Party Host
Wonderland Birthday Parties
South Windsor, CT
04.2022 - Current
- I am currently working as a birthday party lead. We have one girl who leads the party and others who assist. I have duties such as: serving food, washing dishes, doing hair in an array of styles, doing makeup, painting nails, assisting in coloring and other arts and craft activities, preparing food, preparing place settings, preparing and setting up for following parties, cleaning floors, cleaning surfaces, general cleaning of party room, and ensuring the space is perfect for the next party. Additionally we have multiple parties in a row and work to ensure everything flows seamlessly. As a lead, I am more focused on coordinating plans with the parents, and directing the other 2 girls who are assisting me. I have to be adaptable and able to think on my feet, as well as proactive.
