I’m Casey, also known as The Sunshine Santa! I’m a certified K-12 teacher and coach with over 10 years of experience working with kids from kindergarten through high school. I bring warmth, professionalism, and true holiday spirit to every event. My beard is real, my suit is professional grade, and my jolly cheeks fit the part! I offer home visits, story time, corporate parties, parades, photo shoots, and more. Mrs. Claus often joins me to spread joy and Christmas magic across the Sunshine State! I look forward to bringing the magic of Christmas to your event.

January 12, 2026The Sunshine Santa is the absolute best. We hired them for a private family party and they were wonderful with our children! The kids pulled on Santa’s beard and were so excited to realize that it was real. If you’re looking for a very real looking Santa, this is your guy! Mrs. Clause is wonderful as well.
Thank you both for making our holidays special.

December 22, 2025Santa and Mrs. Clause did an awesome job at our company holiday party last night. They kept the children engaged by reading stories to them and of course taking photos with everyone. They were a great addition to the holiday party and I would highly recommend them.

December 15, 2025We hosted them at three of our retail store locations for families and they were a huge hit. Arrived on-time, dressed and brought the magic to the children of Santa and Mrs Claus! We were delighted and will be rebooking with them again for next season!

December 3, 2025Santa provider an awesome video of encouragement to my 4 year old. He complimented her on how well she’s doing in her karate, which she loves! He also told her to be sure she is working on her listening skills with mommy & daddy.

When you book The Sunshine Santa, you’re inviting a professional, family-friendly Santa experience filled with warmth, laughter, and holiday magic. I arrive on time, in a professional-grade suit, with a real beard and plenty of Christmas cheer.
Each visit is tailored to your event — from cozy home visits and story time to corporate gatherings and community celebrations. I take time to engage with every guest, pose for photos, and make each moment feel special. I can speak on the history of Santa, the elves, the reindeer, and Mrs. Claus, sharing stories that bring Christmas traditions to life.
I also offer FaceTime calls and personalized video messages, perfect for kids who might need a little reminder to stay off the naughty list!
As a certified K–12 teacher, coach, and parent, I’ve spent over a decade working with children from kindergarten through high school. I also played Division I college football, where I learned the value of teamwork, dedication, and showing up with heart — lessons I now bring to every Santa appearance.
I understand how important it is to keep the magic of Christmas alive for children and families alike. My beard is real, and my spirit is genuine. Whether it’s an in-home visit or a corporate celebration, I make it my goal to bring joy, laughter, and lasting memories to every occasion.
Mrs. Claus often joins me, adding her own warmth and sparkle to the festivities. Together, we create moments that remind everyone — young and old — that the magic of Christmas is real.
