Families who hire a Santa Claus in Port St. Lucie for a visit at home get a knock at the front door and a Santa who sits down with the children by their own tree.
What to Expect From a Santa Home Visit in Port St. Lucie
He greets the children, hears each wish list and sits for pictures beside the tree in your family room. He is holding a strap of sleigh bells, with a gold key on a chain, so the kids can see the suit, the beard and the props up close. The visit lasts for the time you booked, from the first hello to the last picture.
If you want Santa to hand each child a present, have the gifts labeled and kept together near the door so he can pick them up as the children come in.
A shy child can watch from a parent’s lap until they feel ready to sit with him. The dog or the cat is happier in another room while the pictures are being taken.
Most visits happen in the family room, where the tree, the couch and the sliding glass doors already sit together. When more people want to watch, the screened lanai off that room gives the extra family members a place to stand without crowding the children.
Getting the House Ready for a Santa House Call
Santa wears the full suit in every season, so an afternoon visit in Port St. Lucie works best in an air-conditioned room or a shaded part of the lanai. After sunset the back patio is comfortable for pictures, and a porch light helps him find the front door.
For a condo on Hutchinson Island, Santa comes through the lobby or the front desk and then the elevator. It helps to tell us which entrance the family uses so he reaches the right floor on time.
A grown-up should answer the door, and we send a short text before he knocks. If your neighborhood has a gatehouse or a call box, add Santa’s name to the guest list or share the gate code when you call.
When relatives are visiting for Christmas week, choose a time after everyone has arrived so grandparents and cousins can be in the pictures. Families who want a longer session for portraits can book Santa photos on a separate visit.
