Typical Christmas bonus?

Questions About Nanny Standards/Etiquette

Our nanny joined us almost exactly a year ago. We’re ending her contract at the end of Nov. i obvi still want to give her a Christmas bonus… I read somewhere it’s a weeks pay, but then I was talking to someone at work and they said it was closer to 2-3wks.

I live in Brooklyn.

I give 1 week pay . I think 2 weeks is generous but would not consider it standard.

1-2 weeks is standard. One week is fine for someone who’s only been with you a year and will be leaving soon.

I believe 2 weeks broken down into a cash bonus and a small personal gift is normal
