being a nicu parent is hard

I got the new Sunshine colours! So much more beautiful and vibrant in person, soooooo, soooo soft and completely adorable! I kinda want to keep one for myself 😅

I love them already! 😍

My 2 boys absolutely became attached to their Ollie's immediately, I placed them down my shirt for approx 45mins while doing night time routine and they began to snuggle them and my baby even tried to eat it. Haha thr colours are absolutely stunning and they are so very soft and snuggly thanks 😊 ❤️

We received our Ollie today and oh my gosh as I opened the package I was met with the softest little octopus.
My little one was asleep so I placed it by his hand.
We aren’t a NICU family but am hoping this little teddy will assist with comforting our bub as we slowly transition to his cot!
I am so amazed by the quality and craftsmanship of Ollie!

I highly recommend buying one for your little one!

Ordered the Mini Ollie Octopus in mushroom and it was perfect. Wouldn’t hesitate to buy one.

Sharne went the extra mile for us delivering our Ollie to us in hospital in less than 24 hours. I can’t thank you enough the quality is beautiful and our little man loves it, already holding it in his hands and will help him learn to use his hands and gain strength again. Thanks so much for your incredible supportive service.

The beauty and softness of the Limited Edition Mini Ollie exceed all of my expectations!

I bought an Ollie the octopus for my little boy whilst I was pregnant. I wanted something sweet and different to be his comforter. We now take it everywhere with us. I will be buying a second as a back up and also will be purchasing one for my best friend who is pregnant !

Our Ollie arrived and is beautifully made and so soft. It was the comfort from the mother’s scent and the images of little fingers holding tentacles that won my heart. I can’t wait for my grandson to snuggle his Ollie.

My baby loves his ollie. The product is well made and good quality. Seems like it will last a while. We have been using it for feeding and sleeping. I am hoping that his ollie will provide him with the soothing he needs. Sharne has been wonderful to work with. We had a shipping delay and an email issue but she promptly rectified everything as soon as she found out and even upgraded us to express shipping on her behalf. She seems to really care about her products and her customers. Thank you Sharne and team !

Ollie is amazing! My daughter was not loving mat time she would cry until I would pick her up cue Ollie when we placed Ollie on her whilst laying on the mat she would happily lie there kicking her legs and looking around it instantly calmed her.

In love 😍 so beautifully made and soft. So nice to have a handmade item and to speak to a kind person with a great service. Only took a week and a bit to get to me in WA.

It is so perfect. Thank you for putting some much love into what you do.

So impressed with Ollie! He arrived just as we were heading home for the nicu- but has kept my baby settled as sleeps in the Moses basket and co sleeper. He even comes for rides in the pram. She enjoys touching his tentacles and rubbing her head/face on his face. Don’t give purchasing Ollie a second thought- it’ll be the best thing you buy today!

Thank you so much Sharne @ Darne Creations for our little Ollie. Its so comforting to know that Josiah has his little Ollie with him when we can't be with him. It's absolutely the perfect little companion. So soft, plush and made with so much love. We can't thank you enough xxx

I purchased Ollie while my little one was in the NICU. Although we only received it once we got back home I still love it so much. It’s super cute and my little one reaches for it even now. Thank you! 💚

Firstly, Sharne pours so much love into each and every order. Her messages alone got me through some pretty dark days in the NICU. We purchased 2 mini Ollie’s for our twins. Perfect quality and the softest touch touch! These are going to be used, loved and treasured for years to come. Highly recommend xx
