Nanny share bonus dilemma

IMO (as an employer of a nanny) one week bonus is lovely and sufficient. Two weeks is incredibly generous. But your judgment of the other share family's choice and finances is immensely distasteful.

I think OP is more worried about keeping the families on equal footing than judging. Rude judgement about judging.

NP here I like this idea. Give the same amount bonus as the other family and then add the gift card from your family. Seems like the fairest way. You cant really expect the other family to give the same as you can because their financial situation is obviously different than yours. Cant criticize them for that.
