Gosport's first 'pamper shop' is set to open offering luxury spa experiences for children
Gosport’s first ‘pamper shop’ opens this weekend, offering experience spa treatments and luxurious treats for children’s parties.
Pretty Little Princess - opening in Brockhurst Road, Gosport on Saturday, April 1 – will be run by sisters Maddie Pinder and Corrina Collins who decided to start a business after each taking a break from the workplace to raise their respective children.

Maddie, 33, said: ‘We will offer pamper parties for ages three to 12 which includes making your own face mask, hair and nails, foot spas, a boho style mini high tea, mocktails and glitter tattoos.
‘We took our daughters to a different pamper shop and afterwards I thought "Gosport could do with something like that.”
‘We’re always together anyway so I thought we could work together well. My sister’s husband said he would fund it all and we thought we would just go for it.’
Corrina said: ‘I’m excited and a bit nervous but I’m sure everything will go well. We’ve both got young families and we decided this was the best way to go about it. It’s something we feel that our kids would enjoy and we can work around our children.’
Corrina added that she hopes the shop can employ people as the business grows.
‘After the first few months we could probably do with a couple of employees so hopefully we can offer someone a job which would be nice - especially if we could get someone who was in the same position as us.’
