Dr Elise Piazza said: "It's so consistent across mothers, they all use the same kind of shift to go between those modes. " 'Vocal footprint' Many of the traits of baby talk, such as differences in speed and pitch, are thought to help infants develop language skills, but this is the first time a shift in timbre has been discovered.

It is a question that has troubled parents down the years.
Just how much time should they spend with their children when they are growing up? Now a new study suggests that the answer – at least for mothers – should be as much as they can afford to give. The study, by academics from the University of Essex and University College London, published in this week’s edition of the Economic Journal, finds that a young child’s cognitive and social skills are improved considerably by spending more time with their mother between the ages of three and seven. It also found that first-born children tend to benefit more from an early investment of their mothers’ time than siblings born after them. The study is the first of its kind in the UK – and one of the first in the world – to examine directly the relationship between the time mothers spend with their children and the skills those children go on to develop. The authors acknowledged that their study fails to examine the role played by fathers.
