WWCND?

One of my friends keeps Ethan the three days a week that I work. We were friends before this arrangement, and we regularly do things with her and her husband, but we don't usually exchange any sort of Christmas gift. 

If she was a non-friend sitter or a daycare worker, I would be getting her a Christmas bonus/gift, so I want to do something. I just don't want them to feel like they are then obligated  to get us something since we're all friends. I want so somehow make it clear that this is a "Thank you for being so amazing with my kid" present. 

Am I over thinking this?

  • Gift card inside a card with "Thank you for being so amazing with my kid" written in it?

  • At the bottom of the card, add "No tagbacks."

  • I'd just say "I know we don't exchange gifts; I just wanted to get you a little something to let you know I appreciate your caring for Ethan."

  • I would make it from Ethan and when you give it to her just say thanks for take such good care of him.

  • As a spinoff of this, what should I buy for Ryker's daycare workers. There are 3. One also babysits him when we go out at our home, so I feel like I should get her something bigger but then I worry about alienating the others. Sorry to TJ, but I assume another post about this topic may make bethie's head explode.

    Can you give them all something at daycare and then give her the something extra the next time she watches him? Then the others wouldn't know or be offended.

  • that could work. Now I just need to find a reason for her to babysit.
