[quote=Anonymous]Nanny is leaving in June. She has been with us almost 2 years. We LOVE her and think the world of her. She wants to go back to school to become an elementary teacher. So, the parting is mutual and on good terms, but is initiated 100% by her. We would still employ her if she wanted.

So, what is customary here? Do we pay severance, even though we are not ending the contract? A nice gift? An extra week pay?

We are at the top of our budget just paying for a nanny. If funds were unlimited, of course I would shower her with all the things. But that is not our reality. We can't pay her two months salary or pay out all her unused sick time (those aren't things in the contract just using them as an example)

Would love to hear from nannies who have been in this situation and what you got. Would love to hear from employers and what you offered.

My hope / guess is she will still be our first call / date night sitter so will hopefully be in our lives still. So I would like to do something nice.[/quote]
