Nursery gifts?

DD (1yo) is in a lovely nursery (approx 3-4 days/wk since April)and staff v good. They have stayed open the last week despite facing severe weather& travel hassles themselves.In general v happy and feel fortunate to have her there.

I want to get them something small for Christmas. How much is appropriate to spend? I truelly think whatever they get paid is not enought for looking after our wee ones.

Any suggestions? Don't want to be over the top & will probably include a bit of home baking too.

Cheers.

Individual gifts are better than one whole, so something like vouchers, choclate, mugs, photo frames, e.t.c always go down well at my nursery. We get a hundred boxes of chocolates and bottles of wine (i have 4 bottles of wine sitting at home because i don't drink) mostly though.

I am prob going to bake something yummy for the staff in my DS's baby room to share and prob get a small something for his keyworker like £10-15 smellies set from boots or boots vouchers so she can buy herself. Like you i think they do a great job looking after our little ones and cant get paid much so i am happy to show appreciation at xmas.

Thanks for the tips. Just wanted a ball park figure & something that is vaguely useful vs just sits on shelf. So good point bout the wine.

Will get baking &some goodies from Body shop/ boots.

Ho ho ho to all!
