Nothing here yet
We haven't made that combination yet — try another phase, or have a listen to everything.
The characters
Who's in the stories.
Kip runs a café in the small hours. Slumber sits in the forest outside her window. Your child will come to know both, and they'll be exactly the same on the hundredth night as on the first.
Kip
Curious, Warm“That yellow light's on. Oh. Hello.”
Kip runs the Moonbeam Cat Café, which is open when nobody else is awake. She's a light sleeper, up in the small hours. She notices the things everyone else has stopped noticing, and moves towards whatever's struggling. She starts bedtime, in the same voice, at the same time, every night.
Slumber
Slow, Patient“Come, sit with me.”
Slumber is a sloth in the Starlight Forest, just outside Kip's window. He's been awake all night, every night, for as long as anyone can remember. He doesn't fix anything. He sits with whatever turns up, and some nights that's the thing a child needs most.
Made by people
The people behind the stories
Becky
Child therapist & author
Becky guides the emotional side of Zeepy - how the feelings children bring to bedtime shape the stories, and the product around them.
Kaley
Head of Stories
A teacher with 15 years of child development experience. Nothing publishes until Kaley has read it. She checks it's emotionally safe and right for the age it's aimed at, and keeps the characters steady from one night to the next.
Ollie
Narrator, composer and producer
Ollie reads, writes the music and mixes every track. He's the reason a sleep story and a wake story feel nothing alike. If your child drifts off to it, he made it sound that way.
EST
Elise
the voice of Kip
Elise teaches primary school by day. Every "Oh. Hello." your child hears is her. She's been Kip since the very first story, which is why Kip still sounds like Kip on the hundredth.
