• Life-like neck movements and real infant sound.
• Needs feeding, burping, rocking, or changing.
• Customisable with 15 different schedules (easy | medium | difficult | random).
• 6 hours of charge will give 7 days of operation – just like your real baby – always on the go!
The Real Care Baby Programme is a course designed to enable empathy in students and teach them the reality of having a baby. It has been a great success across the UK and makes practical use of the RealCare Babies as a bespoke teaching tool that brings learning alive.
In an age where technology and Artificial Intelligence are well and truly in demand, this teaching method welcomes the change from the textbook-only approach.
