Meet Ollie, the weighted octopus, a soothing friend with eight cozy arms and a whole lot of heart. Thoughtfully created to bring comfort, grounding, and sensory support, Ollie uses his special gift of touch to help settle busy minds and bring a sense of peace back into your day.

With eight comforting arms perfect for cuddling, draping, holding, or squeezing, Ollie offers deep, grounding reassurance to children who need help settling their minds or soothing big feelings. Whether he’s joining you at home, daycare, school, or on a quiet car ride, Ollie is always ready to wrap you in warmth and help you feel safe and secure.

Backed by evidence-based research, Eleanor uses Deep Pressure Touch Stimulation (DPTS)  a firm, calming sensory input that mimics warm hugs and gentle compression. This helps release serotonin and dopamine, promoting emotional regulation, deeper sleep, and a sense of safety when feeling overwhelmed. Infused with dried French lavender flowers for a calming scent and filled with natural medical stones for a gluten-free sensory experience, Eleanor is the perfect sensory companion - offering comfort, peace, and grounding support whenever you need it most.
