Elah Kids was born out of love, struggle, and the unwavering belief that children are stronger than we often realize.
Our name carries a story. Elah, meaning Terebinth tree, is the name of co-founder Karlien van Jaarsveld’s daughter — a little girl whose journey captured the hearts of South Africans. Born prematurely, she faced major surgeries and life-threatening challenges as an infant. Against all odds, she overcame them. Today, she stands as a symbol of courage, healing, and resilience.
Inspired by her story, we created Elah Kids™: a skincare and haircare brand that gives children what every parent wishes for them — comfort, protection, and the strength to grow with confidence.
Our dermatologist-developed Resilience System™ is designed to protect by day, restore by night, and nurture from root to tip. Using science-backed ingredients like probiotics, ceramides, antioxidants, and gentle hydrators, every formula is crafted with one mission: to build resilience in delicate skin and hair, so kids can focus on what they do best — being kids.
Elah Kids is more than skincare. It’s a celebration of resilience.
Together, as friends, parents, and co-founders, we are proud to bring Elah Kids to families everywhere — a brand inspired by one child’s journey, created for every child’s tomorrow.
