I typically give the family a photo album of pics I've taken over the years. Usually the parents have never seen these pics and the moms almost always cry when I give it to them.

This happened recently with me. It ended due to my employers moving for a job. I made a book from Shutterfly (groove book is much cheaper) with pictures I took of my charge throughout our time together. They really loved it. I received a bonus ( for staying until the end) and a framed picture of my charge. I would do something similar.

You sound like a loving nanny OP. Worth your weight in gold definitely.

I say get him the picture but also a book too. Perhaps something about the bond that nannies have with the children they watch.

The photo of you two is perfect. Bless you for caring so much.

My position with my NF ended on Friday. I was with them for almost a year, and we are parting on very good terms. We are meeting up later this week for a celebratory lunch, and I'm wondering if I should get him a little gift? He's turning 3 in a month, and I'm not sure if I should just wait and send him something for his birthday (or nothing at all?). I could get him a framed picture of us. For Christmas I bought him a book, which he absolutely adored.
