When families gather during the holidays, they’re not just celebrating the season—they’re celebrating each other. A visit from Santa Jim brings warmth, wonder, and the magic of connection into your home, making your gathering truly unforgettable.

Whether you’re hosting a small, intimate evening with your children or inviting generations of loved ones to celebrate together, Santa Jim’s visit adds a layer of delight and tradition that will be cherished for years to come.

🎅 What Happens During a Visit?

Each family gathering is unique, and Santa Jim tailors every experience to your needs. A typical visit includes:

  • A Grand Entrance – Santa arrives in full costume, jolly and warm, ready to bring smiles from the moment the door opens.
  • Personalized Greetings – I do my homework! With a little help from you beforehand, I can greet children and family members by name—and even mention a few fun facts about their year.
  • Storytelling & Songs – I’ll share a heartwarming Christmas story—some traditional, some original—designed to enchant the young and stir memories in the young at heart. Add in a festive carol or two for a sing-along moment that brings everyone closer.
  • The Nice List Ceremony (Optional) – Celebrate the good choices and big hearts in your family with a special recognition moment. Certificates, medallions, or a few words from Santa can reinforce kindness, courage, and growth.
  • Photo Time – Whether you have a professional photographer on hand or just your phone camera, we’ll create beautiful, natural photo opportunities—candid and posed.
  • Gift Delivery (Optional) – If you’d like, I can hand out presents you provide, adding surprise and sparkle to the moment.

🏡 Designed for Any Home

Whether you’re in a cozy apartment, a country farmhouse, or hosting an extended family reunion at a rented lodge, I bring the same warmth and professionalism to every visit. I adjust my pacing, voice, and presence based on your family’s needs—from gentle and soothing for toddlers to playful and respectful with teens and seniors.

💖 More Than Just a Visit—It’s a Gift of Connection

As a professional Santa since 2012 and a lifelong storyteller, I believe in more than just putting on a red suit. Every visit is a chance to:

  • Foster a deeper sense of joy and belief
  • Help children feel seen, heard, and encouraged
  • Rekindle the magic of Christmas for grown-ups, too
  • Create traditions your family will carry forward

Many families invite me back year after year. Watching your children grow, celebrating new milestones, and becoming a thread in your holiday traditions is the greatest honor of this work.

📅 Plan Your Visit Early

My calendar fills quickly from early November through Christmas Eve. Weekends and evenings are especially popular. If you’d like to schedule a Family Gathering visit—especially one involving gift deliveries or custom storytelling—please reach out early.

🎁 Add-On Magic: Keepsakes & Surprises

You can add special touches to your visit, including:

  • Nice List Certificates & Medallions
  • Handwritten Letters from Santa
  • Special Storytime Themes (faith-based, cultural, or magical tales)
  • Virtual Pre-Visit “Santa Call” to build anticipation

Let’s co-create a visit that’s as unique as your family.

📍 Serving Families Across Western Washington

I travel throughout Snohomish and King Counties, and as far as Lynden, Cle Elum, the Kitsap Peninsula, and Gig Harbor. If you’re outside that range, let’s talk—I may be able to accommodate or offer a Santa Talks virtual visit.
