Introducing Ollie, the cuddliest crochet octopus designed with love by a medical mama for your little one's comfort in NICU, PICU, or special care nurseries.

Hospital stays can be daunting, but Ollie is here to provide solace for both mum & bub so you can focus on bonding. Crafted from the softest chenille yarn sourced from Australia, Ollie's tentacles are reminiscent of the umbilical cord, offering babies a soothing grip while preventing them from tugging at cords and tubes.

Key Features:

  • Mini Ollie: Approx. 7.5cm wide head, perfect for tiny hands.
  • Available in Blush, Mushroom, & Seafoam, each a gentle hue to calm and comfort.
  • 8 plush, curly tentacles for your baby to hold onto.

Benefits for NICU Babies:

  • Mimics the umbilical cord, providing familiarity and comfort.
  • Prevents accidental removal of medical equipment, reducing trauma.
  • Helps stabilize heart rate and increase oxygenation.
  • Doubles as a gentle support for intubation tubing.
  • Grows with your baby, becoming a cherished companion and a super cute way to track growth milestones.

Care Instructions:

  • Washable at 60°C for easy maintenance.

Handcrafted in Adelaide, Ollie isn't just for hospital stays; he's a lifelong friend for all babies and children, with safety always in mind (please adhere to SIDS guidelines).

Worry-Free Purchase: Concerned about hospital regulations? Our hassle-free returns policy ensures you can shop with confidence. If your NICU doesn't allow Ollie, simply return him for a full refund—no questions asked. While some hospitals have strict rules, many parents find Ollie becomes a cherished keepsake beyond the NICU journey.

Please note: Hospital policies regarding toys vary, and we cannot be held responsible if Ollie isn't permitted in your NICU.

beautiful & soft mini ollie

I bought the mini octopus for my Grandson Huxley, he absolutely loves it and it was the first cuddly that he was introduced to in hospital. He loves rubbing it on his face. The service and delivery was so quick. It is really the most lovely handcrafted creation. I really wanted to ensure it was a safe option too that my daughter could use without worrying. There is kits to think about with new babies. Thank you so much.

Mini Ollie Octopus

I absolutely love these gorgeous little Octopus. They are super soft and beautifully made. I bought a couple for baby gifts and Sharne had them done so quickly. I received them beautifully boxed and wrapped. I can’t wait to give them to their recipients as I know they will get great comfort from the cord like tentacles.
