\u201d says Haslbeck. <\/p>\n\n

The president is a fan of simplicity: \u201cQR codes don\u2019t require any complex technology and make donating very accessible.\u201d The digital solution also keeps administrative overhead to a minimum. Donations are processed through Spheriq\u2019s donation platform; confirmations are sent automatically, and amiamusica receives a consolidated payment. \u201cThose who prefer to donate the traditional way can, of course, continue to use a payment slip or the donation box,\u201d says Haslbeck.<\/p>\n\n

A Hub for Music and Premature Birth<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

amiamusica\u2019s events demonstrate how music brings people together. \u201cWe don\u2019t just want to develop our own programs; we want to bring people and knowledge together,\u201d explains Haslbeck. Parents meet with experts, musicians with therapists, researchers with those affected, and sponsors with projects. \u201cIn the long term, we want to become a central platform and hub for premature birth and music in Switzerland,\u201d says Haslbeck. This requires more than just individual songbooks or events. \u201cMusic should be more firmly embedded in health, social, and educational systems. To achieve this, we want to develop new programs together with the target groups.\u201d This task goes far beyond simply making music. \u201cIt\u2019s about how parents can be supported in a difficult life situation and what role they themselves play in that process,\u201d says Haslbeck. <\/p>\n\n

Most people have a voice. Many listen to songs with their unborn child as early as during pregnancy. Children in the womb hear melodies and feel rhythms. These are resources that create shared moments of closeness.<\/p>Dr. Friederike Haslbeck<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n

And yet simplicity seems to be the special ingredient in amiamusica\u2019s recipe: music is understood as something very simple that people already possess. \u201cMost people have a voice. Many listen to songs with their unborn child as early as during pregnancy. Children in the womb hear melodies and feel rhythms. These are resources that create shared moments of closeness,\u201d says Haslbeck. For families dealing with a premature birth, this can foster a sense of closeness that doesn\u2019t depend on medical equipment or specialized knowledge. And for the child, it provides a familiar sound in an environment where so much is unfamiliar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A premature birth presents families with an extraordinary situation.
