Debutots - Finchley, Hampstead & Muswell Hill

WELCOME TO DEBUTOTS!

Hello, I’m Jennifer. I’m a trained actress, director and drama teacher who’s been using drama and storytelling to entertain, educate and inspire children of all ages for many years.

Since 2007 my Debutots franchise has grown from strength to strength, and now reaches hundreds of children and families each week. We run workshops, classes and clubs in nurseries and schools, intergenerational sessions in care homes, birthday parties, holiday camps and 1:1 confidence tutoring.

Nurseries & Schools

We also run storytelling and dramatic play classes for children in nurseries and primary schools. Our sessions are all linked to the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS – birth to 5 years) and Key Stage 1 (KS1 age 5-7) and we can provide Planning Packs to show how each session meets the objectives in the national curricula.

A visit from Jennifer is the highlight of the week. We have seen a huge difference in the children's confidence – it’s also great for their language and ability to follow stories. Cathy Twomey-Brenner, Owner, Little Tree Montessori Nursery, Crouch End

I have to tell you everyone is so impressed with the classes. The staff have all said how innovative the sessions are and it is wonderful to have fresh new inspiring drama lessons. The children are so engaged. We are all really delighted and looking forward to future sessions. Clowns Nursery, NW11

I enjoyed it so much I tried to dream about it! Tabitha (aged 7)

I just wanted to say thank you so much for a wonderful week. I was a bit anxious about him going as he’s never been before but he absolutely loved it. Parent

He had a wonderful time so thanks. We tried a different camp last Summer and he was not happy at all so we were a bit nervous but no need!! Parent

We’ve had Jennifer for both my daughters' birthday parties for the past three years. I don’t know another person that engages with children as well as Jennifer does. Erin Anderson

Jennifer was absolutely fantastic at my son's 3rd party. She kept all the children thoroughly entertained, without the use of a microphone! She is reliable, friendly and is the perfect choice. Belinda Lyons

I’d really recommend Jennifer for parties. She totally captivated all the children at my son’s 5th birthday party last weekend with specially tailored games and stories along with lots of bubbles! Eleanor Munif

Thank you Jennifer for an amazing 3rd birthday party, our daughter absolutely loved it as did all her friends. The parents keep telling me how much fun it was, for them as well as their children! Karnika Raja

Intergenerational

Joining Generations With Imagination is a project which partners residential care homes and pre schools or nurseries for intergenerational story sessions.
The impact of the project is incredibly powerful with the benefits for both residents and children visible the second the children walk in the room.
The regular sessions use storytelling and imaginative play to foster and encourage wonderful interactions and friendships between the generations.

That was an inexpressible and irreplaceable joy! This is the cycle of life. Resident at Mary Feilding Guild, N6

Jennifer, I observed the session and it was truly marvellous – you have the magic touch with children and the residents that attended absolutely loved it. Thank you very much indeed Director of Mary Feilding Guild

When the children come to see us I feel alive again, it makes me feel young and so happy. Resident at Perry Manor Care Home

The friendships between the generations are forever building and here at Gold Hill, we are so proud to have joined forces with these incredible children and create memories that will last forever. Manager of Gold Hill Care Home
