Hi, I’m Holly — the hands, heart, and a little bit of chaos behind Wild Child Catering.

I’ve been a chef for over 20 years, and food has always been my love language. I grew up in the kitchen beside my mum, watching her create meals that didn’t just feed people, but brought them together. Her passion, her vision, and her belief that food is a story worth telling became the recipe that shaped me from the very beginning.

Today, I’m lucky enough to carry on that legacy — mixing the old-school heart of my childhood with the wild energy of the life I live now.

I’m a mum to two beautiful little boys, who keep me humble, honest, and permanently on my toes. Life with them is loud, messy and full of laughs. They’re the reason I cook with purpose, create with love, and show up every day even when the house looks like a snack tornado blew through it.

That same energy comes into my work. I love a long grazing table, a generous country buffet and food that makes people feel at home. My style is rustic, a little playful and always made for the people who’ll be eating it.

Every event is different, so I build menus around your people, your venue, the kitchen and equipment available, and what you’re comfortable spending. I’m practical about what will work on the day, and I care about keeping good food affordable. Whether it’s a wedding, a family celebration or a local event, I want you to feel looked after and your guests to leave happy and well fed.

Wild Child Catering is a little piece of my family, my experience and my personality on every table. I can’t wait to bring it to yours.

It’s my story, my legacy.

Good food. Real heart. Wild energy
