PatchO's Everyday Benefits (and a Few Lovely Bonuses)

Hey there, fellow parent!

If you’re anything like us, you’re always looking for small, meaningful ways to support your child through the ups, downs, and in-betweens of daily life. That’s exactly why we created PatchO Comfort Companions — gentle, natural aromatherapy patches designed to bring a little calm, connection, and comfort into your family’s world.

The Heart of PatchO: What Our Patches Are Made For

1. A Calm Companion for Big Feelings

Life is full of transitions — school drop-offs, bedtime, overstimulation, or just one of those days. PatchO patches offer a comforting presence, with gentle scents that help families feel grounded, calm, and steady when things feel a little too big.

2. A Routine That Builds Emotional Security

When your child chooses their PatchO Pal, they’re not just picking a cute sticker — they’re stepping into a familiar routine that helps them feel safe and in control. This gentle routine can anchor their day, giving them something to count on, especially during moments of transition or uncertainty.

3. Natural Aromatherapy for Emotional Balance

Each patch is infused with a natural blend of pure essential oils:

  • Red Mandarin – Cheerful like a bottle of sunshine
  • Lemongrass – Fresh and clarifying
  • Lavender – Calming like a snuggly hug
  • Roman Chamomile – Soft and soothing
  • Rose Geranium – Steady and emotionally balancing
  • Benzoin – Warm & reassuring.

Together, they create a gentle sense of balance  –  supporting calm, connection, and smoother moments throughout your family’s day.

And Then There Are the Lovely Little Bonuses...

We didn’t design PatchO for these reasons — but parents tell us they notice them anyway:

1. A Breath of Fresh Air (Literally)

These naturally scented patches help freshen the air around your child — whether it’s applied to a shirt collar, backpack, or soft toy. A subtle way to brighten shared spaces.

2. A Bit Less Insect Drama

Several oils in our blend — including Lavender, Rose Geranium and Lemongrass — are known for their gently repelling qualities in the natural world. While PatchO isn’t an insect repellent, families have found the scent handy during outdoor play or evening picnics.

3. A Sensory-Friendly Experience

The consistent scent, the tactile sticker routine, and the familiar PatchO Pals come together to create a sensory rhythm that many children find grounding. For kids who are sensitive to change or overwhelmed by too much sensory input, this gentle, repeatable experience can feel incredibly reassuring.
