Should nannies buy birthday presents for the dads they work for?

I watch three kids for a very nice family with a mom and a dad. I have been working there for a little over a year. The dad%26#039;s birthday is on Monday and I don%26#039;t know if I should get him something!


I did purchase $18 in art supplies and with the kids made a large book with about eight pictures and stories by the kids. I helped them think of ideas and design the layout of the book. It%26#039;s not exactly professional looking, but there%26#039;s a lot of funny, cute, sentimental stuff in there.


I just don%26#039;t know what else to do for him. For the mom%26#039;s birthday back in October, I brought her flowers and a card. But she%26#039;s a woman so it seems different to me. I don%26#039;t know.

The book you made with the kids should be sufficient, and it was very nice of you. I wouldn%26#039;t get him anything else, except maybe card. I agree, her being a woman makes it different. Since he%26#039;s both your employer and a married man, it%26#039;s a good idea to keep it professional between the two of you.
Reply:From an etiquette standpoint and someone who has used a nanny in the past a card is all that is sufficient. If you go and purchase something you are crossing into grounds of it getting too personal. A card it saying %26quot;you care%26quot; and and that is all that is needed. You stated that you gave that wife some flowers and a card and that is appropriate. The gifting you did with the kids for their Father was quite appropriate and very thoughtful. Good question. A star for you.
Reply:I agree with the other posters here and say that a card is probably just right. Especially these days when in situations like these we need to avoid any impression of impropriety.
Reply:I agree, a card is enough, especially as he%26#039;ll know it was thanks to you the kids made the book.
Reply:I think a nice card would be sufficient.
Reply:maybe you should buy him a tie or a journal. nothing too expensive because it is unprofessional.
