Booked for Birthday party for kids

Absolutely incredible! We had the pleasure of booking the most amazing Joey Lee for my daughter’s 6th birthday party, and I honestly can’t recommend her enough. From the moment she arrived, she was so organised and professional, setting up quickly and smoothly, and creating the most magical experience for the kids. Her talent is out of this world – the detail, colours, and creativity in each design left both the kids and parents in awe. She worked so efficiently but never rushed, giving each child the time and attention they needed to feel special. I had to mention she was extremely organised also, allowing each guest to have a turn through her take a ticket on arrival method, there was no rush and everyone enjoyed. Absolutely genius idea! Not only is she incredibly skilled, but also warm, friendly, and brilliant with children – she had them all laughing and beaming with excitement. Even the shy ones felt comfortable sitting in her chair! Parents were just as impressed as the little ones, and several asked for her contact details. We will definitely be hiring her again for future parties. Thank you for making our daughter’s birthday extra magical! 🌈✨🎨

Booked for Birthday party for kids

David at MKP communicated well beforehand and during the event. He turned up early and set up swiftly. He totally owned a room of 20 x 5-6 year olds and involved everyone especially the birthday girls. A really fun act ideal for young kids.

Booked for Celebration

Noelia (Face painting by Yanthia) was amazing, arrived promptly and the quality of face painting was just out of this world. Everyone at the party commented on how good she was and they were still talking about it the next day. Although the details of the face painting was high quality, it didn’t slow her down which meant all children at the party managed to get their face done. I would definitely book again and highly recommend Noelia.

Booked for Private party

What a lovely lady Sarah is and so kind - her art work was superb ... both the kids and the adults loved her, so much so she had to extend her hours to ensure everyone who wanted to had a turn - thank you Sarah for helping to make my party an afternoon/evening to remember.
