Model Cochlear™ Baha® -Cochlear Baha Start for Kids
Baha Start allows your child to experience hearing through bone conduction without the need for surgery. It`s a bone conduction solution for children with conductive hearing loss, mixed hearing loss and single-sided sensorineural deafness (SSD). Baha Start consists of one or two sound processors worn on either Baha Softband or SoundArc™. The sound processor captures sound in the air and converts the sound into vibrations which are carried through the bone to the inner ear. The Baha Softband and SoundArc are lightweight and easy to wear with a secure and comfortable fit. They are available in several sizes and different colours, so your child can choose the one that suits them the best.
Early access to sound is proven to make a difference in helping children learn, engage and fully experience the richness of their environment.3 Baha Start may be the solution your child needs to access sound as early as possible. It’s designed to deliver sound to help your child to develop on par with their hearing peers.3,4
With our latest sound processor, Baha 6 Max, your child will have a small and powerful sound processor designed to deliver clear, rich and natural sound5 without getting in the way of their everyday life.
Designed for young children
Your child starts learning to communicate before they say "mama" or "dada." It`s important to give your baby access to sound early.6
Comfortable and soft
The Softband features Baha SoftWear™ pads, designed to reduce pressure on the skin while also allowing sound transmission.7
Adaptable
An adjustable strap helps you get a snug fit on your active baby or toddler, while a safety release opens the Softband if it catches on an object.
Designed with a modern look
Like a pair of sunglasses, the SoundArc is easy to put on and take off. It can fit one or two Baha sound processors.
Adjustable fit
No two heads are alike. That’s why SoundArc is designed to fit different shapes and sizes, comfortably and securely.
Personalisation
Soft coloured tips let your child match their hair, style or clothes, so they can express themselves and enjoy wearing their SoundArc.
