You're forever indebted to her, the girl who makes it possible for you to maintain some semblance of a social life — your kids' favorite weekend babysitter. While she may show up ready to whip up chicken nuggets for dinner, push up her sleeves and get crafty, and agree to watch Frozen for the third Saturday in a row, it's safe to say that her tastes outside of your home are a bit more grown-up. Treat your deserving sitter to something special this holiday, and let her know how much you — and your kids — appreciate her.

She's saved you many times, so show appreciation for your superhero sitter with this humorous mug ($11).
This patterned case ($40) is sure to please your tech-savvy sitter. The faux-leather trim adds some sophistication to the fun patterns.
