Overview
I'm a real bearded Santa. I have 7 years experience coordinating with corporate event planners. I also do private parties, day cares, parades and home visits. I love home visits because of the one on one with children and babies. I am the official Santa of the Wichita Toy Run, an annual event held in November to donate toys for Toys for Tots and Salvation Army. I am a graduate of School of Santa's. I would love to talk to you about your event.

Santa was good but a little too regimented. We liked his magic trick. We could’ve done without the book.

Response from The Jolly Old Elf Wichita:
Didn't get alot of detail on the visit asked about reading story before hand. Trying to give value for the cost of event

Santa was exactly what I wanted and expected!
He looked authentic with clothing and beard. Read a story to the kids and did some magic.
He kept in contact with me before my event and understood my expectations. I had gifts that he put in his Santa bag and handed out to the children and adults.
Will absolutely use again!

Best Santa we have had! We have been having Santa come to our home for our annual Christmas party for the last 20 years, and this is the best and we have invited him back for several years.

The Jolly Old Elf has become a staple at our Christmas party with friends. He is so gentle with the kids and takes his time with each but never pushes. I love that he carries on a conversation with each before asking what they want. Kids and adults all love him! I highly recommend him as Santa!

Santa was so great with everyone in attendance at our corporate event. Didn't matter if you were a child or adult he made everyone feel special. We will be bringing back for future events. Highly recommend to anyone looking to bring back the spirit of Christmas we all know and love.

What a fantastic experience for our patrons! He payed such careful and close attention to each child. He was professional, and kids and parents had a great time.
It is so evident he's put not only a financial investment into being Santa with beautiful clothes, but he invests so much of himself in bringing the holiday spirit. I am so excited to work with him again!

I have hired this Santa for multiple years and cannot recommend him enough. The kids both young and old have a great time interacting with him. His attire is phenomenal, you can tell immediately how much time and effort he puts in to make your t8me with him magical.

Bar far, the best Santa there is. Our family really enjoys having him in our home each year. We love how personal he is with each child and adult and he makes it fun as well. Thank you Santa for all you do for our family! We look forward to seeing you again in 2024!

The BEST Santa around! He made the visit so personal for my son, and he’s only 11 months! The outfit, the real beard, and the true magic of Santa and Christmas all rolled up into one guy!

What to Expect
I can plan the event to your requests.
I take Christmas wish lists from the kids. I can walk around your event talking to all the guests. Home visits you can leave the presents in a pre-determined location and I enter with the presents in a bag and hand out to the attendees. I have a large variety of books that I can read to the children, we can go over before the event what book you would like read. Of course pictures with Santa at all events.
About
I am a full time registered nurse for the last 30 years. I will be retiring in a couple of years. I love being Santa during the holidays, it's wonderful to be able to see the excitement on the faces of children when they come to see Santa.
I am reliable, I reconfirm times a few days before the visit and I show up on time. I coordinate with the manager, event planner or on a home visit the customer/parent, on what will be provided by the event and what I will provide. Home visits or smaller events I like to have the names and ages of the children.
At this time I set up visits in the late afternoon and evenings during the week and all day on the weekends. My wife is available to be Mrs. Claus for an additional fee.
Additional Booking Notes
I would need to have a bench or a chair with no arms to sit in when taking the wish lists and photos.
