The Ultimate Hassle-Free Party · LAYCA Centre, Solihull

You Just Bring the Cake

Sound familiar? You start by trying to find a venue — eventually tracking down the number for a village hall, waiting days for the caretaker to call back, only to find it is already booked. Then you need an entertainer. Then a bouncy castle company. Then food. Then decorations. Each one a separate phone call, a separate booking, a separate thing to worry about.

And then the day arrives. You are setting up, blowing up balloons, serving food, clearing plates, chasing children — so run off your feet that somewhere in the middle of all of that was supposed to be your child's most magical day.

It Doesn't Have to Be Like This.

Tickety-Boo's Ultimate Hassle-Free Party at The LAYCA Centre in Solihull sorts absolutely everything in one simple booking. Exclusive venue, two hours of professional entertainment, bouncy castle, disco, food for twenty children, decorations, and a dedicated host running every moment from start to finish — with tea and coffee for the parents too.

You Arrive. You Watch. You Celebrate.
We Do Everything Else.

Nursery & Preschool Entertainment

Little People. Big Tickety-Boo Fun.

Bring Tickety-Boo straight into your nursery or preschool. Singing, dancing, action songs, puppets, parachutes, bubbles, games and a mini disco — forty-five minutes of it, delivered at your setting, with nothing for your team to plan.

45-Minute Mini Party — From £155

Birthdays · graduation · Christmas · end of term · themed weeks · or simply because it's Wednesday and the children deserve something brilliant.

Don't Wait for a Special Occasion

Make Tickety-Boo part of your calendar — weekly, fortnightly or monthly. A regular music and movement session your staff don't have to prepare, that the children start asking about days in advance.

Nursery Groups & Multi-Site Operators

Run More Than One Setting?
Let's Get Tickety-Boo Into All of Them.

We work with nursery owners, regional managers and multi-site Early Years operators to build a programme across several settings.

One Conversation. Multiple Settings.
Regular Tickety-Boo Entertainment.

One point of contact, one invoice, and one very familiar face the children already know. Tell us how many settings you run and we'll build something around your calendar.

School Parties & Discos

Not Just a DJ.
A Proper Tickety-Boo Party.

Big School. Big Energy.
Everybody Joins In.

Colin isn't standing behind a DJ booth playing songs. He's hosting, leading, getting the hall involved and running mass-participation games built for a room full of children.

A birthday party with twenty children is one thing. A school hall with a hundred and fifty is completely different — and we never run knockout games that leave half the room sitting against the wall.

School Disco & Party Details

We Don't Just Turn Up. We Turn It Up.

For more than twenty years Tickety-Boo has been making children go absolutely bananas — and parents go blissfully stress-free. Family owned, full-time, seven days a week.

We are not a national franchise and we are not a call centre. We're a real West Midlands family business, and every party gets the same preparation: the right equipment, tested and ready; a plan for the room and the age group; clear communication before the day; and somebody who knows how to hold the attention of thirty excited children and keep every one of them included.

Turning up is the easy part. Knowing what to do with the room when you get there is the twenty years.

Covering the West Midlands: Birmingham · Solihull · Sutton Coldfield · Coventry · Tamworth · Lichfield · Walsall · Redditch · Bromsgrove — and beyond. Just ask.

SEND-Friendly Children's Entertainment

Fun Should Include Everybody

Tickety-Boo has extensive real-world experience adapting entertainment for children with additional needs. Two of our own children have Autism and ADHD — so when we adapt a party for a child with additional needs, we do it with real understanding, real experience and genuine personal care rather than a policy document.

We actively accommodate children with Autism, ADHD, sensory processing needs, anxiety and other additional requirements across every party, nursery session and school event we run. We know what sensory overload looks like in a room full of excited children. We know how to build a safe, predictable structure that helps a child feel confident, included and completely part of the fun — without making them feel different for needing it. Pace, volume and activity can all be adjusted.

Different Children Join In Differently.
That's Absolutely Fine.

Please tell us about your child or your group when you get in touch. We want their party to be every bit as spectacular as everyone else's — and that is why SEND families across Birmingham, Solihull and the West Midlands come back to us year after year.
