Hi, I'm Charlotte, the Giggle Squad's Info Fairy

I've spent more than seven years painting faces and running parties for young children. Along the way I've painted at festivals including Fairgrounds, Spectrum Now and The Lost Picnic, at Make-A-Wish events, and through plenty of late nights in nightclubs.

That mix means I'm calm with a queue of excited four-year-olds and quick when the room is busy. Every party gets the same thing: bright designs, happy kids, and a host who keeps things on time.

This is a request, not a confirmed booking. We'll contact you to confirm a time and price.

Good to know

Why do online requests need 7 days' notice?

It gives us time to check the date, confirm with you, and prepare designs for your theme. If your party is sooner, call 0431 953 993 and we'll tell you straight away whether we can make it.

How do deposits and cancellations work?

A $50 deposit holds your date and comes off your total. Cancel or move your party with 14 days' notice and your deposit is refunded or moved for free. With 7 to 13 days' notice you can move it once for free. With less than 7 days' notice the deposit is kept. If we ever have to cancel, you get a full refund or a new date, your choice.

Which areas do you travel to?

Anywhere in greater Melbourne, from the CBD out to places like Dandenong, with travel included in the price. Further afield, such as Geelong or Bendigo, ask us and we'll quote travel when we confirm.

Are the paints safe for sensitive skin?

We use professional, cosmetic-grade face paints that wash off with soap and water. Let us know about any allergies or skin conditions in your request and we'll do a small patch test on the day.

Do you post photos of the kids?

Only with a parent's permission. Tick the photo box when you send your booking request, or let us know on the day. If you don't, nothing from your party goes online.

What do you need from us on the day?

A table and two chairs in a spot with good light, and shade if we're outdoors. We bring everything else.
