Nurse's Thank You Baskets
Baby Boy will be here any time now so I busted my butt into high gear and am trying to get all the things done!
I’ve seen a few people do these fun baskets to give to the nurses at the hospital and doctor’s office and it inspired me to do the same! I wanted to show them my appreciation and plus…they’re bound to like me a little more if I bribe them, right 🤪?! I found everything on Amazon & Target - and linked it all up for ya! I also put together a little step by step tutorial at the bottom of this post to show you how I put them together!
I did 4 baskets total. One for my doctors office and 3 for the nurses at the hospital. I’ll give one to the shift when I first get to the hospital and then will continue to give another basket to each shift I have during my stay. That way everyone gets their fair share! They were actually way easier to put together than I imagined and it was fun finding ALL the blue things!!
I hadn’t done this with Boss or Kolly and it’s definitely not a necessity so don’t feel like you have to do this but I know they definitely appreciate us showing them that we appreciate them!
Nurse's Thank You Baskets
Start with an empty basket
Find ya some cute baskets! & add in some cute tissue paper! I did blue themed baskets since I’m having a boy! But you can do pink for a girl or white/grey for neutral!
After that is where you can really get creative! I started looking into anything blue, drinks, snacks, candy, gum, chapstick - so many options!
Drinks and Snacks
I added in a bunch of different drink options! I wanted to make sure the baskets had a wide variety to hopefully appeal to everyone!
And then snack wise, I tried to find some semi-healthy treats that would fuel them - pretzel crisps, chex mix, pop chips, almonds, and clif bars!
More Treats!
After that, I sprinkled in some sweet treats like gum, Rice Krispie treats, & york peppermint patties! I also threw in some chapsticks & hair ties!
And last but not least, I stuffed in some mini bottles of Malibu for them to always remember me 😉 and Lord knows they need to treat themselves after those long 12 hour shifts!
These were so fun to make and I love that you can get as creative as you want with them or leave them super simple! Either way, the nurses will love ya for it!
xoxo
