Teacher Appreciation Week Is Coming Up - Please come in if you send your child to Daycare:)

My DD has two teachers, she started this class in January and will be leaving it in June. She goes two days/week. Would you give $25 or $50 to her two teachers?

For Provider Appreciation Day we hand out roses to everyone.

If you are giving money I would go with $25 each.

It's usually the Fri before mother's day.

DS was part time 2x a week last year and I baked cookies (I was the only mom in his class that sent something in).

This year, I'm not sure what I'm going to do - he has numerous teachers throughout the day and week so I think I may just bake cookies again as to not leave anyone out. I may do flowers though instead because they are having muffins for moms that afternoon so it might be a lot of food.

DDs daycare is giving out muffins in the morning that Thurs and Fri for Mother's day. DD doesn't go in on Fri so I was planning on bringing cookies Thurs, but thinking it might be too much with the muffins too. Chat Icon

Maybe I will bring them in earlier in the week.

I'd go with 25 each.

last year i sent in an edible arrangement of roses for the staff. this year i think im going to send in cake pops or something cute for them. I'd rather not spend $50 or more on gifts. Ds is there 2days a week.

Same here.... plus my DS will only be there until the end of June for this year. I think I will get them either cake pops, bagels or donuts. Im going to ask them if they drink coffee and maybe get them the food and a box of joe or something. I am a teacher and I like when students/ parents show their appreciation to me and my work.

We give $25 gift cards to each teacher (DD has 2 and DS has 2) along with a card.

We also give to the floaters, but I think we will skip it because there seem to be so many of them these days.
