You are generous offering to replace it! She gave it to your child to wear when you had supplied a beanie for her! Not your fault, if you hadn't supplied one and she had lent to your DD that would be different.
Hope you sort it all out soon as food sounded like a nightmare too.
Did she lose it while the babysitter was looking after her? If so, then tough luck! It isn't like she would replace your DD's beanie if she had lost her own one.
she seems to to think that she sent it home. I always put all her stuff back in the girls bag. I can't say i remember seeing it when they came home. Hence why i was happy to replace it because i don't know if they did bring it home or not and was giving her benefit of the doubt.
I'd be telling her to go jump. You provided a beanie for your daughter, but she chose to let her wear her daughters one instead. So it's her problem it was lost, not yours. You were being quite generous offering to replace it at all. I can't believe she is now demanding that you replace it with that specific design!
Tell her you never saw it, it didn't come home with you. It must still be at her house. Remind her that you sent one for your DD to wear, if she was wearing that it wouldn't be an issue.
I wouldn't be buying her a new one just because she can't find it.
You provided something for your child to wear and she chose to use something else instead - it's also an old item - if it were that precious the the owner then the babysitter should have chosen something else or even just used the one you provided in the first place! Of course you will do the best you can to find it, but you have already made the offer to replace it and if it can't be found then that's unfortunately just something she will have to chalk up to experience.
