Holiday Bonus, Part 4


Holiday Bonus, Part 4
Bonus: nothingGifts: $25 Old NavyWeekly
Salary: 0-40 hours: $500...any hour after 40 I get a set hourly rate for over time
Location: Milwaukee, Wi
Length worked for Family: it will be a year this January
Comments: I really didn't expect a bonus because I have had more paid vacation in the last year then Ive had in my whole life! Plus I'm getting nearly 2 weeks paid vacation for Christmas...so that puts me at at least 4 since
I started. They are a very generous and accomodating family who has allowed me the pleasure of going back to school (they even have gottten additional child care for nights I have to leave early).  And the gift card was a nice gesture.  Not to sound naive but I'm very satisfied with what I got. When you factor in all the paid vacation its more then any family has ever given me.  They are wonderful

* Bonus this year (2012): nothing monetary
* Your weekly salary:$800 (live in)
* Any supplementary gifts aside from the Bonus: A Marc Jacobs computer case that I mentioned wanting, and a couple of Nike clothing items. 
* Length of time you have worked for the Family: 5 months
* City, State and Country where you live: Virginia and Florida. We spend 4
months of the winter in Florida. 
* Additional comments: I'm pretty sure that my bosses don't know that bonuses are mostly standard in the nanny biz. I'm not really upset by it because I know it's not a reflection on how they feel about my
performance, but it would have been nice. I think even though I didn't really expect one, on some level I was still hopeful so I can't help but feel a bit let down. Oh well. 

Bonus (2012): zero
Weekly Salary:  $315
Other Gifts:  Cooking Tools
Length of Time with Family: two years PT then two years FT

Comments:  In the past, I got $100.  This year the family is going through a few hard financial situations.  Therefore, I am honestly pleased that I get to keep my job.  My clients could choose an in-home
daycare for a third of the cost of what I get paid.  I enjoy the children, and am glad I get to work with them.

Again..as I've said before, it is very refreshing to see how grateful these nannies are to have wonderful families to work for. It seems they truly appreciate EVERYTHING they have knowing not everyone is fortunate to work for good families.

To the nanny of 5 months who was a little let down....I think after you work for them at least a year, they may start handing out bonuses. Perhaps they think it is still too early. Hang in there!

Congrats to all of you.
You guys are awesome. ♫
