Booked for Corporate Function

Miss.Balloonatron was Excellent! I cannot recommend enough. The kids absolutely adored her, she was early to the venue so she could get kitted out in her fabulous balloon costume and instantly got to work. She was non-stop with a smile for the whole 2 hours she was at our event and the kids continued to flow. We had great feedback from parents saying their kids were overjoyed with their creations. She was a pleasure to work with and we will definitely be looking to hire her again for an event in the future!

We booked Dave for my daughter’s 3rd birthday party and he was really fantastic. He made some amazing balloon creations including a fantastic octopus and dinosaur plus a beautiful balloon bouquet of flowers. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to others or book him again.
