Yes. We travel throughout Sydney, although a travel fee may apply for bookings outside the Inner West.

Get in touch! We regularly tailor our services for corporate events, schools, festivals, fundraisers and other special events.

For a small, private party - Not much!

We'll bring everything we need, including our paints, glitter, face gems, balloons and equipment. You just need to provide a shaded, weather-protected area, parking nearby and it would be appreciated if you could supply a small table and 2 adult size chairs (although we can bring them if needed).

UV services require access to a power point.

Corporate and large events - please get in touch to discuss so that we can provide the best experience for your guests and keep busy lines moving fast

Absolutely!

We aim to make face painting and balloon twisting a fun and comfortable experience for every child; and our business owner Jessica is an occupational therapist by background. We are happy to take things at the child's pace, offer simple designs, and make adjustments where needed. If your child has specific needs or sensitivities you'd like us to be aware of, please let us know when booking so we can make the experience as comfortable as possible.

Yes. Born to Glitter holds $30 million public liability insurance appropriate for our event services and working with children's check. A Certificate of Currency, WWC and MSDS (product information) can be provided on request. Where additional artists are engaged, we ensure the appropriate insurance and engagement arrangements are in place.
