Nursery teacher gifts

Who do you normally buy gifts for? It's the end of nursery (school nursery/pre-school) for my 4 year old. They break up this week and she starts primary 1 in August.

Do you buy for their keyworker only or all the staff? To be honest I'd happily buy a small gift for all staff as they have really been wonderful and have stood out so much compared to the private nurseries we tried. However I wouldn't want to make other parents feel awful for buying just one gift / no gift if they went for keyworker only if I bought for everyone. What is the norm? Thanks!

I am a nursery nurse and personally for me a card addressed to your child's keyworker and or the whole staff would be enough. A simple act of gratitude is really nice and I think would make them really happy and feel appreciated. :)

How about something they can all share? Like chocolates or even some homemade biscuits for a personal touch. As @Flowerpower220394 it's probably more about the thought rather than the actual gifts.

I noticed on the wall at our nursery they have one of those "word cloud" canvases (you know the ones where all the random words are different sizes and colours?) - it has names of the staff and words that describe the nursery. No idea if they did it themselves or if it was given to them but that would make a great gift. They could display it or put it in the staff office.
Depends how much you were looking to spend x
