Santa Dave was absolutely amazing!

We couldn't have asked for a better Santa! He handled our wild children so well and got them all so excited! He had a super cute book that he had the kids sing songs with and then read a story before handing out the gifts we had prepared for him. I would highly suggest and would hire again!

Good Santa!

Santa Dave did a wonderful job at our family Christmas party! The kids had fun singing with him and listening to his story, and he was great at putting the more-timid kids at ease.

Santa Dave was wonderful and magical!

Santa Dave was the very funnest Santa ever. He was a normal person who brought the whole room full of people together. The kids went from wondering if he was the “real” Santa to being full believers. He was magical and made us all feel like he was happy to be there. Definitely brought the Christmas spirit to the whole family! Thank you for coming to our home.

What to expect

If you don't have something in mind, I usually start with reading through a magic version of "Twas the Night Before Christmas" with that we'll sing a few songs, then I can talk to each child and present them with whatever gifts you have to give. We'll wrap it up with family pictures.

About

I've been a professional Santa for 8 years. During that time, I've been lucky enough to have several mentors and training from our local chapter of IBRBS (International Brotherhood of Real Bearded Santa's.) Occasionally my daughters come with me on visits. They are experts at crowd control, handing out candy canes and talking about toys. I love everything about Christmas and have found pure joy in portraying Santa Claus.

Additional booking notes

I usually charge just a little extra for traveling outside the comfort zone of Mrs Claus.
