In this episode of The 10 in 10, we sit down with Karla Vandenberg, the visionary founder of Monkey Dooz®, the original children’s salon and spa transforming the kid-care industry through confidence-building, sensory-friendly design, and joyful jungle-themed experiences.

A serial entrepreneur with decades of experience spanning real estate, events, branding, and product innovation, Karla scaled Monkey Dooz from a single idea into a multi-state expansion brand—complete with trademarked locations, a private-label product line, and a rapidly growing licensing model. Her journey, shaped by resilience, reinvention, and navigating the long path to U.S. citizenship, has become the backbone of a brand built on purpose and perseverance.

Now back in Arizona—where her U.S. story first began—Karla is leading the next chapter of Monkey Dooz with a bold vision: creating America’s first fully disability-approved children’s salon, setting a new standard for inclusion in the industry.
