Best Gift For Daycare Provider
Handwritten Card
Nothing gives all the feels like a handwritten card.
Take it from me, a daycare provider wants their hard work to be acknowledged. And it is hard work.
Don’t be surprised if she cries a little.
Have Your Kiddo Make Something
Your kiddo can color a picture or write a sweet little note and your daycare provider will turn into a pile of mush.
Flowers
Get her a lovely bouquet. She will smile every time she looks at them.
Treats
If you know her favorite treats, go with those! Every woman needs a stash of her favorite treats.
However, if you are looking for a new treat, try Lindor Chocolate Truffles.
Go the extra mile with Godiva Truffles. Girl, they are heavenly.
Digital Picture Frame
She will love this digital picture frame (and you will too so put one in the cart for yourself).
It is so easy to use. She can load pictures to it directly from her phone.
Water Bottle
Help her stay hydrated while she is running after kids with a great water bottle or cup.
These are all insulated and fit in cup holders.
I do love the BruMate one the best since I find it to be the most leakproof.

A best friend of every woman – a Yeti tumbler.
Her coffee or tea will stay hot to the last drop while she's running after the kids.

Another option to make her home smell good is an essential oils diffuser.
Lip Balm
EOS has great lip balms that are cheap. The vanilla one is my favorite.
Laneige has an incredible lip sleep mask that can be used as a lip balm. It is so hydrating!
It costs a little bit more but the container lasts forever.

She will be smelling her best with a new bottle of fragrance.
If you know what she likes, get her that.
