I think a good suggestion would be to invite nanny out to a family dinner somewhere with you and the kiddos. Perhaps a fun pizza place with games and tons of fun!

Or you can have a bar-b-que in your backyard one day and ask nanny if she would like to join you and your family.

These tokens of thought will be well appreciated.

Good luck. ~

But for me, fresh flowers, especially roses or Peonies would be nice.

Another idea is a gift card for Barnes and Noble so she can get a book or magazines or something to "get lost" in.

Another idea, if she likes to cook is a cooking class somewhere like Sur la Table or a gift card to them or Williams Sonoma. I had a mom surprise me with a West Elm gift card one day and it was such a fun surprise.

Disliking scented lotions and bath junk has nothing to do with a crappy immune system. How rude!
