EXCELLENTTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kyle did our grinch experience on the 23rd and totally smashed it. We were all giggling and laughing even the older teens who wanted to pretend they weren’t enjoying it loved it too! My four year old hasn’t stopped taking about it to everyone we see. Highly recommend.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely amazing, the name says it all. The Grinch went above and beyond his role, this made my daughters Christmas. Would recommend 1000%. Thankyou 💗Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a visit from Santa to our house and he was fantastic. Took time to think how he could suit his visit to our sons and the children loved him. Very magical and set the tone for the last few days run up to Christmas.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We booked Barbie for my daughter’s 4th Birthday party. Lily-Mae was amazing! Fantastic communication in the lead up to the party and superb with the kids! My daughter said it was the ‘perfect Barbie party’ - thank you for making her dreams come true!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tom was really impressive, from the moment he made his Spider-Man entrance to the end of the party, he ensured the children remained engaged throughout. His dance moves and acrobats were a hit and the children genuinely believe a real life superhero had descended upon them. It was very easy to liaise with the company and they were happy to discuss arrangements with the venue to coordinate entertainment and games. Thank you!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were absolutely thrilled to have "Ariel" join us for my daughter's 4th birthday party, and she was nothing short of magical from start to finish! Communication was great beforehand and everything was very well organised throughout. From the moment she arrived, she had the attention of every single child. She was incredibly entertaining, friendly and had so many fun activities for the children. She made sure to interact individually with the birthday girl, which made her feel incredibly special, but she also spent quality time with all the other children too. The hour went by so quick. We would definitely recommend Ariel to anyone who is after that special birthday party, thank you so much!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had Kyle as Spider-Man for our son Ben’s 5th birthday and he was amazing. We were a bit worried about space as the party was at home, but it really wasn’t an issue at all. Kyle kept all the children totally engaged and entertained the whole time. Every child loved it and the birthday boy felt so special. He’s even been trying to do handstands since watching Spider-Man at his party! From a parent’s point of view, it was honestly better than we could have imagined. Everything ran so smoothly and it took all the stress out of hosting. We’d 100% recommend Kyle, he really made the day.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hayley (Elsa) hosted our daughter’s 5th birthday party and she was fantastic! It was planned perfectly and very organised. All the children were really engaged and having loads of fun 🤩Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We booked Rumi and Zoey from K-pop demon hunters for a joint 8th birthday. Everyone had such an amazing time (parents included). Our huntrix girls were super engaging and made sure all the guests had fun and took part in the party entertainment. We would definitely use the company again, thank you to our 2 entertainers who put in so much effort and made the 2 birthday girls feel special 🩷Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The easiest process ever! Absolutely amazing children’s party service for our corporate event - super professional, extremely reliable, and genuinely brilliant from start to finish.
