DAYCARE gift-DH UPDATE
so of course I have been slammed at work and haven't gotten Bella's teacher a present.
What to get? She lives in East Rockaway, does anyone know a good day spa near there? frasada? something else.
I was thinking a facial or a massage?
and her other teacher, something smaller, but she lives in queens, what to get her?
help!
ETA: I adore this woman!
UPDATE:
So we have been going back and forth all day about this and DH thinks I am too much of a spenda-holic and me, well I want to appreciate what our daycare peeps do...
so what does he do...does he get a GC?
does he get a massage like I asked...?
NO
He goes and gets Lenox candlesticks for the main teacher and a precious moment and jewelry box for the other
I don't even know what to say.
I just don't.

Re: DAYCARE gift
how about a gift card?
Sephora
Bliss spa - she can use it towards a massage or else products
Amazon
barnes and noble
maybe chocolates for the other teacher or some products from the body shop.

Salon and Spa osio is in Oceanside, but it is right on the border of Oceanside and East Rockaway. I go there and love it!

Yes this place is great! It is across the street from the train station in Oceanside (last car). Frasada is also a good place as well. I like them both!
For the other teacher a gift card to a clothing store would be great (i.e. Gap, Banana, Ann Taylor, etc)

Re: DAYCARE gift
I think spa gc is the way to go, if you think she'll use it.
She can cash it in for manicures, pedicures if she's the type that doesn't like massages.
It really says "You took care of me & mine, so I want to take care of you."

Re: DAYCARE gift
I would get them both a GS at Red Door-Elizabeth Arden, one is in Garden City and one is in NY. Call them they have a list of spa's that are in the area if that doesn't suit them.
My mom goes to that spa and loves it!!
You can customize the GS, to any price. Your best bet would be manicure/pedicure.

Oh noooo!
Ok next time - don't ask. Just handle it & tell him afterwards.
Maybe he's saving the gc to the daycare workers who think he's hot?

Let him give it them. Also let him know candlesticks & a jewelry box reduces the hot factor tremendously.

I'm sure they're even more in love with him now. They'll love any gift from him. I wouldn't worry.

Holy crap! How could he do this to you????????? . They must be thinking well ohhhhhhkkkkkk now what should i do with these?
I guess your saving grace is they probably already know HE picked the stuff out.
Many hugs to you  .

Re: DAYCARE gift-DH UPDATE
I know, I know. And I can't even yell at him. I have only myself to blame. He really did try, and thinks it was brilliant. I guess I need to stop and get some gc's tonight!
