It all started with trying to answer the question…
…what can our kids do in Korea during the summer that’s both meaningful and fun so that I can get some facials and laser treatments?
Welcome to Umma (mom) Nola (play)—your one-stop connection to Korea. We are Jihye and Jimin, co-founders of UmmaNola. It all started with the question, "What can our kids do in Korea during the summer that's both meaningful and fun so that I can get some facials and laser treatments?" We saw a need for a summer day camp in Korea that would allow our children to gain a deeper appreciation for their Korean heritage and started the UmmaNola K-camps last year in 2023. Since we started our journey last year, so many of you have asked us where to go for skincare, best place to stay with the family, best places for medical check-up, photo studios, and color matching services. We realized that planning a trip to Korea is incredibly meaningful yet it requires so much work. Naturally so, this year we are evolving to become your ultimate resource for all things Korea, starting with K-camps and then beyond (infinity). In short, we are no longer running our own K-camps, but we are creating partnerships with various types of camps for you and your children to choose from (plus fun discounts for UmmaNola followers).
As moms and entrepreneurs, we understand the importance of self-care, friendship, and alone time. We understand the constant struggle of wanting to make sure your family is taken care of while also taking time to relax and recharge. Whether you're looking to take a break, treat yourself to a little self-care, or find the best experience for your family, UmmaNola has got you covered. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about us.
We can't wait to help you nola (play) well.
Jihye & Jimin
