About us

IT STARTED WITH GRANDMA.
(And a happy accident).

 

Cuddlio didn’t start with a grand vision. It started because I didn't know how else to help my grandmother.

 

She has struggled with severe sleep disorders for a long time. I did what most people would do: I tried to find a medical fix. I bought her quality supplements, vitamins, and whatever else I thought might help. But nothing seemed to make a real difference.

 

To be honest, I didn't buy the first Nana plush thinking it would "fix" her sleep. I just bought it as a gift to cheer her up. I thought it was cute and might look nice on her bed.

 

But then, I noticed something surprising. She didn't just leave it on the shelf. She actually started sleeping with it.

 

She told me that holding onto it at night made her feel settled. It wasn't a magic cure, and it didn't make her sleep disorder vanish. But it gave her comfort. It gave her something to hug when she felt restless.

 

It taught me a simple truth: Whether you are 80 or 20, we are all just looking for something safe to hold.

 

BUT COMFORT IS ONLY HALF THE STORY

 

Because our journey began with a personal struggle, we know that while a plushie can soothe the mind, it cannot cure complex sleep conditions. We are committed to fighting this battle on a larger scale to bridge that gap: Providing the comfort you need tonight, while funding the cures you might need tomorrow.

 

We independently donate 10% of our annual net profits to a nonprofit organization working in the sleep health field. Your purchase directly helps fund:

 

🔬 Research: Advancing treatments for sleep disorders.

🩺 Support: Providing assistance to sleep apnea patients (including CPAP equipment).

⚕️Education: Training the next generation of sleep medicine professionals.

📢 Awareness: Conducting campaigns to raise awareness about sleep health.

 

When you bring Nana home, you aren't just buying a plush. You are helping the world rest a little easier.
