“I work professionally in the entertainment industry and therefore have very high standards of everything. We booked "Anna and Elsa" for my daughters party and I was astonished by the level of talent the girl produced. They had amazing singing voices and characterisation and kept all 35 boys and girls entertained for all of the 2 hours! ”

“We booked 'Just Karen' for a morning of celebrations for the children at our day nursery in Leicester and she did not disappoint! We had a wonderful morning where children took part in lots of bubble play, with the grand finale of being inside a giant bubble! It was so much fun, not only for the children, but the adults too, who were also very keen in having a go themselves. The children were engaged throughout the 1hr 30 session and Karen was very patient and accommodating with the mixed age groups we had (1 - 4 years old). It was such a pleasure to be a part of it and watch the sheer joy on the children's faces. We definitely would (and will!) recommend to others. ”

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about hiring a childrens entertainer.

The cost of a children's entertainer can vary depending on the location, type of entertainment, and duration of the event. On average, you can expect to pay between £100 and £300 for a 1-2 hour performance.


However, prices can range from as low as £50 for a basic package to as high as £500 or more for a premium package or a well-known performer. It's always best to get a quote directly from the entertainer or entertainment company you are interested in, as prices can vary widely based on their specific services and experience.

  • Make sure the entertainer's performance is appropriate for the age range of the children attending your event.
  • Consider the type of entertainment you want for your event. Do you want a magician, a clown, a face painter, a balloon twister, or a combination of different activities?
  • Check the entertainer's experience and reviews from previous clients
  • Ensure that the entertainer has taken appropriate safety precautions and is DBS (CRB) verified
