Nailed It! Spas for Kids for Birthdays & Every Day

With so many spas and nail salons in NYC, it’s no wonder we’ve got nail salons and spas just for kids in town. (As well as grownup salons that will cater to your mini-me.) Perfect for a mommy & me outing just because, or a fabulous spa birthday party, these businesses are very serious about pampering to the max. Some are explosions of pink, others are more subdued and sophisticated—all will leave everyone feeling fab. Here are our top picks for the best kids spas in NYC!

For Mobile Manis & Pedis

Pink Princess Nails

Pink Princess Nails will bring the spa to you in the form of these chic teepees. A six-hour rental for eight kids is $450, and is available anywhere in the Bronx, Manhattan, and Westchester County/White Plains, New York. Pink Princess Nails also has a Mobile Spa Party option for the same rate, if you prefer a non-teepee option.
