You may be wondering if a Baha System is right for your child. Ask yourself these questions and if you answer "yes" to any of them, then your child may benefit from the Baha Bone Conduction Implant System.
With a bone conduction system, your child has the unique advantage of hearing the difference first. A Hearing Implant Specialist can help him or her try (demo) a sound processor so they can hear how it might sound before you make any decisions.
Ensuring your child has consistent and reliable access to hearing for life.
The Baha Implant is the strong foundation of every Baha System. The Baha BI300 is Cochlear’s latest titanium implant, which is designed and tested for long-term reliability and better sound transmission compared to other systems.1,2 Should your child’s hearing needs change over time, the Baha System offers added flexibility to either upgrade to a newer sound processor or transition between the Baha Attract and Baha Connect Systems
If your child is too young (under the age of 5) or is not yet ready for an implant, we offer a choice between the Baha Softband and Baha SoundArc, both are the first step towards better hearing.
* In the United States and Canada, the Baha Implant is indicated for children ages 5 and older.
Because your child’s hearing needs are unique and may even change over time, your family will need options for today and the future. The Baha 5 System offers three head-worn sound processors, each one designed to meet a different level of hearing loss. From the smallest to the most powerful, you’ll have peace of mind knowing that Cochlear offers your child smart choices for a lifetime of better hearing.
The award winning Cochlear™ Baha® 5 Sound Processor is 20% smaller than all other comparable sound processors,1 yet it is full of advanced hearing technologies designed to help your child hear better than ever before.
Choose the color of your child’s Baha Sound Processor for the perfect blend.
Created for those who need additional amplification because of a greater degree of hearing loss – up to 55dB -- the Cochlear™ Baha® 5 Power Sound Processor uses our most advanced, automated and smart technologies to help your child hear better in any situation, including noisy environments like the classroom.

The Baha Softband and SoundArc are designed to provide children under the age of five* with the hearing performance and amplification they need to facilitate language development on par with their hearing peers.** Both solutions are designed to provide the same benefits and hearing performance, and will work with one or two Baha 5 Sound Processors.
The Baha SoundArc is an alternative to the Softband that lets your child hear like never before. It has a modern look that kids will love. It’s lightweight, practical and, like a pair of sunglasses, easy to put on and take off. It fits securely and comfortably in place, so it is great for active kids.
The Baha Softband is a comfortable and easy-to-wear headband designed specifically for babies and toddlers. Unlike other headbands, the Softband uses the Baha SoftWear Pad, which reduces peak pressure to give greater comfort and increase the level of sound that transmits to your child’s ear.
Our innovative SmartSound® iQ technology replicates the functions of a normal hearing brain, which may give your child crisper, clearer sound, especially when it’s noisy.¹ This technology allows your child’s sound processor to automatically select the appropriate program based on where your child is and optimize the sound to enhance your child’s hearing in that listening environment.
When using SmartSound iQ in the classroom, Cochlear™ Baha® 5 Sound Processors may enhance speech and help your child hear what the teacher says. Then, in the busy cafeteria, they may tune down the background noise so your child can confidently join the conversation.
Our True Wireless™ accessories help your child hear more clearly in challenging situations by sending sound directly to the sound processor. There are no cumbersome neck-worn loops, plus the accessories are easy to use and pair.
Stream speech and music directly to the processor for excellent sound quality in noisy places. Whether in the stroller, in the classroom, on the soccer field or at a birthday party, your child can hear more clearly. The Mini Microphone 2+ can also act as an affordable alternative to an FM system at school.
From a very early age, your child wants to talk on the phone just like mom and dad. This Bluetooth®-enabled wireless technology is available when your child is ready for a smartphone or wants to enjoy music and movies on a mobile device.
Imagine your child enjoying stereo sound that goes from your TV right into the sound processor without having the volume too high for other people in the room. The TV Streamer is perfect for family movie night or when your child is playing a favorite video game.
Life is busy. Some days it’s tough to remember to communicate all the important details. That’s why we incorporated data logging technology into our sound processors. It works by recording minute-by-minute usage information that your child’s audiologist can access.
The information gathered from data logging can help the audiologist understand how your child is using the system. The audiologist can then make any necessary adjustments to help your child hear better. Data logging provides important details of your child's device use in times when you're not there — like daycare and school — giving you added peace of mind.
From a very early age, your child wants to talk on the phone just like mom and dad. Unlike any other bone conduction system, Cochlear™ Baha® 5 Sound Processors are Made for iPhone® Hearing Devices that let your child stream sound, control volume, switch programs and check battery levels directly from iPhone, iPad® or iPod touch.®
Made for iPhone Hearing Devices are designed to provide outstanding sound quality, so your child can enjoy their favorite movies, TV shows, apps, music—even a FaceTime® call from family on the other side of the world—with audio streamed directly to the sound processor. Your child can enjoy every sound, every song, every word—clearer and crisper than ever before.1
