Purchase of baby doll ?

[Kicking Bear]

Hiya
I am due to do the baby massage instructors course with the FHT in October. Does anyone know of a doll I could purchase? They do sell them on the FHT website but they are £36.00. That is a reasonable price I think as they are quite robust but does anyone know of anywhere else cheaper?

Thanks

Hi Its ok I have found a site!

they have 4/5 types of dolls if anyone is interested, and a t shirt and also postcards and posters to promote your baby massage service. They have some great books and music CD's too and I think I saw oils too.
So I have answered my own post!
Hope this helps anyone else looking for dolls. I did see one for say on ebay but it was 2nd hand - looked in good condition but would rather get brand new - these are £36 also from touchneeds.

Things must have moved on since I did my CIMI course in 1997 - we just got one from a toy shop!

yes Trow, I know what you mean! But Touchneeds was in its infancy (s'cuse the pun everyone) then.

I got my main doll from Argos £9.99
My back-up doll I got from Oxfam with a note attached to it asking for a loving home.

What you are looking for is a doll with a soft (material) torso and plastic bendy arms and legs.

I've bought a few things from touchneeds, the postcards are lovely.
