Regarding her performance at Edinburgh, the Guardian UK said, "She's the best comedian we've seen so far. She throws away lines most comedians would die for." On her Last Comic Standing performances, the What's So Funny blog wrote, "Kilmartin had some good and sick baby material. We're used to the male perspective... but it's even sicker when the nurturing mother does it. Sick in a good way. Funny stuff."
