Good evening and all of the team! My name is Gemma and I’m the owner and Managing Director of
I started my business in 2019 after having my first baby and feeling very isolated and anxious. I found a gap in the market for an educational playgroup where they were set up like an early years classroom so that people could socialise as well as their children playing while hitting early learning milestones. Being an early years teacher myself, I felt I could really thrive in this field! It did so much for my own mental well-being and many parents have said this playgroup changed their life and still does! Fast forward 5 years and I now have a small team who continue to make me proud every day.
We branched out into other educational community classes using my teaching background to plan unique lessons and now run a nature school, story and art classes, exploratory play and music and movement! Further to this, we have brought these classes into educational nursery settings and care homes; so we literally are providing for all ages in the community. As well as all of this, I tutor privately in my home office. This year I was a finalist in the the category ‘Women in Education’ at the Kent Women in Business Awards.
I’m a small independent business and would love to branch out further, offering this model across the UK (let’s start with more of Kent and London first!) Being in your business network could make all the difference! Thank you so much.

Hello,
We are running a music and movement class tomorrow at a new AM time. It’s in a care home in Bexleyheath. We have had nothing short of great feedback but yet are not getting many bookings. For tomorrow we dont have any in which we would have to cancel. Even if you can’t attend yourself, please share with friends and family this evening to see if anyone would like to attend. The residents love it and it’s been so wholesome but we’ll have to stop if we can’t get the numbers. 🙁
18/04/2024

Play, Party and Event Hire. An experience that your mini will never forget.
Hello,
My name is Gemma and I am the Managing Director of Mini wAVe Experience. Creating a lasting impression during a party experience has always been something that I feel is so important. Anyone that attends an event from the planner, right up to the attendees should be talking about your special event for years to come!
Providing for parties in order for your mini to get the very best experience is something that I feel extremely passionate about, but I also think it’s important for parents/carers and other planners to be able to have their say too. It is my job to bring you fresh ideas but also listen to your ideas and support you in bringing them to life to take that pressure away from you so that you can enjoy yourselves. Working together, we can create a party experience that your mini will never forget!
What makes Mini wAVe Experience unique is coming from a primary school background, having been a teacher of all primary year groups for over 10 years, I feel that I know children and what they are interested in, current trends and what they really get excited about! I have also won 2 awards for party hosting. Being a practising teacher (who also holds a valid DBS), I know how children can have fun whilst also bringing in an educational experience. Further to this, I know what currently isn’t out there for children, being a mother myself since November 2018 to my beautiful daughter Clara and my step-daughter Scarlett-Rose, the reasons behind the evolution of this business. Not only do we specialise in children’s play and party hire, we also provide for all age parties and events too! The packages we provide are extensively planned with creative, innovative ideas from myself so that we can continuously offer the very best experience and continue to be fully inclusive.
The business is currently set up into 7 strands. We have:
Soft play (For under 5s and exclusive to Mini wAVe Experience, a Sensory exploration experience suitable for all children from birth up to age 11, but specifically designed for children with Special Education Needs
Portable games (suitable from age 5 upwards to adults)
Football and Sport parties (from age 5 to 12 - inclusive of medals, a trophy and experienced and fully qualified sports coaches)
Tent parties and sleepovers (suitable from age 4 to adulthood - with themes designed by myself and tents and covered created by ‘The Bare Naked Wood Company’, in order to be CE compliant to current safety regulations with a conformity certificate)
Bell tent - sleeps up to 5
Picnic parties - teepee, fable and decorations included
Cinema experience - indoor or outdoor
We can provide for birthday parties, weddings, home parties right through to christenings. You name it, we will provide for it! The great thing about Mini wAVe Experience is that you can have just one of the strands, or all of them together! The packages and more information on each specific strand is outlined on the page and you can mix and match to suit your exact party needs. WE COME TO YOU!
We cover the South East of London around Belvedere (DA17) up to a 5 mile radius for no delivery charge, but will travel to other areas happily for a small charge to cover petrol.
6-10 miles £20
11-15 miles £35
16-25 miles £50
For all bookings and enquiries about our prices, packages and the different events we cater for, contact us or visit our website or other social media pages.
We are fully insured for public liability, can provide valid DBS certificates, risk assessments, covid 19 policies and CE conformity certificates for our tent parties and all our equipment is PAT tested, ensuring maximum safety. We look forward to hearing from you and creating that ‘lasting experience’.
