Cash is always great, but a well chosen gift shows you know and appreciate the recipient as a person. That being said, I think this is impossible to generalize about based on any one persons preference.

But a gift from and employer to employee is very different from a gift between friends. I am the kind of nanny who is regularly referred to as "part of the family" by all previous and current employers, but I still am professional enough that I am not going on about things I want to buy or how much I need a new XYZ in front of my boss. My boss would not know what to get me, because she only sees the parts of my life that are relevant to work.

I'd take a new iPad if I didn't have one.
