"The experience was so beyond our expectations. What you do changes the life of a child! from the bottom of our hearts, 'thank you'!" - Brittany v. "Best Santa - Hands Down! I had an event for my photography clients using Carl as Santa, he was AMAZING! ... He was wonderful with all the children (30), even the ones who weren't sure eventually sat on his knee creating some sweet memories for the children and parents. Even my 3 year old who is normally terrified of Santa or any other characters loved Carl and jumped right on his lap for a photo and a hug! He paid close attention to every child making each one feel special. Extremely kind and professional. I would love to have him back year after year!!" -- Ashley W.
"It's the REAL Santa!", my daughter screamed excitedly to her brother as soon as she opened the door and I breathed a sigh of relief. I'd spent a lot of time searching online for an authentic Santa-- as I did not want a skinny guy, with a cheap stick-on beard, wearing a shabby suit showing up and ruining the magic for my children. I needn't have worried, as Santa was everything (and more) that we could have hoped for. Pretty much the only thing he didn't do was land on our roof and make his entrance coming down the chimney!!! He told the kids things that only Santa could know (paying meticulous attention to the details about that children that he'd asked for beforehand) and he also had answers for all the usual - and obscure - questions that kids ask Santa. We'll definitely be booking the real Santa again this year! - Allison H.
"If you want that personalized experience, look no further. House Calls by S. Claus took the time to find out little tidbits about our children-- their likes, dislikes (my son is not a big fan of eating vegetables!) and how they were behaving this year. When we visited Santa, it was all about our kids. My children's eyes were wide with amazement as Santa talked about them! He knew everything! In fact, our son reported on his daddy as well, as Santa seemed to know about him, too! House Calls by S.Claus truly made this our most magical time with Santa!" -- Lena G.
"He made getting that perfect holiday picture easy. He was amazing with our newborn-- patient, gentle and jolly. There is no other Santa!" - Christie D.
"Carl was utterly incredible as Santa Clause. He know how to work with all ages as part of the experience. He is amazing looking as Santa and plays the part professional. We will be hiring him again for our next's year celebration. Plus we hired Mrs. Clause who added a new dimension to the party." - Jeff C.
"Carl Skenes was great with the children and the adults. He was willing to read to the children after he had listened to their Christmas wishes. He was personable with parents. he was flexible with our "on the fly" photo requests and changing the order of our event agenda. He Joked and made our event very special. The parents were impressed with the time and effort he gave every child that came to see him. We will definitely book earlier next year to assure we can get Carl." - Karen L.
"Santa was wonderful. We had over 30 children all excited and on sugar overload. Santa handled them all perfectly and personally." - Kim E.
