Charity
For the Love of Babies
At the heart of our company is the mission to bring families together with a strong focus on benefiting its tiniest members. Our founder Lisa Furuland Kotsianis created DockATot, Sleepyhead and Aristot in order to help parents take better care of their little ones. It’s with our dedication to the betterment of babies that we have carefully chosen charities to partner with that is directly aligned with our vision.
Charities
We proudly support the following organizations
Over the last 8 years Baby2Baby provides children living in poverty, ages 0-12 years, with diapers, clothing and all the basic necessities that every child deserves.
One of the most widely known global charities in existence, Doctors Without Borders provides medical aid around the globe in underserved areas where it’s needed most. They provide lifesaving medical and humanitarian care and also speak out about what they see. In 1999, they were awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in recognition of its pioneering humanitarian work around the world. We have pledged to donate £10,000 of our proceeds to Doctors Without Borders.
DockATot Hospital Initiative
Soothing babies when they need it most
We’re extremely proud to be partnering with hospitals globally to help make the stays easier for babies as well as their parents and healthcare providers.
With donations of DockATot Deluxe+ for use in the newborn units of hospitals, our goal is for babies to feel more secure and soothed during their treatments, scans and examinations under supervised care.
For this meaningful partnership, we developed our dock covers with the same soothing fabrics we are known for but modified to be compatible with MRI and CT scanners. Using our docks with these special covers helps babies relax and sleep during these oftentimes unsettling scans.
DockATot is currently in use at the Carolina Institute for Developmental Disabilities at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill; Boston Children's Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts; and the Waisman Center in Madison, Wisconsin.
This is just the beginning
