At TherapyDolls.ca, every doll we offer has been selected with one purpose in mind: to be a safe, comforting, and a durable companion for residents in care settings. Whether you are a Director of Care evaluating products for your facility, an occupational therapist sourcing tools for your practice, or a family member choosing a gift for a parent living with dementia, you deserve complete confidence in what you are placing into someone's hands.
Material Safety
Our therapy dolls are made with medical-grade vinyl sourced from established European suppliers with a long record of producing materials for sensitive and clinical applications. The vinyl is non-toxic and has been selected specifically for its suitability in environments where residents may hold, handle, or rest with a doll for extended periods.
We do not use materials intended for general consumer or craft applications. Every component is chosen with the health and safety of vulnerable adults and children in mind.
Genuine and Authorized Products
TherapyDolls.ca is among a small number of suppliers that carry only genuine, authorized dolls sculpted by real artists. We do not source imitations or knockoffs, and we do not offer products through unofficial channels. When you order from us, you can be asssured of receiving the highest quality product committed to its authenticity.
Safety Standards
All therapy dolls available through TherapyDolls.ca conform to both USA ASTM F963 and European EN71 safety standards.
These are the rigorous standards applied to children's products, two of the most demanding consumer safety benchmarks in the world. For care professionals, this means the materials in every doll have been independently verified as free from harmful substances, structurally sound under repeated handling. It reflects testing against defined criteria designed to protect the most vulnerable users.
CPSC Compliance
Doll Kits International Ltd, the company behind TherapyDolls.ca, is a registered business with the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). Our products are subject to the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA), which mandates conformance with ASTM F963, which is the highest certification for childrens toys. For facilities that require compliance documentation as part of their procurement process, this registration and certification provides the formal assurance you need.
ISO Compliance
Our main manufacturing partner complies to ISO, which is the highest international standard applied for product safety, consistency and fair labour practices.
Designed for Care Settings
Our therapy dolls were developed with the needs of care environments in mind, and every product decision reflects that purpose.
Weighted design for calming and grounding.
The intentional weight of our dolls supports a sense of calm and physical grounding for residents living with dementia, Alzheimer's disease, anxiety, or sensory processing needs. The gentle resistance of a weighted doll in the arms can reduce agitation, encourage stillness, and provide a consistent source of comfort during moments of distress or disorientation.
Medical Grade Materials
The materials used in our dolls are safe for close contact. Residents may hold, stroke, or sleep with a therapy doll for hours at a time. Our materials are appropriate for the sustained close contact that is central to how therapy dolls are used. This is a core requirement of the design, not an afterthought.
Magnet-free as standard for care facilities.
All dolls ordered through TherapyDolls.ca are supplied magnet-free as our default. No action is required on your part to receive a magnet-free doll. If for any reason you require a doll with magnets, please note this specifically in your order notes at checkout. We have made magnet-free our standard because the safety of residents with pacemakers and implanted cardiac devices is not something we are willing to leave to chance.
Rooted in decades of professional doll industry expertise.
TherapyDolls.ca and Dolls Inc are newly launched ventures, but they are built on a foundation that is anything but new. Both are backed by Doll Kits International, operating as MacPherson Arts & Crafts, a company that has been a respected name in the professional reborn doll world for many years. MacPherson Arts & Crafts has spent that time developing deep expertise in vinyl materials and quality standards, forging direct relationships with original sculptors, and building a reputation for selling only genuine, officially licensed doll kits at a time when unauthorized and copied designs have been widespread in the market. The knowledge of vinyl, the sculptor relationships, and the ownership of the molds behind our products all come from that long history. When you purchase from TherapyDolls.ca, you are not buying from a newcomer working things out as they go. You are purchasing from a team that has earned its understanding of this product category over many years, and has now brought that expertise into a new focus: the care and therapy community.
