I think it's a nice idea. My clients often get muffins, toast, or if in the afternoon, a sample of what I've made for dinner if something new or particularly fabulous. We often have coffee/tea together. If it's the end of the day or a Friday, we might...once in a while...have a glass of wine. If one of the kids ate well at lunch, I'll often send the leftovers home. When we made apple sauce from our apple tree, we sent some home with those who wanted a little. They love the personal touch and know they're appreciated every dayYours is a great idea Sevenwatersdaughter! And as 5LittleMonkeys pointed out, if your area is saturated with home daycares, anything that sets you apart is a good thing. I've done this by treating my clients not just as clients, but as friends and let them know that our relationship is part of my success. We have parent dinners out..our last was 2 weeks ago at a local restaurant and was a great time for all of us. I develop the relationships between the families as well. Some lovely friendships have begun because of it. You do what you do and enjoy it!!! I think we're very much on the same page SWD!
