About the port

An implanted port is like a secret door inside the body. It helps doctors give medicine and take blood with less fuss. It’s like having a tiny superhero helper!

Port access was a very traumatic experience for our daughter when she had cancer. I designed Boo in the hope he would help with port procedures, helping other children feel less alone and have some control during the process.

Boo the OT assistant!

As an Occupational Therapist, Boo has been a wonderful resource to use in therapy sessions with my paediatric clients. Boo has supported my clients to explore and express their emotions in a safe, playful and gentle way. I'm privileged to have Boo as my OT assistant!

We love Boo!!

As a paediatric exercise physiologist, I see a lot of children for all different complex medical conditions and Boo has been a wonderful addition to my consultations. It has helped the children I work with be able to express themselves and explain to me how their feeling prior to our session starting without them having to verbally explain. I also use Boo at home with my son, although he is only still quite young, I know this type of exposure to expressing emotions helps him throughout his lifetime so he knows that it is okay to have these feelings, and also that as a parent I am here to support him.

Amazing product!

I’m a psychologist working with children, and I can’t rave about this product enough! Whilst it would be perfect for families going through cancer treatment, or any other chronic illness- buddy boo is also wonderful for kids who have difficulty sharing their emotions, struggle with articulation or who are non-speaking. I’m so grateful to have this tool to share with my clients ♥️

Absolutely love everything about this!

My Type 1 Diabetic son was lucky enough to be gifted a Buddy Boo and it had (and continues to have) such a positive impact on him. He no longer feels alone in his journey and he is able to use the emotion badges to help express how he is feeling. He has proudly taken his Boo to Diabetes Camp and sleeps with him every night.

LOVE Buddy Boo

My kids LOVE their buddy boo. Each night before they go to sleep, they talk about their emotions as they place the badges on Boo. Buddy boo makes them so happy and calm.
