“I booked Elsa the day before her visit for my niece Safa who is currently in hospital after been diagnosed with cancer. She had a beautiful day and Elsa was so amazing she made her day! To see Safa so happy brought tears to our eyes and we cannot thank you enough and would recommend you to anyone and everyone! Elsa was really involved with Safa and many other children at the hospital. The smile on Safa's face was so huge and beautiful thanks to Elsa. This visit is one that neither Safa or anyone else will forget and we all wholeheartedly thank Elsa and Sarah who organised it literally on the Friday for the next day Saturday. The communication with the staff is wonderful and I won't hesitate to contact them again if I want to have entertainment at a party! I wish them the best of luck on the growth of their business as you are all doing a great job and really deserve the recognition!!! Aliya xx”

“Sharon did the most amazing face paint for my daughters 10th birthday. The brief was to be cool, match the party theme (leopard) and glow under the UV lights at a roller disco and boy did she nail it. 20 very happy kids and such beautiful intricate, detailed artistry. I would highly recommend!”

“Deborah did some face painting at my daughters 4th birthday party and the children all really enjoyed it. Deborah got to the venue before I did and was all set up and helped us set up for the party also. She also emailed to me after the party some of the pictures she took of the children with their face painted (my daughter and my son) which was really appreciated..”
