Hazel was INCREDIBLE!! She was kind, friendly, brilliant with communications and created some beautiful designs. Thank you so much ❤️

Erisa Karafili1 Jun 2025

Sarah was fantastic. The kids loved her art and had so much fun. Sarah was super professional and knows how to work with little children very well. Very happy with her service, and I will book her also for other parties.

Amanda Pook1 Dec 2024

Dani was brilliant, worked so hard the whole time, and the kids were so patient waiting for their turn because they loved what their friends had painted, she was great and so lovely. Thank you

Rebecca Thompson1 Oct 2023

Excellent experience, she just got on with doing as many faces as possible. All the faces looked amazing. Wonderful manner with the children!

Georgie15 May 2023

All the kids and adults alike enjoyed the face painting and magic show. The balloon animals were really good and all the children liked them and nothing seemed to be to much. Will is a Gem and highly recommended.

Simellia Taylor23 Feb 2020

Dean is absolutely brilliant. All the children and the adults were laughing. Our little boy is normally very shy but with Dean he loved every second of being involved. Couldn’t recommend Dean enough

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.
