On the day of my daughter's birthday, just 40 minutes before the party, she had an accident and needed to go to the hospital for stitches. Even in the middle of all the pre-party chaos, Sara kindly took my call and offered me great options. Since she had another event scheduled right after ours, we decided to keep the original plan. We had about 15 kids at the party, and Sara made sure every single one of them felt included and had fun, from face painting, to the parachute games, to the balloon creations. The kids had an AMAZING time, and every parent there complimented her work. I 100% recommend Sara, and without a doubt, I'll be booking her again for our next party!

The entire process was smooth, professional, creative, and stress-free. Their team brought such positive energy and a true "we'll make it happen" attitude that made working with them such a pleasure.

Beyond the décor itself, the team was kind, easy to communicate with, flexible, and genuinely cared about making the event special. We received so many compliments from our guests throughout the night. Highly recommend them for any event -- we would absolutely work with them again!

The only "complaint" I have is that my daughter now wants a birthday party every weekend They truly created a memory for her that I'm sure will stay with her for a lifetime in the most positive way. It seems my daughter is now known at school for throwing awesome parties! I will definitely hire them again and highly recommend them for any kids' event. I was honestly anxious about entertaining a group of children in my cozy home, but they took a huge burden off my shoulders and made the entire experience stress-free.

Thank you Curious George (Roxy) for making my son's dream come true! Roxy arrived so punctually…read more(early actually to prepare), and she was the life of the party! The kids loved playing limbo, basketball, Velcro darts, parachute, tunnel, and more with Curious George! My only regret was not hiring her for more time to keep the party going! We hired her for 1.5 hours and the kids were entertained and engaged the whole time, giving the parents time to socialize and eat lunch. My son had the absolute time of his life. The delight on his face when Curious George came to his party and gave him hugs and held his hand to lead a parade of his friends! The cake cutting with Curious George was so much fun, and afterwards Curious George read one of our Curious George books to the party guests. Definitely going to hire Roxy for every party as long as my kids like characters. It is genuinely magical for the kids to have their favorite character hang out with them.

She has an incredible ability to instantly connect with children and keep them fully engaged. The energy, warmth, and professionalism she brings are unmatched, and the kids are laughing, participating, and completely absorbed from start to finish. Parents consistently comment afterward on how impressed they were. It is clear this is not just a job for her, it is a true passion. She is reliable, easy to work with, and consistently delivers an experience that feels special and memorable. If you are looking for someone who will genuinely delight kids and make a party feel effortless and joyful, look no further. We will absolutely continue to hire her again.

Melody was great! My 2 sons loved her at a party. If I were Melody I would definitely go with a…read morediff company or out on her own. I would have hired her in a min and recommended her to everyone I know. The owner is incredibly diff to work with and is not very truthful, understanding or empathetic. Her website has 3 diff prices for services. Initially it said 249 and then under the services 299. I contacted the owner and she stated it was 299. I said I'm confused bc it stated it was 249 and then 299. She said that's an old price. I thought that's odd so I went to book Melody and the price changed yet again- now it's 339!!! In less than 15 mins the price went from 249- 339!!! The worst part about this experience is that she wasn't willing to honor the price SHE sent in a text and then doubled down by denying service altogether- when the issue was clearly an issue with her site. Rather then making I'm right- or even trying to right the wrong - her solution was to deny us the service- which is going to result in a special needs boy not getting the 1 thing he has asked for in a year or more. He's a very sweet boy that has had a hard life in just about every way. Melody made his worries, hospital visits, being bullied and just his hardships melt away. Quite honestly it was one of the few times I've seen him participate and smile at the mention of her name. Rather than apologize and try to resolve the issue she is going to deny a special needs boy his one ask. I'm so very sad and if she knew my kid at all- she would and should be ashamed that rather than making his bday the best it could be- she is showing that she lacks any empathy or understanding. I hope she reaches out and does the right thing!!!

She was great with the kiddos and so very engaging as well. The kids were captivated by her singing and the sweet activities she did with them. My daughter asked me when we could have another princess come to our house right after the party was over. The kids also loved getting their face painted as well. I would highly recommend I Am Princess Parties to anyone looking to have a wonderful Princess or character experience for their children!

[EDIT] I want to respond to Dulci's wildly inaccurate claims in detail…read more 1// There was parking had entertainer arrived on time. I held a spot but obviously had to give it away when she didn't show up on time. 2// No one treated her unkindly upon her arrival. I asked front desk staff to please look out for performer arrival as they've been nothing but helpful with the kids party, we can corroborate with video footage if needed. This is slandering MCC staff 3// I was texting Dulci and calling the performer throughout her arrival, trying to help her find the clubhouse and also trying to help her with the elevator (and direct her to where balloons are for entrance). Her stress came from being late to the party and not finding parking in the main lot, not from any unkindness toward her. What an outrageous experience trying to blame the parent and the staff when services provided wasn't up to par. I stand by my review - and I think Dulci's response is a great example of the type of gaslighting that will happen to you if you book through this business. [Original Review] This was quite a negative experience TBH. We booked a princess for a 5yo birthday party in Moraga about 2 months in advance and the beginning of the process was easy enough. It's a pretty standard booking. However, every single interaction after I paid the deposit was like pulling teeth. They got my name wrong. I had to chase down the entertainer. I never got timely confirmations (despite promises that I'll be contacted). A week before and 2 nights before and I'm still tracking down who the entertainer is. And the entertainer showed up ~45mins late to a 2 hour party. I've included screenshots of communications. I am shocked they have so many positive reviews - please reconsider unless you want to micromanage the entire process and be disappointed. However, I do want to be fair and did not give 1 star because the entertainer did finally show up and she did entertain the kids (although for 1 hour not 2 like I booked, but I still paid her $150 for 1 hour of her time). So, I would not book again through this provider. Dulci refunded me my deposit, but that doesn't give me the valuable time back for the birthday.

The service is a 10/10! They provide communications and thoroughly detailed confirmations via text,…read moreemail and phone, whichever you prefer. I booked with them for a Bluey character to come to my kids' birthday party. The first 30 minutes was balloon animals and the next hour was the same performer dressed as Bluey and doing some activities with the kids and finally singing happy birthday with the cake. Nomi was AMAZING! He was so professional, cool and handled the requests of kids so well. I will definitely be booking with this company again!
