Parents all across Louisville are looking for fun, safe, and memorable activities to enjoy with their children. One of the most popular experiences in recent years has been booking a mini spa day. At La Perla Nails and Spa, we have created a welcoming environment where children of all ages can enjoy relaxing nail services that are gentle, age appropriate, and designed just for them.


Whether it is a birthday surprise, a reward for good behavior, or simply an afternoon outing, mini spa days at La Perla offer something special for both kids and parents. Here is why families throughout The Highlands, Crescent Hill, and surrounding Louisville neighborhoods continue to choose La Perla for their child’s first, second, and even tenth spa day.



A Special Experience Designed for Kids


Children love experiences that feel grown up while still being fun and comfortable. Our mini spa services are specifically designed with kids in mind. From smaller seating setups to gentle products and friendly technicians, everything we do is tailored to help kids feel relaxed and excited to be here.


What makes the experience unique:

  • Services are shorter and simpler to match a child’s attention span

  • Nail shaping is done gently and safely

  • Polishes used for kids are non toxic and easy to remove

  • Technicians explain each step in a child friendly way

  • The environment is calm, clean, and never overwhelming


Kids leave smiling, feeling pampered, and proud of their freshly polished nails.



A Safe and Gentle Approach Parents Appreciate


Parents trust La Perla because we prioritize safety and comfort. We know a child’s nails are still developing and require extra care. The products we use for kids are selected to avoid unnecessary chemicals, strong odors, and harsh ingredients.


Our child service standards include:

  • Non toxic, quick drying polishes

  • Gentle filing and shaping techniques

  • No aggressive cuticle trimming

  • Clean, sanitized tools for every client

  • Soft scrubs that are safe for young skin


Because of these precautions, many parents choose La Perla for their child’s first ever spa experience.



Perfect for Kids of All Ages


Children as young as three and up through early teens enjoy different styles of spa visits. Our technicians adjust their approach based on age, personality, and comfort level.


Examples of what different age groups enjoy:

  • Younger kids love bright polishes, glitter, and simple designs

  • Tweens enjoy soft colors, flowers, and minimalist nail art

  • Teens often request trendy shapes or designs they see online


We make sure each child receives a service suited to their age and preference, creating a positive and memorable experience.
