Susan Kaufman24 Jun 2024

Booked for Other Event

Everything was super easy to organise. Great communication with Jo. She brought everything she needed and provided me with a risk assessment and public liability insurance prior to the event. Jo was great with the kids and very easy to chat to. She was a great asset to our fete. She was very professional and diligent in checking for allergies and minimum ages as well as parents/guardians remaining present.

Booked for Birthday party for kids

I cannot thank Lyla enough for bringing all the sparkle and joy to my little girls birthday. She made every child feel special and would go out of her way to face paint everything from Minnie Mouse, Batman, butterflies and Minecraft logos! She’s amazing and I wouldn’t hesitate booking her again. 10 out of 10 x

Booked for Birthday party for kids

Sam was an absolute professional from start to finish. Her artistic flair and variety of face painting was top quality. She related extremely well to all the children and they were thoroughly delighted with their chosen designs. Sam worked creatively for two solid hours and many children had a face and arm painting. Excellent communication prior to the event. Highly, highly recommended.
