Princess for a Day is an amazing free personalised pampering service for ladies going through physical, emotional, mental and/or financial hardship. If this sounds like you, we would love to treat you like a ‘Princess for a Day’ with a royal pampering treatment. We provide a variety of beauty and relaxation therapies including hand and nail treatments, facials, massages, professional haircuts and make up.
A clothing rack with donated new and preloved clothes, a table of accessories and a box of shoes are all available for the women to update their wardrobe. A delicious morning tea is provided during a presentation on building life skills – all for a Gold Coin Donation.
Our team of faithful volunteers provide respect, care, empathy and a listening ear with every service, leaving our ‘Princesses’ feeling relaxed with a smile on their face.
One of the agencies that book in clients for Princess for a Day provided feedback from one of their clients after attending a session:
“The client said she felt loved and cared for. She said that the staff were upliftig, making her feel very comfortable and beautiful. Thanks for providing this opportunity for our clients.”
