"Thanks so much for being part of Alisabeth's party. The girls had a great time and everyone loved the way you worked with the kids. "

"Thank you SO much for your huge effort. The kids are still raving about it! If I could put you in a bottle and bottle some of that energy it would be brilliant for me. Your enthusiasm is great! Once again thank you very much. You’re sensational!"

"Your show was highly entertaining and enjoyed by all - the kids were still talking about it today! You have wonderful gifts that you're using to God's glory. :-) May God bless your ministry richly. "

"The staff and children at Lady Lawley Cottage send a big thank you to Josephine and Goggles for making the three days of their July school holidays special. Josephine, your interactive and inclusive approach during your shows allowed children with various disabilities at Lady Lawley Cottage to actively participate and engage in all activities during your performances. It really shows when someone so obviously loves what they are doing no matter what level of ability the audience is. As you were not personally recommended by anyone, I must admit that I was initially apprehensive but all the three performances were way above my expectations. I was so very impressed, and I am happy to recommend your services to anyone thinking of having an entertainer for children with disabilities. "

"Thank you so much to you too for celebrating our little princess’s 3rd birthday with us, it was such a special day!! It was so lovely having you here and you were such a treat! Everyone enjoyed the fun activities and we received many compliments and all worth the look of joy on Isabel’s face, I think and hope that she will remember the day for a long time :) Thank you for the cd-bookset gift, your singing is lovely and we’re listening to it every morning so far."

"Thank you so much for visiting our church last Sunday! We’ve had amazing feedback from the parents whose children absolutely LOVED you and Goggles! Thank so so much! You are amazingly generous!! May you be blessed."

"Just a short note to say thankyou for a wonderful performance at Belmay PS ECE centre yesterday.  I have had such positive feedback from the staff.  The children are still talking about it this morning – one little one reminding others that everyone is special.  

The staff have mentioned that your ability to manage the children is outstanding - exciting them very positively whilst being able to settle them easily which is a really critical skill in early childhood and something that staff appreciate from guest speakers and visiting artists.

The performance was pitched at exactly the right level for our students – involving maths and literacy concepts, music and movement skill development whilst attending to social and emotional aspects as well. "

"Thank you for an absolutely fabulous morning...."

"Just to add my "Thumbs Up" to Marie's...I have had Josephine (solo) here this morning for a special LIW Story Time Musical Morning. She was great! High energy, lovely respect for both the kids and their parents and terrific fun (I even had a dance myself!).
Fantastic feedback from parents and it was obvious the kids loved it.
Highly Recommended :)"

"Thank you once again for making Jayden's 6th birthday party a memorable one."

"Thanks so much for your great contribution to the show "

"Thank you for the wonderful visit. The children thoroughly enjoyed your show. They were truly amazed at the size of Goggles! I love the theme you have running throughout the show - I always talk to the children about how special they are and for them to hear it from you as well it only confirmed to them that they are SPECIAL. "

"Josephine & Goggles were a refreshing "double act" at City of Canning libraries this year. Her sense of timing, interspersing listening with participative activity was great and the children didn’t have time to fidget or become distracted.  Josephine was "switched on" to the message of Children's Book Week and the importance of reading and conveyed this to the children."

"Thankyou so much for such a fantastic party on Sunday for Bailey.  All of the kids really loved it and everyone was commenting on how wonderful you were....Thankyou again anyway for making the day so special for the kids and so great for me because that was the first children’s party I’ve ever had that I actually got to talk to my adult guests!  Normally I’m running around like a headless chicken trying to do the lot so it was so lovely to be able to chat…..wow, what a treat! "

"Thank you so much for taking part at the pavilion Youth Theatre Week this last week. As always it was an absolute pleasure to work with you. The kids loved your show! You really do have a wonderful gift with children. We look forward to working with you again in the future! "

"I want to tell you how much Luca has enjoyed you Cd. There are actually no words to describe the joy he has from it. I sometimes play it in the car when I fetch him from school,. Heehee He thinks this is such a treat.
As for your book.It's fantastic. It really is.I hope you can work on schools to using it as there class reading book.It's amazing how deep and powerful lessons can be learnt through literature."
