Booked for Birthday party for kids

Sarah made my daughter’s 3rd birthday party so special. Every child had their face painted in a different, highly artistic way and Sarah was able to accommodate all their requests- even adding glitter tattoos after they’d had their faces painted. This was the highlight of our party and I would recommend Sarah’s services to anyone who wants to add joy and magic to their party.
