Birthday Parties at Gymboree Play & Music

We had our son's 2nd birthday party at Gymboree Watford and it was wonderful! Jack and Sandra made everyone feel welcome and kept the 17 children engaged and laughing. The Watford team is just super (we have been going to classes since our son was 10 weeks old) - professional, friendly and empathetic. They make every trip a great experience. Many of our friends want to try out a class or have a parry as a result of great atmosphere at our party. The location is also so convenient in the shopping centre (parking, shops, food options) so it's a very easy experience even with little ones in toe!

The team are always so friendly, helpful and fantastic at making memories for little ones. My little boy loves his sessions at Gymboree and when we held his party there he was in his element. Thank you to all who make Gymboree happen you are all amazing.

I had reached out to Gymboree Watford for my child's 4th bday. Everything was very well organized. The team was in touch before the event to understand the needs and customised the activities based on the requested theme. Jack was absolutely amazing during the entire event making sure that all kids had fun. He helped out with the decorations and in the clean up after the party as well. All the children had a fantastic time.

Jack - you were so helpful and kind throughout. And the way you entertained the kids during the structured segment was executed to perfection. You really listened to what we had said about Jacob being a little overwhelmed sometimes, about his likes and dislikes, and even down to the music you played. The activities were so original and the kids had the best time.
I can’t tell you how many parents complimented you and the party in general. In fact, I think a couple of them may be booking you in future!
Thank you also to Amber and the team for making the booking process so easy and being flexible when we needed to change the date.
Can’t recommend Gymboree Watford enough!!

Gymboree party at home absolutely made my son's 3rd birthday in our garden! The gymboree lead was brilliant with the children, getting them all to join in and play, with a huge variety of games and activities that kept them all going for 45minutes and was cleverly related to things my son loved.
All the parents and kids after the party all talked about how much fun it was, even those a few yers older, I'd recommend it to anyone!

I wanted to take a minute to share how happy and incredibly grateful we are to Shona for doing Henry’s birthday party.

She was honestly THE BEST - it’s not easy to handle a big group of 3 year olds and she did a spectacular job.

From helping us with the set up, through handling the chaos that comes with having so many kids and parents, all the way to making everything easier for us (taking videos, cutting the cake, comforting Henry…it’s an endless list!)

Shona to me is irreplaceable and I would love to see her grow within gymboree - she honestly so great at everything she does; even my mum who comes to visit every few months always comments on how great she is with both kids and grown ups :)

Thanks again to Shona and the team for such great experience!

My daughter had a fantastic art and play party for her third birthday. Ahead of the party we discussed what type of theme she wanted and the team came up with some wonderfully creative ideas. Everyone at the party had an amazing time- no meltdowns all round!

Aaron was amazing. He set up all the decorations and he entertained the toddlers and kept them engaged during the whole party. My 2 year old enjoyed it and the kids did too. Thank you so much for making Ayla's day so special.

It was an AMAZING PARTY!!!! Thanks to Sandra and Jack who did so incredibly well entertaining the kids! The entertaining part was well structured, but no pressure at all, all kids could either participate or create their own show- absolutely brilliant work! Easy on parents, easy on kids. Highly recommend for parties! And for free gym and classes as well!

The entertainment was perfect as always, everything was done on time and as we asked. I would have preferred if the party was hosted by someone we knew but it was amazing regardless. As much as you would think 2 hrs are enough for a 1 year old party, we should have had a longer party so that things could be done less in a rush, especially because some guests unfortunately arrived late. I do believe though that 50£ for an extra 30 min it’s a bit too much, which is the reason why we didn’t book an extra half an hour in the end. Overall, it’s good value for money if you don’t have many guests. The room where you’re supposed to eat is quite small, and not equipped for adults so I’d recommend bringing in a few chairs. All the babies had an amazing time and the parents left happy. We would definitely book it again and we recommended it to all our friends!
