About – Dorset Children’s Party entertainer Jamie Jigsaw

It's all about the kids

When I’m asked why I do what I do, the answer is always because of the kids. Children are funny, cheeky and are much smarter than they let on.
Even after 20+ years of performing, children are still my favourite audience. I’m fortunate to meet thousands of children at over 250 events each year and they still surprise me, make me laugh and smile.

Who is Jamie Jigsaw?

Other than being a micro-celebrity to children (and their parents) in Dorset, I am also a husband to my wonderful wife Becky and a father to my gorgeous daughter Darcy. Becoming a dad helped me to realise just how important our children are to us which reinforced my passion for making children’s birthdays as best as they can be and making family events a family bonding memory. It also taught me that being a parent is hard and very time consuming so I love the fact that during my parties you can really take time to enjoy the moment.
I have been performing for over half my life, so you can be sure that I have a wealth of experience and expertise to help your event go as smoothly as possible.

WOW, what can I say,
Jamie entertained at my daughters 6th Birthday party and I cannot recommend him enough. Children and adults alike had an amazing time, laughing, magic and more. Not a dull face or bored look through the whole session.

Some parents who had other older children said he was the best entertainer they had seen.

If your looking for a child's entertainer make jamie your 1st choice. It won't be something you regret, my daughter has already asked for him to do it all again next year!

Jamie Jigsaw is hands down, the best children's entertainer there is. His mix of humour, magic, and entertainment is brilliant.
We have been lucky enough to have Jamie Jigsaw twice for our children's birthday parties and from start to finish, he is clear, professional and knows exactly what he is doing. He is an absolute professional and from the moment he arrived at the house, as parents we knew we were in a 'safe pair of hands'. We could relax and get on with the rest of the party- we could prep the party food and party bags, while Jamie Jigsaw was making the children (and then parents) roar with laughter in the garden.
His humour is great and he has the children and the parents laughing along. He makes sure that all children are included in the fun and all the children left with a smile on their face. He has genius ways of making sure all of the children get to the food table at the right time, makes sure they all get to the right place to sing the happy birthday song, and most importantly he congas them out the door to make sure they all leave at the end! 😂
So many parents have messaged afterwards to say what a wonderful time their child had at the party.
We couldn't be happier, and most importantly, our child had the best birthday party we could wish for.

We are so pleased we chose Jamie Jigsaw to entertain at our sons 5th birthday party. From start to finish he was so professional and easy to communicate with. The children absolutely loved him and he had the children captivated for the whole 2 hours from magic show to the party games. Recommend 100% and hope to have him back for another party in the future!

Jamie did my daughter’s 5th birthday party at the weekend, he was absolutely brilliant. Took all the stress away at the party and took care of everything. We had a large party of 38 kids and Jamie kept them entertained the whole time and also the adults too. He sorted out timings to eat, when to do cake, lunch times, the lot . The kids had a fantastic time and the amount of messages we have had from other parents saying how great he was overwhelming.
Do not hesitate and book Jamie, you won’t regret it!

Response from the owner:Wow! Thank you so much Jonathon! It was a pleasure to entertain and host at your daughter's party. I'm so pleased she had a great time and it was easy for you. I look forward to working with you again in the future. All the best, JJ

We booked Jamie to host our daughter's 5th birthday party. He did such a great job keeping all the kids entertained and engaged. Our daughter had the best time 😊

Response from the owner:Thank you Hayley! You planned an excellent party and the attention to detail was spot on. I'm so pleased you all had a great time and I hope to work with you again soon. All the best, JJ

Jamie Jigsaw attending our wedding and performed a balloon modelling walkabout to entertain all the children. His balloon models were extremely advanced, so much more than your standard dog. The kids loved it and so did we, thank you Jamie.

Response from the owner:Thank you for your Simon! It is always so special to me being able to join people on their wedding day. I'm so pleased the children (and adults) enjoyed their balloons :-) All the best, JJ

Worked with Jamie on a wedding recently, I was doing axe throwing whilst he was entertaing the guests...jolly chap and very funny...happy to recommend!

Response from the owner:Thanks for your review! It was a great day, despite the rain. The guests loved the axe throwing too! See you again soon, JJ

Loved the circus skills workshop and magic show today at peartree green. Fantastic engagement with children and made the adults laugh too. Very entertaining. My kids loved it (age7 & 2) as did myself and my husband (somewhat older).

Response from the owner:Hey Linda, Thank you for your review and for attending the event! I'm glad you all enjoyed the entertainment :-) I look forward to seeing you at future events too. JJ

Great show at Harmans Cross on bank holiday Monday. Our grand daughter insisted we came back for the second show which she really enjoyed. Saw Jamie in 2023 as well. Great show and some bits for the bigger kids ( adults) as well.

Response from the owner:Thanks for the review Steve! Harmans Cross is always one of my highlights of the summer. I'm so pleased your grand daughter enjoyed both shows. Hopefully see you next year, if not before :-)
