Daycare Christmas gifts
Need ideas. I'm new to this so I have no clue what to get. I asked today if I can bring cookies for the staff so I'm planning on bringing a cookie basket of two for the administrative staff. But she has 2 main teachers so I want to get them something nice. Ideas? What's the normal amount? I was thinking maybe coach wristlets and then a $25 gift card to target, figure everyone shops at target but I'm second guessing myself.

Daycare Christmas gifts
Last year, dd had only been in daycare a few months, so I did $25 Target GCs and made them each some peppermint bark and put it in a nice gift box.
This year - I am doing $50 Visa gift cards for each (there are 4 girls who work there).
For the owner, I am doing something more. A few nice gifts (maybe a scarf and Scentsy stuff) and a $50 gift card to get a massage at a place she likes.

Re: Daycare Christmas gifts
I give a gift card for $100 to the main teacher and if there is a full time assistant teacher at the time I give her $50 gift card.
In the afternoons there are like 100 different girls who rotate in and out of that room after the main teachers leave so I never get for them-it's too much and rarely the same person.
There is no owner as it's a corporate location so I don't have to worry about buying anything for the owner.

I only give GC. You don't really know their style or anything and I hate to get something that goes to waste.

Daycare Christmas gifts
I get my kids teachers $25 giftcards and a little something else (like hand sanitizer from Bath and Bodyworks). I asked a bunch of moms who send their kids there and that is the norm.

Re: Daycare Christmas gifts
This is a great thread! I have been thinking about this for DS's daycare teachers.

I've done gift cards and Williams-Sonoma hot chocolate. DS is at a new daycare this year so I may do the same.

Re: Daycare Christmas gifts
I own a paper décor business so I am going to do a banner for the center (to hang on the wall in the main area is my intention) and one of each of the kid's rooms and then small gift cards for the directors and teachers 
maybe a bottle of wine for the admins as well

Daycare Christmas gifts
For those who do gift cards is it a money card such as visa or to a particular store!
