Mia, our Joyk Empathy Doll makes a great companion for an older loved one – especially for anyone with a dementia living in a care home or hospital.
Doll therapy for use with dementia patients is a recognised therapy used extensively in the care sector and can help alleviate stress and anxiety as well as helping to relieve boredom.
Designed to encourage caring and nurturing instincts, she comes with a weighted bottom to feel just like a small child when being carried.
Made from soft-filled fabric and with removable clothes, her appealing eyes and cute facial expression listens to everything you say.
Why not add another companion from our range – choose from Nelly, Sara, Elias or Marco?
