Ho ho ho!

Santa Tom was great! He was on time and suited up quickly. He was excellent with the kids and they all loved him. I would definitely work with him again! Thank you Santa Tom!

Santa Tom was amazing!

Santa Tom was apart of our pancake breakfast at the fire house. He was very professional and on time. He definitely made our event so much better and brought the holiday spirit.

Live Santa Tom!!

We couldn’t have been happier to have Santa Tom greet and chat with the children at our recent event! Kind, funny and entertaining, Santa Tom has a natural affinity with kids and all his visitors came away with smiles on their faces and sweet dreams of Christmas morning in their hearts! Be the smartest person in the room and have Santa Tom at your next holiday event! 🎅❤️

Spectacular Santa!

We hired Tom for an event with 455 guests. He was in character throughout the entire event and was very charming with the little ones. He welcomed kids wherever they were comfortable, sitting or standing next to him or even just a high five. He was the most charming Santa we have used in all the years of our event. The first year that we had Tom as Santa, one of our four year old guests mentioned to her mom that Santa seemed different this year - "you know, he has those twinkle eyes." Indeed he does! I highly recommend him.

Excellent Santa, great with kids

I'm the executive director of a non-profit organization. Tom has been Santa for our holiday event in Winnetka, IL for the last two years (and was our Santa at a previous organization I worked with several years ago as well). He is reliable, cheerful, works well with volunteers... and most important of all, he enjoys the job and is truly great with kids! Sign him up - you'll be glad you did.

What to expect

I can provide traditional Santa duties- sitting in a chair talking with children and making them feel excited and listened to, posing for pictures, handing out gifts, or can work a room with witty banter, greetings, etc.
