Therapy Dolls Canada is a family-owned business in St. Marys, Ontario, with roots dating back to 1972 and more than 20 years of specialized doll-making experience. Inspired in part by the family’s personal experience with dementia, the company creates weighted dolls for seniors, people living with dementia, long-term care communities, and individuals with sensory needs.
The company owns more than 400 original doll molds and offers over 50 Therapy Doll models in different faces, sizes, skin tones, and styles. Vinyl components made from its molds are brought to St. Marys, where each doll is weighted, stuffed, assembled, dressed, and finished. Therapy Dolls Canada also emphasizes safety, using independently tested vinyl components, Canadian-made cloth bodies and clothing, and Canadian-sourced stuffing and weighting materials, with additional design considerations for dolls intended for long-term care environments.
