A simple, human moment can sometimes spark the biggest projects. One pediatric dentist, a frequent visitor to Centara, noticed how quickly her own children settled when immersed in our play zones. She told us she loved the products and thought it would be perfect for Dr. Joy Clinics.
What began as a family outing turned into a professional revelation. Dr. Joy came to us with a request based on her own experience: "Please, can we have these in our clinics?" Her leadership team agreed on the answer, with a goal to apply to all Dr. Joy clinics around the UAE.
What was once a waiting room is now a calm, child-considered world. Gentle fencing, low play walls, children’s seating, and softly lit game panels help carve out a safe zone — visible to parents and immersive to kids — making them feel not only transported to their own place, but gently included in our big world. It’s the smallest details that show children this space was made with them in mind.
Our interactive screens are nothing like typical tablets. The games are intentionally designed to support developing attention spans — steady animations, nature themes, and soft audio cues that stimulate curiosity without overload.
Physical play units, wall games, and tactile panels are built with all ages in mind — from toddlers to tweens. There’s no need to adjust or explain. The space simply works, quietly including everyone.
What once felt frightening now feels inviting. Children arrive curious, calm, and sometimes even excited. The visit becomes less of a chore and more of a small adventure.
Peace of mind replaces stress. With their children safely engaged, parents can focus fully on conversations with providers without the background worry.
The clinic stands apart. Patient satisfaction rises, anxiety-related cancellations fall, and the practice earns recognition for care that extends beyond treatment. Easy to clean and durable, the play systems also reduce maintenance demands, keeping daily operations running smoothly.
Calmer children mean smoother days. Procedures flow more easily, cooperation improves, and the atmosphere in the clinic lightens for everyone.
Each space is shaped by its setting. In hospitality, play brings energy and connection. In healthcare, it calms and reassures. The systems balance clinical needs with fun, fitting seamlessly into professional environments while keeping children engaged and parents at ease.
A new way to design pediatric healthcare that meets the emotional needs of young patients while keeping the highest standards of medical professionalism.
