Thank you very much Tony for a great start to my Christmas Eve. Put a big smile on my face for the rest of the day. Your grandkids are adorable and so very polite. Please give your kitty a couple of boops from me

Santa did a fabulous job with the kids and adults at the party. He mingled with all our guests and everyone was very pleased with him. Will definately hire him again and refer him to friends and family for their events

What a great group of family, friends and colleagues you have. I'd like to wish you and your charming wife the happiest holidays seasons and a very Merry Christmas. I look forward to next year

Santa was a wonderful addition to our annual Christmas party. Children young and old were delighted. What I was most surprised at was the true love of children and Christmas. Santa asked a lot of questions to the children as well as answered. No one was rushed. Santa was prompt to start but also took his time staying more than requested. Communication was outstanding.
Response from Smart Car Santa:
Thank you for such a glowing review! You make it so easy to visit with such a lovely home that has a very warm and inviting atmosphere to it. Let's not forget to mention your open and accepting family and friends. Really great people and a ton of fun. The only thing I feel bad about is I never got to shoot a couple baskets with your son. Happy New Year 🎄🎅🎄
We had a lovely time with Smart Car Santa! He was engaging and patient with all the guests, children and adults alike. He was cool, composed and flexible when our timing got a little off track. The kids were enchanted and starstruck. Santa really brought the magic to the party. He was professional and helpful in the planning stages as well- all around a great person and performer.
Response from Smart Car Santa:
Hey Sam, I'm so glad I could make it such a memorable time for everyone. Perfect spot with the stream train running in the background, picturesque to say the least. Next year will be epic, count on it. Much love to every one in your group that put on such a stellar event. You all care so much and it shows 💝

Santa went above and beyond for our event. He had a magic walking stick, a bag of treats and he read The Night Before Christmas to the children assembled twice, which was his own idea! He looked like the ideal Santa and was incredibly patient with all of the children and the adults who came by. Our patrons were so happy. I would say that this Santa really could not have been better. He showed up early and stayed past what was necessary and we will definitely be booking him again next year.
Response from Smart Car Santa:
Hi Ellen, thank you so much. What a beautiful, town, library and a warm inviting Santa space you have. It's the perfect spot to read "Twas the Night Before Christmas". I'd love to come back next year! You are penciled in, just let me know when and I'm there! I'm coming early next year so I can get to a wonderful pastry shop down the road and Santa can get some cookies.
Merry Christmas and stay jolly
Santa 🎄🎅🎄
Smart Car Santa was just the Best! He was kind, courteous and had a great sense of humor and fun. He was a good listener and helped guests feel comfortable as they had their pictures taken. One woman, said she just couldn't believe how she felt when she saw his reflection in the LR mirror as he came into the house from the porch. She screamed "It's Santa Claus" and said she felt like a 5 year girl! I highly recommend this Santa and hope to have him back next year. Truly, he was a Big Hit! Many, many thanks.
Response from Smart Car Santa:
Oh Linda, the pleasure was all mine! Everyone was just lovely and welcoming. I'm really glad I could transport some of your friends back to their childhoods. It means a lot to be able to do that with adults and not just children. I'll be reaching out to you around August so you get first crack at a time of your choosing. Thank you so much for a wonderful time

PS thank you for the gift bag, it came in handy on the car ride 💝
Smart Car Santa was a pleasure to deal with- communication was seamless, he was punctual, cooperative and went above and beyond adding a special element of warmth and spirit of the season to our annual Christmas Eve gathering. He went so far as to read a story to the children, hand out gifts, participate in our caroling, and artfully manage adult banter with family and friends. We were so impressed we booked him then and there for the following year.
Response from Smart Car Santa:
Thank you so much Steven, it was one of my highlights of the holiday season. Everyone at your gathering was so friendly, warm and inviting. The second year was even better because I knew everyone. I look forward to many more Christmas Eve adventures with you and your loved ones
Stay jolly
🎅🎄
Smart Car Santa was the highlight of our event! We hosted our first company giveback and decided to hire a Santa for our customers along with professional pictures they can take for the holidays. We found Gigsalad, and once we put through the request in, Smart car Santa was the only one that stood out to us with his service and expertise. He was determined to drive from CT all the way down to Long Island for our event and it was well worth it. Everyone loved Santa! We have tons of messages of how he was "The Best Santa!" and even made a child with ASD feel so comfortable that the mom had tears of joy! It was an unforgettable night that the children will never forget and now look forward to every year. We will be reaching out only to Smart Car Santa for future bookings! Thank you Dave for making our 1st event ever so special.

Response from Smart Car Santa:
Jerome, Vanisha, I can't tell you what a great time I had. It really warmed my soul. I've told many people about it, so many that they thought I was promoting for YOU! Your family and friends were caring and very helpful making this such an easy event. Thank you so much and I look forward to visiting in the future
Santa 🎅💝(Dave)
Santa was very personable. He took lots of time with each grandchild and even gave them coins from all over the world. They loved the stories he read.
Santa stayed more than the time I paid for and was very professional.
I would hire him again.
Response from Smart Car Santa:
Thank you Nancy, the time flew by like leaves that before the wild hurricane fly. Your family reminded me of my family with the playful banter. Until next year, happy holidays 🎅💝
Dave “Santa” is amazing with children and even adults! Dave is thoughtful, punctual, reliable, friendly, witty and has great stories to share with us all! Everyone at our Santa event raved about Dave and how amazing he was with all of the children! Parents and volunteers all had a great time watching Dave interact with all the children and putting a smile on their faces!
Response from Smart Car Santa:
Thank you so much Jessie. You made it so easy for me with such a well organized event. Everyone was so nice, friendly and helpful. I really have to thank you again for having me as it made me look at some things in a whole new light. Learning a good thing. Nay, it's a GREAT thing. I look forward to next year 💝
Dave was an excellent addition to our Christmas Party! Great with the kids, friendly, punctual and professional!
Response from Smart Car Santa:
Thank you Alyson, you throw a great event. I look forward to next year's. Have a wonderful holiday season 💝
Hosted a holiday party and Santa was amazing! He was not only professional but was also willing to go the extra mile to make it a really special moment for the kids and the adults. The kids talked about him for the rest of the night and the memories will last a life time!! I would recommend him 1,000 times over!
Response from Smart Car Santa:
Thank you Charles 💝 What a great family, and I also mean the closeness of your family of friends as well. I'm so glad that you have them all in your families lives. Have a very happy, wonderful holiday season and thank you so much for sharing me in it. Stay jolly 💝🎅
See you next year🎄
I had a Christmas event at my Boost Mobile store, Smart Car Santa was amazing with all the kids. He really made their day. He helped me pass out gifts and even greeted my customers at the door. I will definitely call him back next year.
Response from Smart Car Santa:
Thank you so much. You have a wonderful crew working for you and family helping out. Thanks so much for letting me help out. Happiest Holidays and I hope your New Year is prosperous. Until next year 🎄🎅👍

Wonderful!
Response from Smart Car Santa:
Great gig, super easy and very communicative. Pleasure to work with.
Santa Steve was AMAZING !
He was worth every penny! But seeing all the kids experience a real life Santa was PRICELESS!
We’ll do it again next year! Our new tradition
Myself and all my guests were very happy that I chose to hire Santa. He did a great job, kids and adults had a blast! Highly recommended!
Response from Smart Car Santa:
Thank you so much Billy. I loved seeing all the kids at the front window as I was walking up, so adorable. You have a great crew of family and friends surrounding you. Happiest holidays to you and your family from Santa. Stay jolly 🎄🎅
