Meet your Charlotte Kidcreate family

After over a decade in corporate retail, Brittanni chose to pursue her long-standing dream of entrepreneurship. Seeking a business that would enable her to express her creative passion while maintaining flexibility for her family, Brittanni recalled the wonderful experience she and her family had at a Kidcreate Studio years prior and decided to explore franchising with the brand. With the support of her husband, Brittanni and her children are excited to get messy with local families in a space dedicated to creative exploration, learning, and fun!!

Brittanni welcomes you and your children to visit the studio, put on an apron and create. After all, making a mess is the best at Kidcreate!
