The Balloon Lady

Set List

Birthday Parties normally last an hour with 25 kids or less. If you expect 25 or more kids I require a 1.5 to 2 hour minimum . I charge an extra $25 - $50 to travel outside of the Louisville/Southern Indiana area. Please contact me for price quote or with any questions on rates.

All my events have been as short as 30 minutes and as long as 8 hours. That is totally up to the event planner.

Influences & Inspiration

I still use the same traits and friendly humor as I did when Sweet Petunia the Clown. There are 2 Children's Entertainers: Dave Risley - "The Riz" and Samuel Patrick Smith who have influenced my career both as a clown and balloon twister.

Testimonials

What can I say, Sweet Petunia is amazing with the children. They loved getting the chance to paint their faces & dress up like a real clown...and now that they've discovered how to do magic tricks, they can barely contain their enthusiasm. In fact after Sweet Petunia leaves, all we teachers hear for the rest of the day is how much fun they had! Petunia is as equally kind to the kids as she is patient...and we love having her...thanks Sweet Petunia!

Sweet Petunia was "Sweet". She was great to work with, she arrived on time and seemed to enjoy her work through out the day! The kids were very interested and enjoyed her presence. We will definitely want her back in 2010.

Sweet Petunia, Thank you so much in helping us, the Giggles Program, fulfill our goal in "Bringing Smiles to Little Faces". You defiantly left the kid's smilin'.

– Karen Crook, Mommies' Helping Soap & Candle Company - Mall of St. Matthews & Jefferson Mall

Thank you so much for bringing laughter and joy to our residences. Some of the nice comments made from the residents were: "It felt so good to laugh again, and to be taken back in time when we were young and life was so simple". Another resident said, "I'm 100 years old and you made that special time stand still for me".

– Judy Gardner, Activity Director of the Loretta Mother House - Nerinx, KY

Sweet Petunia kept the attention of a wide age range of children. She went over and above the call of duty, staying more than an hour over so that all the children could have a balloon animal.

– Carol Wellman, Light Community Center - Louisville, KY

Thank you for such a wonderful visit to our daycare. The children still ask about Sweet Petunia! Keep bring those smiles to the kids around the world. You are very good at what you do.

– Renee' Watson, Director & Owner of Small World Day Care - Brandenburg, KY

Thanks to Sweet Petunia our Valentine's Day Party was made more special. The children ages 2-5 years old thoroughly enjoyed her magic. I could hear the laughter of the children from my office. Sweet Petunia kept them entertained and involved. Thanks again!

– Diana Hightchew, Basic Trust Child Care - Alexandria, KY

Sweet Petunia the clown was the nicest, friendliest clown ever! She spoke in a tone that kept the children calm and interested. The children really enjoyed themselves, and the adults were pleased as well. She did an excellent job and I'd recommend her to anyone. The price of her service was reasonable, too.

– Gloria Stivers-Hatchett, Grandparent of Celeste' Ortega

Everything was perfectly planned for my daughter's 5th birthday party. All the children (ages 2-5 years) were very amused. The birthday girl was catered to and she felt very special. She still talks about the "Clown Lady".

– Sheryl Fox, parent of Emani Conn

Everyone enjoyed your act! I was worried that it might be too childish for Dr. Reed's birthday, but it wasn't. I will definitely keep your number and refer you to everyone.

– Thanks, Tracy Fajardo

Arrived early; very friendly; children enjoyed the show. Would recommend to friends.

– Chris Eith, Anna's Father

Sweet Petunia I wanted to thank you again for the wonderful entertainment at our Grandmother's 94th birthday party. She absolutely loved it! We got so many comments from the family on how much fun the party was this year and most of that was thanks to you; we did very little different than all the other years with everything else. I snapped a couple really good pictures of you and her and I sent them to her, she loves having them to show all her visitors. Thanks again, you definitely made her day!

– Kasey Gehring

I just wanted to tell you that you did an awesome job at Ava's 1st birthday party on Sunday. I think the kids really enjoyed it (even though some were shy) and the adults really did, too! I had one guest tell me that you were the best clown they've ever seen. Too bad Ava was a little scared...she's starting to get a little like that the older she gets. Anyways...great job, and thanks so much for doing it! We were very pleased. Thanks again.

– Shannon Smith

Great show!! It really added to the party for my husband. I loved the clown nose thing. Thanks again.

– Missy Phelps

You are very funny, Petunia! Also you were extremely inexpensive and of course a school always appreciates that. Keep making people smile!
