3 Reasons to Trust the Pros
Some of the real benefits of handing over the reins for your child’s birthday:
1. Stress-Free Execution
Toddling after a 2yr old hyperactive bundle of energy and coordinating for a party (managing caterers, guests, etc) is exhausting enough! Planning a party would be a massive stress on you. We manage all of this for you in a nice timely order to ensure your child’s party is a huge success, so you can enjoy it as well!
2. Access to a Premium Vendor Network
It’s unlikely that you know a great cake maker who can provide a custom design for your child’s party and, at the same time, provide you with a list of local bouncy castles that are safe to use. In addition, finding a great children’s entertainer can be a daunting task. But, a children’s party planner has a list of preferred local vendors that they use time and time again and they will book them for you.
3. Unmatched Creative Cohesion
Kids Party Planners in Nairobi can turn a simple idea for a child’s party into an experience. A party planner can create a ‘Superhero Training Camp’ or ‘Under the Sea Adventure’ and make sure that all of the elements of the party work together to create an amazing impression that will be remembered for years to come.
7 Insider Tips for Finding the Ultimate Planner
How to choose an event planning team? At Kids Party Planners we have put together a checklist to help you choose an event planner for your occasion.
1. Check Their Local Portfolio
A local portfolio is essential for checking a planner’s ability to adapt to local conditions and bring ideas to life in various settings around Kenya – a garden in Karen or indoors in Kilimani, for example.
2. Look for Customization
The best kids party planners will not offer you to buy off the shelf packages. They will rather be eager to hear about the interests of your child and then put together a customized package for you and your child.
3. Prioritize Safety
Safety of all children attending a party is of the utmost importance. Ask about a number of issues regarding safety including sanitization of play equipment, entertainers and other staff that may interact with kids including temporary employees.
4. Read Genuine Reviews
Don’t only look at Instagram reviews, read from other Kenyan parents with kids of different ages to know how other children have reacted to the party. Check also if the organizer is on time, able to solve last minute problems and how they communicate.
5. Discuss Budget Transparency
They should clearly lay out a detailed and comprehensive breakdown of their costs, no surprise fees! They should also be transparent with you right from the start.
6. Assess Their Vendors
The kids party planner’s network of vendors. If they are utilizing a group of poor quality cake makers, mediocre emcees, mediocre children’s entertainers then that is ultimately going to reflect on you at your function. Check on who they utilize as vendors.
7. Evaluate Communication
Pay attention to their immediate response to your request and their level of interest towards the ideas that you have for the kids’ party. You want to select a team of party organizers for kids who are going to be great communicators throughout the planning of your children’s event.
