Leaving gift for work

Hey! For everyone starting mat leave that manages or is part of a team, what are you getting the team for a farewell gift? For context, I usually buy my team small xmas presents (last year was a mug each which I filled with sweets and chocolates) and for my last mat leave I got the team some coffees teas etc. this has been a rough pregnancy and a tough 6 months at work so I was thinking of just going to a bakery and getting a load of cakes and buns. Does this seem ok?

I've never heard of the person leaving giving gifts, that seems really odd to me 😂 lovely, but odd haha. I think cake and buns is more than enough!

I’m getting a batch of brownies made as a wee treat xo

I took in 3 boxes of chocolates and no one gave a royal fck 🤣🤣🤣 what it was for or that it was my last day in the office. I would say just do what makes you happy because I'm sure no one is judging. It's normally customary for you to get a good luck card and maybe gifts but I'm a big softy too and give more than recieve .

I gave each of them a selection box 😂😂😂

Last time my team got me £250 John Lewis vouchers, a big nappy caddy filled with some gorgeous essentials, and a train set spelling my son's name! Not sure what this team might get. But on neither occasion was I planning to get anything for my team for my mat leave 🤔 Nice idea, but I might just receive rather than give hehe xx

I took in 2 x boxes of chocolates.
