my friend took my dd one day when I had to work- my dd and her dd play really well together and they really only call someone when they need feeding. We do lots of play dates at each others houses and the girls are no problem at all.
I offered to take her for a pedicure as a thank you, she won't take money as she says it is easier to have my dd as then her dd has a playmate.
She is a lovely person.
We went for pedicures and had a great chat. She also decided to get her eyebrows and upper lip done. She said she would pay for them, but I said it was my treat.
Would you have paid or everything, or just the pedicure? I don't mind paying, I actually thought I would thank her by getting more than just the pedicure, i just wondered what others think. Cheers!

I think your friend is lovely for having your DD, not wanting any payment and not taking advantage by expecting you to pay for her extras.

I think you're lovely for insisting on paying for her extras. There are so many threads about people who take the piss out of their friends over childcare and general who-pays-for-what, I'd like to be friends with both you and your friend, please!
