But she's suddenly leaving us so we talked about it and she knows that since she's leaving early, the Christmas vacation is off the table. She makes about $750 a week for me, so that is not happening when her last day is next Fri! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nanny-christmas-giftparting-gift#post-2385274 Fri, 11 Dec 2015 08:07:00 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2385274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Around her Christmas gifts for nannies is usually one weeks pay.<br /> I'd ask around and see what the norm is in your area. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nanny-christmas-giftparting-gift#post-2385257 Fri, 11 Dec 2015 07:48:05 +0000 looch 2385257@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would probably give cash instead and I would bump it to $200. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nanny-christmas-giftparting-gift#post-2385256 Fri, 11 Dec 2015 07:45:14 +0000 regberadaisy 2385256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think that's more than generous. But I have no idea what Lulumon is. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nanny-christmas-giftparting-gift#post-2385208 Fri, 11 Dec 2015 04:41:22 +0000 BandDmommy 2385208@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd probably bump it up to $200. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nanny-christmas-giftparting-gift#post-2385183 Fri, 11 Dec 2015 02:51:19 +0000 lamariniere 2385183@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sounds very appropriate to me. I would maybe add a bottle of wine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nanny-christmas-giftparting-gift#post-2385116 Thu, 10 Dec 2015 23:16:34 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 2385116@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think $100 is pretty good, but I'd also add something from lo, like handprint art or something. We made a handprint bouquet for our nanny when she left... Our nanny was with is a year and we gave her about two weeks pay because she really needed it (was in school) and we loved her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nanny-christmas-giftparting-gift#post-2384857 Thu, 10 Dec 2015 20:26:30 +0000 Ginabean3 2384857@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think that's a great gift! The only reason why I would maybe bump it up to $200 is because $100 really only gets you one thing at LL....😉 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nanny-christmas-giftparting-gift#post-2384853 Thu, 10 Dec 2015 20:24:24 +0000 PrincessBaby 2384853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our amazing nanny that has become part of our family and is absolutely PERFECT in every way, is unfortunately leaving us because her husband got his dream job offer in another city. I'm basically in denial, but her last day is next Friday. So it's happening, no matter how much I pretend like it's not.</p> <p>What is a nice parting/Christmas gift? She wears LuluLemon every day and I was thinking of giving her a $100 gift card to LL. Is that too little of an amount? I don't really know what's appropriate. She has been with us since July. </p>
