Santa Dan visited our childcare centre, and the experience was truly magical for the children. Upon arriving, he prepared himself by gently jingling his bells while the children gathered and got ready to sit. Once everyone was settled, Santa Dan entered with the biggest smile and a joyful “Ho, ho, ho!”
He interacted beautifully with all of the children, speaking in a calm, warm manner filled with excitement and joy. Santa Dan showed real life photos of reindeer, asked engaging questions, and read a wonderful story to the group. He also gifted each child a small red pom pom to place on their nose like Rudolph, which they were thrilled to take home.
His engagement with the children was incredibly professional and thoughtful. We could not have asked for a better experience. The children were extremely happy, and they smiled throughout the entire visit.
We cant wait for Santa Dan to come back and visit us next year!

Santa Dan was an absolute joy to have at our Intergenerational Solstice Celebration at Wabano Aboriginal Health Centre. From the moment he arrived, he brought warmth, kindness, and genuine care to our community space. His presence was calm, respectful, and engaging, making children, families, and Elders alike feel comfortable and welcomed.
Santa Dan took the time to interact meaningfully with each child and family offering patience, attentiveness, and heartfelt conversation rather than rushing through the experience. His approach aligned beautifully with our community values of respect, inclusivity, and connection. It was clear that this was more than a performance it was an authentic act of service and generosity.
The joy and excitement he created were evident in the smiles, laughter, and lasting memories shared throughout the evening.
We are truly grateful to Santa Dan for sharing his time and spirit with our community. He played a meaningful role in making our Solstice celebration memorable, and we would warmly recommend his services to any organization or family looking for a compassionate, professional, and heartfelt Santa experience.

Santa Dan is absolutely wonderful! He volunteered his time to play Santa at our Holiday Party for Orchard Walk Retirement Community in Greely and was the hit of the party.
He brought joy and laughter to all the residents and family members, engaged with them one-on-one, took pictures, made jokes and even let the kids ring his Jingle Bells.
He made every resident feel the magic of Christmas with his jolly smile and cheerful expressions and took the time to meet residents around the building and bring some joy to staff.
He is a spirited man who looks the part of Santa and is 100% worthwhile to have at your event.
Thank You Santa Dan! You brought so much Christmas Cheer and Joy to our retirement home. Happy Holidays!
From all of us at Orchard Walk Retirement Community
Thanks so much,

Santa Dan has called my kids on Christmas Eve two years in a row now and they love it so much! He does a wonderful job customizing the conversation to what the kids asked for and calling them all by name. They were jumping up and down through the entire call and when Santa said he was on his way, they all ran upstairs and put themselves to bed. Santa Dan offers such a wonderful family experience. Highly recommend!
