Our Giggle Doctors
Meet them all!
Our Giggle Doctors are specialist entertainers, highly trained to work in the hospital environment. They come from a wide range of backgrounds and bring with them a variety of skills (among our team are professional clowns and magicians.). The training consists of a rigorous schedule of artistic and medical workshops that cover topics such as child development, infection control, child bereavement, and the impact of illness and bereavement on families. They learn the fundamentals of communication, exploring the elements that come into play: position, movement, mirroring, touching in response, repetition, eye contact and most of all having fun and providing play opportunities.
