“The inspiration for Sundae Spa came from a family vacation,” said founder and owner, Kim Swan. “I love doing things with my children and getting them involved. We booked a spa experience for the kids that promised fun and sweet treats. Sadly, the experience was less than yummy but it left us with a taste to use our own creative ideas and start Sundae Spa.”
Founded in 2010 by mother-of-seven Kim Swan, Sundae Spa utilizes Swan’s background as a former high school teacher, education product developer and Girl Scout leader to combine everything that keeps children both educated and entertained. Sundae Spa is a place where kids can come to make sweet treats, while learning, looking good and having fun.

About Sundae Spa:
The Inspiration for Sundae Spa came from a family vacation. For something different, I booked a spa experience for the kids that promised fun and sweet treats for your hands and feet. (I love doing things with my children and getting them involved). On our 3 hour drive we imagined all kinds of wonderful things we would do together at the spa. Sadly the experience was less than yummy but it did leave us with a taste to use our own creative ideas and start Sundae Spa.
And Then... Immediately upon returning I threw myself into research – similar products, other spas for children, complimentary businesses that offered experiential learning – no one was doing what we had envisioned though all the businesses were thriving. Sundae Spa brings the best of them together in "a place where kids can come to make sweet treats while learning, looking good and having fun." With years of experience as a science teacher and having worked with all kinds of children I was sure our ideas would be a hit.
