Wellcome to the Gledita babywearing demo doll order page!

If you have not met the Gledita demo dolls yet, I suggest you first read the Basic informations about dolls!

The Gledita babywearing demo dolls are wonderful custom helpers for babywearing educators, kanga trainers, baby caring educators. Demo dolls can be used to show, try out baby carriers in shops, exhibitions. 

The dolls are comfortable, not hard like plastic dolls, the limbs are bent where they should be and are movable to the correct locations, directions.

Every Gledita doll is made for custom order. Sometimes I make Ready-To-Go dolls (dolls who want a new Mommy), they can be found in the Ready-To-Go Gledita Dolls Page. Check it out!


I made a video about Vince, the 100th demo doll. It shows the shape and moving of the Gledita demo doll:


56 cm tall doll with bent limbs in natural colour and 62 cm tall doll with straight limbs in mediterran colour.

I make babywearing demo dolls in three sizes:

  • 54-56 cm tall (2,5-3 kg) with bent limbs
  • 62 cm (3,5-4,2 kg) with staight limbs
  • and sometimes 50 cm (1,5-1,8 kg)  with bent limbs.

I weighted them with three material: millet, millet mixed quartz-sand or plastic granule. The remaining places I fill with siliconised polyester fiber and some places wool. About materials, structure, etc.. more information here…

The elbows and the knees are very moving, the straight limb can be folded. We can not straighten the bent limbs! This would damage the body material. If you need a 54-56 cm tall doll to stretch its limbs, choose the baby massage demo doll with straight limbs!

I don’t make bigger doll like 4,5 kg, because they are made out of textile, and the bigger weight is too much for the body fabric.


You can order your demo doll with turnable head. It is optional. I make it with a metal structure, what provides a strong hold for the baby, while the head can be turned in the right direction.
One of my French customer inspired to develope the “turnable head system”. 
It was developed at July 2018.


You can order your doll with a new option: Turn-and-tilt head. It is optional. It was developed in 2021:

The video shows a breastfeeding demo doll, but the turn-and-tilt head movement is clearly visible.


What you need to know about ordering:

All three sizes and every filling have a price that includes a simple doll without additional design elements (extras). 
Simple doll: bald head, without hair, no detailed fingers and toes, without round bottom, no boy part and no ears, natural (light) colour skin.

The simple doll knows everything even without accessories, and it is fully capable of working with its “Mommy”. The doll’s head is made with waldorf doll technique. The doll’s face is sculpted with a needle-felting technique and was hand emroidered.

If you want, you can order extras, design elements for your demo doll:

The “extras”: detailed fingers and toes, hair, round bottom, ears, boy part. If you want a chocolate-colored or mediterran-colored doll, they come with additional charge.

  • You can choose bald head, mohair hair or synthetic hair. If you want hair for doll, you can choose from the following materials and colours. 
  • In the top row there are hairs from special wool-mohair yarn. I can make short hair from mohair yarn too when I cut the fibers
  • In the bottom row there are hairs from synthetic effect yarn. It’s just for short hair.
  • I crochet the cap and brush it.

The ordered doll is ready to go within 4-6 weeks on average. This time depends on the number of actual orders. Therefore, if the doll is urgent, please email me before ordering (info @ gleditadolls .  com)

I ship Gledita demo dolls without clothes. All the right size baby clothes fit them.


Do you have to bring your demodoll to your work? Order a beautiful silver-gray, waterproof pearl canvas bag with Gledita logo! It fits for a 62 cm tall or smaller dolls too. The bag will protect your fabric doll in the rain.

Dimensions: 50 cm x 17 cm x 17 cm.

The logo is screen-printed on a white pearl canvas, so the bag can be washed at 30 degrees.

I make the bags with a variety of straps, light gray or bordeaux. After ordering we can match the color of the strap in stock. If you would like, I’ll send it with your doll. If I do not have the color you want, you may have to wait a couple of days!


I ship the big, heavy demo dolls only to Europe, because the shipping cost is very high from Hungary to United States.

I only ship packages below 2 kg to the US. For example little, 50 cm (20″) tall weighted dolls, Gledita Mama or light toy dolls.
