Our Mission: To provide emotional support to kids battling medical conditions through stuffed animals created to reflect them.
Our
Story
At Medical Minis, our mission is to provide emotional support to kids
with chronic illnesses through stuffed animals designed to reflect their unique conditions. Medical Minis was founded in 2022 by a teenage girl and her mom who witnessed the comfort a stuffed animal can bring - especially one that reflects the medical challenges a child is facing. We want to spread that joy and support to other children in similar situations.

What is a Medical Mini?
A Medical Mini is a stuffed animal (mini) that is selected
based on the child's likes/interests and then customized to reflect their medical condition(s). After the mini receives it customization, it is shipped to the child anywhere in the United States completely free of charge!

"It sparks conversation, especially with younger children and I can explain to them how it works on the bear!"

"My mini has made me feel represented in a world that is not made for me. It brings me comfort and hope and helps decrease my anxiety. It is a visual representation of what I’ve been through and I am very grateful for it.

"My mini has a feeding tube like me and makes me happy that he eats like I do. My mom thinks Medical Minis is very important to the chronic illness community to bring happiness to all the kids suffering from illness that they don’t understand."
