Nicola Maria Rose (Nikki) is the founder of HushAway® and a lifelong advocate for children’s wellbeing. An award-winning trainer & coach, certified Neurodivergent Inclusive Coach, ADHD Coach and Sound Therapy Practitioner, Nikki blends mentoring, coaching, storytelling and sound to create audio experiences that help children self-regulate, settle to sleep, and feel emotionally safe.
With seven years as an award-winning nursery owner, Nikki understands the real moments families and educators face - transitions, overwhelm, and the need for a gentle “pause button.” Drawing on 20+ years in business, brand, and marketing, Nikki designs HushAway® to be simple, trusted, and ready for real life: two-to-five-minute stories, micro-meditations, and soundscapes crafted with ASMR, Solfeggio frequencies, and binaural beats.
Nikki’s approach is warm, empathetic, and evidence-informed – supporting children before and alongside formal diagnosis, and championing co-regulation at home and in schools. Nikki also volunteers with Bookmark, recording and reading to help early readers build calm, confidence, and a love of stories. Above all, Nikki believes that “one quiet moment can change a whole day for a child - sound is an incredible healer. Let’s help our children tune in to it.”

The Science Behind HushAway®
The Science Behind HushAway®
Parents tell us that HushAway® helps their children settle more easily at bedtime, manage big feelings with greater confidence, reduce sensory overwhelm and stay more focused during learning or play. These experiences reflect the research behind ASMR and binaural beats, which show improvements in relaxation, emotional steadiness and sleep quality when used consistently.

These experiences reflect the research behind ASMR and binaural beats, which show improvements in relaxation, emotional steadiness and sleep quality when used consistently.
ASMR
Whisper-led ASMR offers predictable, soothing sensory input. Studies show it can activate areas of the brain linked to comfort, intimacy and emotional connection, which supports relaxation and steadier moods for children who respond to it.

Binaural Beats
These tones gently guide the brain towards particular states by influencing brainwave patterns. Research suggests binaural beats can support relaxation, focus and sleep readiness, which can help children settle their minds during busy or overwhelming moments.

Solfeggio And Frequency Based Audio
Specific frequencies are associated with emotional balance and nervous system regulation. When used softly and predictably, they can help children feel more grounded and steady throughout their routines.

A Journey Shaped By Families, Guided By Science
A Journey Shaped By Families, Guided By Science
HushAway® began with a desire to support children who felt overwhelmed by the world around them and parents who needed a gentle, reliable tool. As we explored the science behind sound and sensory support, we built a space that mirrors what families told us they needed most. The P.E.A.C.E philosophy grew from that journey and continues to guide us today.
HushAway® is still growing, shaped by parents, children and the real experiences they share. Our promise is to continue creating safe, predictable audio that children can trust and return to throughout their day.
