Santa Doug Santa Claus from Westland, MI

I am a real bearded Santa and as a model and representative of the jolly old elf himself, I take my appearance and presentation seriously. I am a retired middle school English grammar teacher and great with children of all ages. It was my love of children that drew me into teaching and so inspired me to become a Santa Claus. I am warm and friendly to everyone I meet while portraying Santa and throughout the year. As a professional Santa, my goal is to brighten your Christmas and Holiday Events, and bring good cheer to your Home, Private Parties, Office Parties, and Corporate and Community Events. I will star in your photo shoots, and even attend your Christmas in July events. I'm all in for meet and greets, sing along, and I love a good reading of "The Night Before Christmas."

Santa Doug captivated our family's attention from the moment he walked into the room. He was kind, professional and had the perfect answers to every single one of each child's questions about Santa and Christmas. He was amazing to watch! The gorgeous pictures our son and nephews had taken with Santa Doug were an added bonus. We can't wait to visit him again next Christmas. Thank you for a one-of-a-kind Santa experience!
