Coordinating and planning with Alina was made easy because of her responsiveness. There was a last minute change in plans for the party that caused an issue to arise, but with thorough communication and compromising, we were able to resolve the issue prior to the event. She was absolutely wonderful. Everyone loved her work and she was especially patient and pleasant with all my guests. Her art is great & I'd absolutely recommend her services for any aged party, but especially children. read more

Alina was very timely and a great addition to my child's birthday party. The kids enjoyed her face painting artistic abilities and creative balloon animals/ shapes. She cares for the children and when a child was upset from something else she was quick to make something to put a smile on the sad child's face. Some designs I remember seeing were snowman, unicorn, hibiscus, heart, rainbow, and kitten faces. A dragon, unicorn, sea horse, flower bracelet, septor/ wand, and panda balloons. She will need a table and 2 chairs to do her magic read more

I found Alina here and so happy I did. She is great with kids. She also speaks russian which was a nice bonus for our russian speaking kids. She does great balloon twisting using more than one balloon and picking amazing colors. She was nice to make me even a flower that matched my dress. And of course all the kids were able to get a face paint and a balloon of their choice: my kids got a cute butterfly and a unicorn. And another nice bonus was - she was more affordable than others I have contacted. She was also very kind to dress up as I requested- in a rainbow theme. By the way, our guests noticed that she was a professional and would do her job fast which means she was able to serve all the kids of the party. Recommend her!!! read more

Masterful! We've been to a number of parties with Alina presiding and she's the stand-out wow factor always. The quality, creativity and care is second-to-none. The kids really respond to her, and her ability to personalize the designs is a thing of beauty. She's even magnanimous enough to help find other face-painters in her network if she's not available. Just a great partner in all things kids parties on the Peninsula... read more

Alina came to our Girl Scout end of year party and did an amazing job. Not only does she take the time to make beautiful face paint creations but she also talks to the child while doing it, making them feel special. Even though we booked her for just our hour meeting she stayed overtime because not all the girls had their faces done. She cared more about making the children happy then the extra time she needed to stay. I would absolutely use her again. read more

Alina handled the balloon art at the History Museum Halloween event on Sunday 10/23. She came across rude and impatient with the kids. Exaggerated sighing and answering kids questions regarding the balloon menu with annoyance. Her art was good but her attitude was bad. Maybe she was overwhelmed with the long line - and if so, that's something she needed to sort out with the organizers. This was no way to talk to little kids. Left many of us parents with a sour taste in our mouths, and kids sad. Definitely ruined the evening for us. read more

She is a wonderful, friendly, innovative and talented person to work with! We loved having her at our office party, she's so awesome, we keep having her back. Definitely recommend her to anyone looking for amazing face paints or balloons. read more

We love Alina! She is super duper talented and her work is amazing. She puts so much soul and heart in her ballon creations, crafting the cutest and most unique treasures.

She also made me a holiday wreath which makes me smile every time I look at it. Thank you Alina for making us happy with your talent. I will be booking Alina for future parties. You are easy to talk to, great with the kids, and so much fun to be around. read more

I hired Alina for my 3 years old birthday at his preschool. There were twenty five 3 year-old at the party, Alina not only had made 25+ different kinds of complicated balloons to each of them (from mermaid, to fish pole with fish, to Spider-Man, t-Rex, magic wand , you name it) to make them each feel special, but also had made them chuckled and laughed the whole time!! Alina was so experienced and professional, she had finished making balloons to each kid within a half of the time we committed, so I asked if she could make more balloons for another class with 30 more kids. She said yes without a doubt! All 55+ kids were so happy that day and still talked about it days after. Thank you Alina. I would hire her again in a heart beat read more

We recently met her in a birthday party. Saw some odd behavior: 1) she tries to push/ impose her choice on kids 2) she keeps telling kids- leave ur ballon with me after I make it. If it pops, i dont have time to make another one. 3) was pretty sarcastic with one kid which was really odd. I would not recommend her. read more

Alina was awesome!!! We hired her for our daughters 1st birthday and she was a great hit. She kept the kids (age 3-10) entertained the entire time. I've never seen kids giggle and laugh so much... The best part was her balloon art & face painting- they were truly so artistic. She made any and every character that was asked of her, everyone was so impressed. She was easy to book and very responsive to messages and questions. She was also super accommodating and flexible with our timeline, she was willing to wait until all the kids got to the party before starting her show and guaranteed everyone got their own custom balloon/face painting. All in all, I would highly recommend booking her for a little kids party :) read more
