Before the Visit

  • Have cameras or phones ready
  • Keep gifts hidden until Santa needs them
  • Let children settle in naturally
  • Make sure pets are secured if needed
  • Leave room for Santa to enter and greet everyone

Helpful Details to Share

  • Children’s names and ages
  • Preferred timing for photos, story, or surprise moment
  • Any shy children or special considerations
  • Parking or entrance details

FAMILY MEMORIES

The best visits become family stories.

Private Santa visits are often the moments families remember most — the surprised smiles, the whispered wishes, the photos, the laughter, and the feeling that Santa came just for them.


“He is incredibly gentle and patient with every child. He never rushes them. If a child is nervous, he calmly talks with them and lets them decide if they’d like to sit on his lap or simply stand beside him. He does such a beautiful job easing the fears of little ones who may be unsure at first.”

— Courtney Huff
