To write a thank you note in the Chrsitmas card for dd1's nursery teachers?

[bytheMoonlight]

Or should I save it for the end of term Thank you card, when she moves up to reception?

They have really helped dd1 settle over the past year, it's a very loving enviroment and dd1 has flourished.

They have also helpe me push a health issue recently which was invaluable.

So Christmas card or end of year card?

Both? I mean they're roughly 6 months apart so it makes sense.

Both? I'm struggling what to say in one!!!

Not struggling because I can't think of things to say (there are many things to praise, struggling because I don't want it to sound creepy and ott)

If you write from the heart (i.e. what you're feeling), I doubt very much it will come across as creepy or ott. HTH x

I wrote a few letters to my children's nursery, thanking them for their hard work and highlighting areas they did really well in, whilst they were there.

My thinking is that people often only get in touch when something is wrong, and people hardly ever hear about the positives that they do.

They were all appreciated. I also gave cards and things at Christmas and a final 'thank you' letter when they left.

She seems to have improved all round tbh. I think she's better at being around other children but not sure how to phrase that

Just say what you said in your OP: 'Thank you so much for helping DD settle in and flourish this term.'

It's up to you, I think it's a lovely thing to even think of and that her teachers will be grateful either way.

I'd do both too.

By the time she's ready to move up to Reception she will have come along so much more than she already has done.

Just thank them for taking such good care of her, tell them how much she enjoys coming to nursery... It won't come across as OTT, the teachers will be really touched to now how much you appreciate them.

Teachers do have a genuine fondness/love for the children they teach. And it makes you feel really proud of what you do with them to know that it is appreciated. I've had some lovely worded card and letters and I treasure them all.
