childish, or possibly too time consuming/personal. I don't think it's weird that you at want to give her a card or a small treat. If I liked my mb I may have done something for her.

You really think it's strange? I send cards to my family/ friends on Mother's Day.. Maybe I'm the odd one out for giving cards?


Yes, that's weird.


I agree - it's weird. Your employer, your friends and anyone in your family aside from YOUR mother is not your mother! (Possible exception for grandmothers). Mother's Day celebrated the relationships of motherhood!

Everyone has a different relationship with her MB! I'm so sick of everyone thinking anything beyond a empoyer relationship is weird or abnormal.




It's not about a nanny's relationship with their MB - it's about anyone but the children or spouse giving any mother anything for mother's day! I have never, not would I ever think to give anyone by my mother and grandmother a Mother's Day card! Should I give cards to all of my friends and family members who are mothers? Do you see many printed Mother's Day cards that read, "To Mother from your child's nanny"?!!!!

It's not weird at all. I would love to get a card from our nanny! Go for it, OP!

I made cookies with my charges for Mother's Day. I am not a mother, so I don't expect anything from my MB, nor would I if I had kids.

Happy Mother's Day.

Although I hope it's from the kids and not you. It's weird to give random people who happen to be mothers a card celebrating their motherhood.
