Hi

I just wanted to say thank you to "Jelly the Clown" who came to Shivani's party on 12 August. She did a wonderful job with all the 3 -4 year olds and we enjoyed it thoroughly.

Thanks once again for making Shivani's party very special.

- Regards

Hi Maria & friends at Bilby

Just a note to thank you for organising the entertainers for Sarah's party on Sunday. Tim and Regan were great, playing with the kids with unflagging enthusiasm despite the heat (in that sweaty astronaut suit especially!) Sarah's little boy, Rory, didnt want a bedtime story on Sunday night, just to chat with his Mum about AstroTim and Fairy Regan. So - a huge success, thank you, and please pass on sincere thanks to both entertainers.

- Best wishes

Hi

Can you please pass on our thanks to Tim for the excellent job he did today at Liam and Bryns' Birthday party. All the boys really enjoyed it, and we just wanted to let Tim know how much they enjoyed it, and also thank him for doing such a fantastic job on such an extraordinarily hot day.

To the Staff at Bilby Productions:

My wife Reggina and I would like to thank Bilby Productions for the performance from Astronaut "Jessie" (from Mars), at our son's Baptism party on 6 November 2011.

The children were engaged and captivated immediately when she disembarked from her space craft and into the restaurant.

Jessie was able to maintain a high level of interest from her audience of 25+ children from a broad age range for two hours!

Parents from numerous tables commented how they appreciated the [rare] quietness from the departure of their
children into deep space [or even a parallel universe?].

Jessie should be commended for her professionalism and ability to operate an audience in zero gravity !!!

Well Done Astronaut Jessie! We could not have done it without you.

- Our Best Wishes to You and the Team,

Hi Maria,

Brigitta was punctual, well presented and had a very pleasant personality.

- Thank you for recommending her for the job.

Thank you so much for helping us have a great party on 5 December (Killara with Meg the Elf).

You might remember we had a group of 14 children ranging from 2 years to 10 years and quite a lot of them with cerebral palsy. It was a tough ask of any entertainer and Meg did a fantastic job.

As a group of parents who are normally hands on with our kids the majority of the time it was fabulous to have Meg there to entertain the kids. The adults actually all sat down together to lunch and finished before any children were looking for us. We even managed lunchtime conversation! We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and could see that the kids were having a ball.

Meg went to great lengths to make sure she understood the non-verbal children and was a natural at getting an answer from them. Meg spent lots of time with all the children and did a great job of spanning the wide range of ages. Her memory for names is enviable.

We had a great experience with Bilby from the minute we phoned. Your desire to 'get it right' with the challenging group of kids was really heartwarming.

- Thank you from kids and adults alike.

Everyone sang your praises and rightly so for Peter Pan's presence at the celebrations of my birthday Sunday. Certainly Peter was a star. Thank you for doing everything so well.

Thank you for entertaining at our party last Saturday. We had a wonderful Teddy Bear's Picnic at Blackburn Gardens. Our beautiful bear puppets are already precious favourites. Thanks for our special membership certificates and for staying on to sing Happy Birthday, beyond your time. We've told Mum we want Maria at all our parties, at least until we're ten. With love, your friends and fans.

Wanted to say a big thank you to Alisa - she was a terrific ladybird and the kids had a great time! Maria especially loved the bug dancing. We were amazed at Alisa's ability to keep a big group of kids entertained for an hour and a half, and she executed the bug hunt beautifully, including accommodating one party guest who was in a wheelchair. We really appreciate all of her hard work, and thank you Suzanne for organizing!

- Best,

Dear Suzanne,

I just wanted to send you a very belated (apologies for my tardiness!) 'Thank you!' for Lexie the pirate and Alisa the mermaid for Andrew (4y.o) and Kate's (1 y.o) birthday party on October 1st. All the children absolutely loved the performers who entranced and occupied the children so well all the parents got a very good feed! They also did a fantastic job of making Andrew feel so special whilst still involving all the children in their games! All the children were still talking about the mermaid and pirate two weeks later! Also, Alisa is an artist with her face painting, I've never seen work that is so detailed and accurate, the children loved it (as did the parents to have photos of such beautiful images) Please pass on my sincere thanks to Lexie and Alisa for making Andrew and Kate's party truly memorable and stress-free!

- Kind regards

John was “The best damn Santa I’ve ever seen”

Dear Maria

Just wanted to let you know, Ella had a great party today. Alisa was fabulous, her face painting was gorgeous and she kept the kids
captivated with the games (and the little twists she threw in) and the stories. So I hope you can pass these Thanks onto Alisa.

- Thanks again

Our party last Saturday was a great success with Pirate Timbo and the children had a fantastic time.

Tim was really professional with me and great with the children - and hats off to him for keeping up appearances in his costume in the heat!

We hope to book him again soon.

I just wanted to thank you - Tim for a fantastic job he did on the day of Max's party. He was fantastic and performed beyond the call of duty. If we require any character again for future parties I will be calling Bilby. I will also recommend them to all my friends.

Please pass this message onto Tim and again thank you all!!!

- Regards

Hi Maria,

Just wanted to let you know that "Milly the Mermaid" went down a treat at Petrea's birthday.... It was definitely a challenge with the weather, space and number of children, but she did a fabulous job !

- Thanks again for helping me at such short notice.

Hi Maria

Roslyn " Fifi" was our fairy last weekend at Maddisons party.

I just wanted to let you know that she did a wonderful job. She was reallly good with the children, had heaps of activities and games and was lots of fun.

Please let her know that we thought she was great.

- Many thanks

I just wanted to let you know that we were thrilled with the visit from Bilby's Kate as Cinderella. We were celebrating our daughter Freya's fourth birthday with a Princess and Prince Party. I knew I would have my hands full with Freya's eight-week-old baby sister, so I decided to hire a performer and picked Bilby out of the advertisements in "Sydney's Child". I didn't know anyone who had used your performers so it felt a bit risky and I wasn't convinced that it would be worth the money. I need not have worried -- it turned out to be worth every cent. Kate was an utterly enchanting Cinderella and kept 15 children enthralled with her games, songs, magic tricks, face painting and balloon animals. Her gentle approach drew in even the shyest of our guests, and she handled the more boisterous ones with grace. She ensured that no child was left out, and made the birthday girl feel extra special. My delight in Kate's performance was shared by the other parents at the party -- I've had so many comments about how fantastic she was. I'd certainly recommend Kate and Bilby to anyone hosting a children's party. Please pass on our praise and thanks to Kate.
