The Magic Coat App reducing children’s anxiety features on The Today Show.

If you missed the story on Channel 9 last night about how The Magic Coat is being trialled at Perth Children’s Hospital it was also featured today, on the today show! This research on the app would not be possible if it was not for the generosity of Perth Children’s Hospital Foundation to whom we are incredibly grateful.

A big thank you to Tanya Farrell and Britta Regli-Von Ungern for all their hard work and efforts with researching the program in the hospital but most of all for their belief that The Magic Coat can make a difference to children’s mental health and well-being.

Of course, this app would not be possible without the incredible talents of Rick Hurlbatt and Sarah Hurlbatt of Viper Metrics that worked tirelessly to put this app together for no other reason than to make a difference to children going into hospital. There are earth angels that exist in our world and The Magic Coat is so grateful for those that walk alongside us.

Andrea Pace and your beautiful boy Mitch, thank you for being so willing to share your story and we are so happy The Magic Coat helped Mitch overcome his fears and we love that he continues to use his Magic Coat everyday.
