Christmas present for CM ??

Hi all,

DS started going to a lovely CM a few months back and since this is my first time with a CM I have no idea what the expectations are for Christmas... Do we get her a gift? She has 2 lovely DCs who absolutely love my DS.... should I also be getting something for them?
If yes, I would also appreciate some gift ideas...

TIA :)

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

I love it if a parent gets something for my DD, but nothing is expected.

Some of my families give a little gift to my children, such as a book or a selection box. As HSMM says, it is appreciated but not expected. My gift suggestions would be: chocolate, novelty scarf/mittens/socks, anything with their name on it (pencil case, mug, lunchbox), crayons, felt tip pens, maybe bubble bath. Depends on the age/gender of the children of course. HTH.
