Questions? We've Got You Covered

What is the purpose of the supportive buddy?

Supportive little buddies were initially created for our child during medical interventions. They serve as reminders of essential strategies we could employ to ease the experience for all of us. Let’s be honest: many moments in such environments are challenging, and these buddies help make those incredibly tough times a bit more manageable.

Today, they’re utilized beyond hospitals, finding their place in therapy offices, clinics, classrooms, and homes, aiding in the development of foundational skills that everyone can benefit from.

How can they help with coping mechanisms?

Each supportive little buddy has different coping tools, skills and characteristics that help the nervous system. When the user works with the skills and characteristics they can activate the parasympathetic nervous system, which is the "rest and digest" part of the system that counteracts the "fight-or-flight" response. In addition, some of our buddies are heavier than others, promoting deep pressure which automatically creates a sense of calm, slowing your heart rate, and allowing you to move from a state of stress and emotional reactivity to one of emotional balance and clear thinking.

Is this product suitable for children and adults?

Yes, this product is appropriate for both children and adults.

What design features can I expect for each buddy?

Each supportive little buddy design features include:

  • Gentle, balanced weight
  • Sensory friendly textures
  • Free of metal and magnets
  • Soft, durable plush
  • Glow logo stitching for extra play
  • Symbolic aiding with conversations

Pick the right buddy by weight, play, symbolism and size.

Can I personalize my buddy's experience?

Yes, you can personalize it using its name tag, and if you're looking to do more, like undergo surgery with it, they can personally assist you with that too, serving as a great role model helping parents or medical staff to explain what will happen next - a hero and trusted companion!

What our customers say

Don't just take our word for it

The My Buddy weighted stuffy has been such a meaningful addition for children who stuggle with anxiety, trauma and emotional regulation. The soft, comforting design instantly feels approachable and safe, while the gentle weight provides a steady, grounding presense. It's more than just a toy - it's a therapeutic tool that helps kids feel calm, secure, and supporting in moments when they might be overwhelmed.

What I love most about My Buddy is its versatility.

We have the Black Leopard, Moon Jellyfish, Fox, and Sea Turtle at our establishment. We find that our younger patients instinctively gravitate towards them. We love them and so do the kiddos!
