Gabby was great! We celebrated my son's 4th birthday in a nature center managed by palm beach county, they required certificate of insurance. Gabby was very professional and quickly provided all the necessary documents. She was on time and prepared. Kids had an amazing time. Would definitely invite Gabby again.
Gabby was amazing from start to finish. The kids were so excited about their balloon creations, which were seriously impressive. She nailed the theme, and my kids still have their balloons on display (at least for now, lol). Totally worth every penny. I’m really glad I chose her for our event—you really can’t go wrong with Gabby.

Gaby was awesome! I hired her for my daughter’s 5th birthday party as a balloon twister and she did a wonderful job. Gaby brought a board with pictures of the balloon arts that she can make (which made it fun for the kids to choose from). Everyone was in awe of not only how cool her creations were but how quickly she was able to make them. She is kind & warm. Would definitely hire again for another party!
Response from Fun by Gabby:
Thank you so much for your feedback! It certainly was a great day! Kids were so good! Great party. I enjoyed making some new design beyond my board! Which I love!!!
Thanks!
Looking forward helping you again to make your events súper and amazing!!!

We made the best decision to hire Fun by Gabby for our offices participation in the Parkland Farmers Market! Gabby provided face painting and balloon twisting to eager children waiting patiently for their turn. Needless to say our booth was the hit of the market and we had a great turnout of kids/parents, which in turn allowed us to market our pediatric dental office!! I highly recommend Gabby and her services for any type of event, big or small!
Response from Fun by Gabby:
Thank you so much for your review! Is greatly appreciated! We sure had a great day and lots of fun! The hot of the market! Always happy to help you with your events!
We had a community event last week and hired Gabby to do balloon twisting. She was wonderful. We had a long line of kids waiting and Gabby was patient and kind to each child. She did not stress at all with how many kids were waiting and she also did not rush out at the end of her hour. We would definitely recommend her for any of your parties or events and we can not wait to work with her again!
Response from Fun by Gabby:
Thank you so much for your review! We had so much fun at the event! It was a lot of kids but is so worthy when I get to see their smiles!!!
Fun by Gabby was the best addition for our community event. We have used her multiple times, for face painting and also ballon twisting. We had a community event at the park for community business and services.
Our tent had the most visitors thanks to her amazing talent!!!! She brings all her equipment, she’s punctual and best of all the kids LOVE LOVE her!!! Would recommend her for any community event, birthday party, business event, and school events.
Response from Fun by Gabby:
So glad to have the opportunity to help you with your events! We certainly had a blast in each one! Thank you very much for your review! We are always here to have fun and wonderful time at your events! ☺️

For birthday party I always get 30 minutes before, to set up (what can take my 10-15 minutes) but mainly to make a special design (face painting or balloon) for the birthday boy or girl, which nobody else will get, and according to the party theme.
For large events, fairs, festival, farmers markets, etc, I will be there at least 20 minutes before to set up, will discussed the amount of people and age of crowd expected, will give recommendation to the client about the better location and things to consider, as balloon twisting and face painting are usually very popular in the events, there will be a line! And it has to have enough space and keep social distancing. Also will discussed logistics and other important detail in advance.
Each event is different, I will discussed detail before the day of the event and adapt to it as much as possible.
I will do everything in my hands to keep everything clean and sanitized, as I keep my stuff clean and my hands too, will have everything needed to sanitized kids faces before painting, hands. Clean before start each kids balloon, etc.
My rate is per hour, first hour has a set fee, after that will depend on how many hours, distance to travel and size and type of event. I offer specials for schools and summer camps.
My name is Gabby, born in US, raised in Venezuela, and came back!!! Former Dentist, specialist in kids dentistry, but my passion: handcrafting and creating smiles with my work! Here is where balloon twisting and face painting get in the picture! Love that excitement and expectation when I start inflating the balloon... until that beautiful smile when I finish and handle it to the child! And even adult get amazed! Love that too!
Space and setup is very important, I need time and space to set up, space to have enough room to be standing and kids waiting at least 3 feet away, and at least 2 feet between my set up and the start of the line, while in line, kids will see menu to choose what they want before hand, what moves line faster!
A table to have equipment, same space require for face painting or balloon twisting.
Balloon and face painting can be offered at the same event, but not at the same time, will require an minimum of 3 hours to be able to do both services.
If outdoor event, need to be under tent or shade, as balloons or painting can not be exposed to direct sunlight.
If is a event with music, preferible to be as far as possible from the music/sound, to improve communication with kids.
Table at least 4feet.
If outside event: Some shade, tree or tent.
