WHAT IS A NURTURA BABY
Nurtura Babies are realistic, full-body silicone dolls that offer a more affordable alternative to traditional reborn dolls.
Each doll weighs between 3–3.5 kg and measures approximately 46–50 cm in length, so it closely replicates the physical experience of holding a newborn. As a result, organisations can use them for both emotional engagement and practical learning.
Unlike reborn dolls, Nurtura Babies support real interaction. They are made to be held, used, and integrated into programs rather than displayed or preserved.
WHAT MAKES NURTURA BABIES DIFFERENT
REALISTIC, FUNCTIONAL DESIGN
Each Nurtura Baby combines lifelike detail with practical functionality, so organisations can use them in real scenarios. They include:
- anatomically correct body design
- a range of skin tones and baby styles
- soft silicone construction with realistic detail
- open mouths for feeding interaction
- the ability to be bathed and used with liquids
- natural head movement, so users must support the head correctly
Standard dolls do not include drink-and-wet functionality. However, they still support feeding interaction and can simulate scenarios such as burping and spit-up during guided use. If your program requires full feeding simulation, you can upgrade to a drink-and-wet option.
GUIDED AUDIO AND LEARNING CONTENT
You can add an optional discreet speaker and access a password-protected learning library to support structured interaction.
The library includes:
- calming audio for sensory regulation
- guided role play for interaction and routine-based learning
- newborn care education, including feeding, handling, and settling
- health awareness topics such as whooping cough
Because the content is practical and structured, teams can use it in one-on-one support, small groups, or formal programs.
In addition, you can tailor audio and learning materials to match your organisation’s needs, scenarios, and education goals.
BIRTH AND EDUCATION SETUP
For organisations delivering birth or health education, Nurtura supports more detailed, hands-on learning.
Optional birth-style presentation includes:
- amniotic sac-style wrap
- attached umbilical cord
- cord clamping and cutting
This setup allows participants to engage directly with the process. As a result, they understand key concepts more clearly than through observation alone.
You can adapt the experience to suit different age groups and settings. For example, you might run a simplified demonstration or a more detailed education session.
In addition, you can customise the presentation, language, and level of realism to align with your program and audience.
A PRACTICAL ALTERNATIVE TO REBORNS
Reborn dolls are often expensive, so many organisations struggle to use them at scale.
Nurtura offers a more accessible option while still maintaining realism and functionality. As a result, organisations can implement programs more easily across teams and settings.
