Hi T.,
I think you could also use a radio and/or a fan, just a small one to make some noise. With the radio you could even buy cd's rather than just listening to the radio, with the fan you can just run on low or even a ceiling fan would work also.
I am a home child care provider and all my daycare kids sleep in the living room, to keep some noise going I leave the t.v. on.
So I know what you are talking about. Hope this helps, W.
All my daycare kids range in age from 2 yrs old (the oldest) to 5 months.
