The First Best Friend: Why Choose a Doudou for Your Baby?
A doudou (also known as dou dou or nanita) is much more than just a stuffed toy; it is an essential transitional object that provides security, comfort, and confidence to little ones. This classic attachment doll is designed for babies to chew on, hug, and keep close during sleep, helping them manage separation anxiety and fall asleep independently.
Sensory Stimulation with Your Picasita Dudú
Our dudu collection has been created with the tactile development of newborns in mind. Each piece measures 30.0 cm tall, the perfect size for their little hands to grasp easily. Using a nanita with different textures stimulates the sense of touch, the most developed at birth.
-
Extreme Softness: Made from high-quality materials such as velvet and muslin, ideal for caressing the delicate skin of a newborn seeking their dudú to calm down.
-
Stimulating Textures: The dou dou incorporates fabrics like sherpa and honeycomb to encourage sensory exploration from the first days.
-
Teething Knots: The corners of the doudou end in knots designed for the baby to safely chew on, relieving teething discomfort.
Available Variants: Choose Their Ideal Nanita
You can choose between two adorable dudu models, each with a unique personality and distinct textures:

Expert Tip: To make the attachment bond with the dudú instant, we recommend parents sleep with the product for a couple of nights before giving it to the baby so it absorbs their familiar scent. Discover this and other accessories in our store to create the perfect environment for your little one.
