What is it?

Brand New for 2026, Once Upon a Nurse is an interactive greeting card experience you can send to a nurse in your life over the course of an entire week, and it has absolutely BLOWN AWAY our test nurses.

Each day they receive short chapters of a lighthearted fairytale-style story that follows the moments and challenges every nurse will recognize: choosing the profession, learning the ropes, long shifts, caring for patients, and the subtle ways they change lives every day.

Most of those moments happened quietly, without anyone there to say thank you, which is why each chapter also includes a thank-you note you get to personalize to them. It’s the perfect way to go back and ensure sure they know just how much their work and sacrifices mean.

Perfect for celebrating any nurse in your life:

  • A spouse or partner

  • A son or daughter

  • A friend who’s a nurse

  • A coworker or teammate

  • A patient who wants to say thank you

How it works

Once Upon a Nurse is a humorous, Princess Bride-like, fairytale story that follows the life’s journey of a villager who decides to become a nurse. Each day, you share a chapter of the story with the nurse in your life. Some people email the chapter each morning, while others leave it on the breakfast table, tuck it into a lunch bag, or surprise them with it after a long shift.

Each chapter includes a short thank-you note you can easily personalize for your nurse. The note connects to that day’s story moment and lets you thank them for things no one stopped to recognize at the time. For many nurses, hearing those words for moments they had quietly been carrying can mean more than you might expect.

Each day also gives you the option to add a small treat inspired by the story. Nothing elaborate, just simple touches that can make the week even more special. We’ve included ideas for whether you’re nearby (like breakfast waiting in the morning) or far away (like e-cards or digital gifts). Together with the story, they create a week of appreciation your nurse will cherish forever.
