Hi,

Not sure if this is helpful to your student, but my small corpus of 
maternal language to two infants (the Soderstrom corpus) includes one 
mother who recorded largely in the absence of siblings and one in which 
the siblings were often present). They are infants though (under 12 
months), so the children themselves aren't talking yet...
