School nurses are real-life heroes for kids with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D)- managing blood sugars, treating lows, handling highs, and keeping our kids safe every single day.
National School Nurse Day is on May 7, 2025. I like to send in a gift on this day as a special thank you for all they have done for my son. I created a couple different files that you can download and print if you would like to use them as well. Just attach a gift card to each!
I will even use some of these printable files at the end of the school year with a bigger gift card as a thank you for the entire school year. We are so lucky to have our amazing school nurses!
Other gift ideas:
Personalized tumbler
Bracelet- we have given one that has the colors of Breakthrough T1D so she can always remember our son
Relaxation gifts
Gift cards
A special note from your T1D child- most meaningful, I always include this with our gifts
