A 50 bucks gift card

@A1, it’s the nanny’s 2nd week.

We normally do ~1-2 weeks pay. Pro-rata that’s ~2 days pay for you. $100-200 gift card more than enough

Thank you all for your suggestions.

We do 2 weeks pay. I’m not sure why the length of service would play in so hard. Assuming you like her and want to reward her for being great, I’d say at least give 1 week. She isn’t going to do the math about pro rating the bonus by number of days. And in my opinion anything less than 1 week would seem like a snub. Most nannies factor some form of bonus (not a present which is what the $100 would be) into their pay.

@guidehouse1- 2 weeks pay? That’s more than what I got for my bonus. Sorry but I am not taking your suggestion. If you have money, pls give us some!!!

Huh? OP.. Your bonus was less than 4%? Well, I’m just telling you what is standard in our area, maybe you can get away with less. But it’s 1-2 weeks. I think many families factor that into the cost of a nanny as they are considering if they can afford it. I’m sure whatever you decide will be fine. Just make sure you show appreciation for what she is doing for your family

I know the standard is 1 weeks pay. But you need to read my original post where I have specified that the caregiver started with us a month back and will be with us until March 2019. We have already decided on the amount to give and is no way close to the amount your specified. And yes, 1300 was my bonus. Got a problem with that ?

We did 2 weeks pay because we thought ours was a rock star

What would you do?
- You have your annual review with your manager
- They promote you up a level, you see your new shiny salary and title
- End meeting
- Get a DM to meet with manager the same week
- Get told that your title was “a mistake” and that you would keep the salary and but not the title. Due to a communication with upper leadership.
- 2 months later your title updates in Messaging channels and with HR with the leveled up title.
