Art tuition

Hi, I'm a mum and fine artist. I studied illustration, printmaking, film etc all manner of the arts for a long time and have a masters from well known art college. I also work at galleries and schools doing workshops with children & young people of all ages and have written courses for adults on art appreciation.

Since being a mum I've become less interested in my own practice and more interested in teaching my nearly 2 yr old lots of fun arty activities. I am thinking of doing this is a living and wondered if there is demand out there so I'm just asking parents - would you pay for an artist/tutor to do an art session with your child? or for parties? Do children need extra art tuition for those studying art at school - like some use extra tuition for maths for example? Just wondering if there is a need out there.

There are some art classes near me that seem well attended (London). Also, I run a local charity which runs some art classes for older people (although currently run by a volunteer).

Community Focus is another charity which arranges classes.
