Santa Claus is important! Kids will always remember a great experience — or a bad one — with ol' Saint Nick. I work to make every encounter memorable and exciting.

From late November until Christmas Day, I become the Real Santa — LIVE. I started my business to do home visits, to give a unique alternative to taking the kids to the mall to stand in line for a mediocre picture. Now, families could get pictures of Santa with their kids by their own tree, their own fireplace. It proved a very successful idea. As word spread, though, I began receiving offers for larger and longer events. I take these on a case-by-case basis.

Here's what helps me stand out: I'm genuinely Santa-sized, with a REAL white beard and hair, a beautiful Santa outfit with real fur-trimmed boots. I'm actually jolly, too! More than that, though, I've been a professional speaker for many years, so I know how to be personable and how to think on my feet. I love talking to children and seeing their wonder and awe as they share their Christmas wishes. It's the best job in the world.

You can certainly find cheaper Santas. But like Hallmark says, "When you care enough to send the very best..."
