[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just do your job. Show up on time, be somewhat pleasant, clean up after yourself and the kids, don't bring drama to work. I don't want gifts from my nanny. [/quote]

I do all of this and more by default.  I would also like to do something to let her know that I appreciate how hard she works to be an amazing boss to me and an amazing mom to my charges.  These things impact me regularly and I want her to know that her effort is noticed and valued.[/quote]

While I agree with others that you don't need to do anything for your MB, I'm not going to talk you out of it because it sounds like you *want* to do something nice for her. If you want to do something nice for someone, you should, no matter who the person is. The world would be a nicer place if there were more thoughtful people like you, OP.

I think a few hours of babysitting is a nice idea, but it could get expensive if you aren't specific about how many hours and when. For example, maybe offer a 2-3 hour gift certificate for her to go to happy hour with her friends or have a nice dinner out with her DH.

I'm a single mom and my nanny occasionally makes dinner for us and that always is a wonderful gift. It's nothing fancy, just a soup or casserole or simple pasta dish. But it gives me a little extra time with my DD on a random evening and that is the most thoughtful thing I can think of.[/quote]
