The Cuski Miniboos offer a specialized sensory experience designed for premature babies in neonatal care environments. This unique comforter tool allows parents to transfer their scent safely to support infant bonding during incubation periods.
Cuski Miniboos are used with babies who are born too soon or too poorly. They are used as a part of the developmental care programme pacticed on all NICU or SCBU departments within the NHS in UK hospitals. When babies are born prematurely and in the incubators, it is advised not to over handle. This means mummies and daddies cannot always have those precious cuddles that help with the important parent/baby bonding process, such as kangaroo care, skin to skin, which is essential to baby's development.
This is where Miniboo comes in.. Mummy/Daddy keeps Miniboo on their person to pick up all those lovely mummy smells and then places it next to baby in the incubator, baby can smell mummy/daddy and keep swapping the 2 Miniboos so parent can smell baby too, which in turn, if breast feeding, will help the milk flow.
Research from midwives have also noted Miniboo has helped lower baby's blood pressure. Can also be used with twins that have been separated. Miniboos are the perfect sensitive gift for premature babies and their parents. Miniboos have their own NHS protocol/ guidelines when using on the neonatal unit.
