At CDS Boutique, we are dedicated to offering our customers a wide range of products that stimulate and support them every day, whatever their wishes and expectations. “For a better quality of life” is, in fact, our slogan! These words take on their full meaning as we search for suitable products for our various clienteles, with or without special needs, as well as for caregivers and professionals.

The exciting CDS Boutique adventure began in 1992, when Marie-France Dozois decided to put her creativity, her entrepreneurial spirit and her drive to improve the quality of life of seniors living in care homes to work.

Over the years, Marie-France built her skills and knowledge through hands-on experience and the many training programs she completed in Canada, Europe and the United States. She carved out her place in this niche market by developing partnerships with institutions. CDS quickly became the go-to resource in Canada for adapted products for seniors, whether independent or experiencing a loss of autonomy (Alzheimer's disease, people with cognitive disorders). Every day, we look for new products and innovations so we can offer people here the very best of what is available, at home and abroad.

Création CDS products (therapeutic doll, adapted clock, cognitive stimulation game, adapted signage, etc.) are one of a kind. They were developed to meet a pressing need expressed by families and care staff.

CDS: the resource for adapted products for seniors, whether independent or experiencing a loss of autonomy.

Growing interest from new clients in the school system and from child development professionals led us to expand our product offering. Today we meet the needs of children and teens, with educational games and toys; families, with our many intergenerational games and products; caregivers looking after a loved one or friend at the end of life; and of course professionals in care homes and institutions, in preschool, elementary and special education, rehabilitation centres, as well as the psychologists, occupational therapists and learning specialists with whom we have built rewarding partnerships for nearly 30 years!

EDIE training is one of our great finds. It comes directly from Dementia Australia. It is a unique, immersive experience using cutting-edge virtual reality technology. The training lets participants experience the reality of a person living with Alzheimer's disease. Its goal is to educate care professionals and raise their awareness of neurodegenerative diseases.

We are always looking for new products to meet the growing needs of our customers. We are proud to offer you new and original products and solutions, because our priority is to keep innovating and listening to you so we can provide real tools that work.

Warm regards,

MARIE-FRANCE DOZOIS
