Christina Stewart comes from a Highland background and the singing of lullabies and other traditional songs around the house was taken for granted as she was growing up.  She went on to study Traditional Song as part of her degree at Edinburgh University and the School of Scottish Studies.  Performing and teaching traditional song have been constant features of her life and in recent years she has taught for Highland Council, the Traditional Music and Song Association of Scotland, Balnain House, Hi-Arts and the Celtic Connections Festival working with all age groups from pre-school to adults.

Out of two of her great passions - her desire to give her children a secure and happy start to life and her love of Scottish traditional culture, Christina developed the 'Kist o Dreams' project whose aim is to encourage mothers, fathers, grannies and other carers of young children to sing lullabies to their children by making a CD of lullabies from Scottish tradition available.
