Mary Jenner
Owner and Founder of The Butterfly Pig
My name is Mary Jenner, I am a nurse and the founder of The Butterfly Pig. We are revolutionizing pediatric healthcare through educational, interactive, and realistic medical toys. Research shows that children learn best through "doing," yet current pediatric patient education relies heavily on verbal explanation and handouts. Our interactive toys allow children to engage and learn about their medical experiences through play. This approach not only aligns with how children learn best but also significantly reduces medical anxiety and boosts patient cooperation. Trauma should not be the norm for children with medical needs. We CAN change healthcare to be more child-friendly, and we are doing that - one toy at a time.
All of our toys are expertly designed by an in-house engineer in collaboration with myself. So they are realistic enough to teach, but fun enough for play. We also manufacture them ourselves with 3D printing technology, so the possibilities are truly endless for what we can make. Our toys undergo safety testing, complying with all CPSC and ASTM standards. AND we offer a money back guarantee! Being in over 80 hospitals worldwide, and counting, we know that these products will bring a smile to your child and help reduce their medical fears and anxiety.
