[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Isn't this why nannies get end of the year bonuses and other 'perks'? Nannies don't get bonuses because they did their job. They get paid because they do their job. [b]Bonuses is a sign of appreciation because the nanny was flexible, did things outside of their normal activities, etc.[/b] People sacrifice alot in many professions so why do nannies get bent out of shape every-time something changes even slightly? Yet they still expect 2 weeks holiday pay, paid time off, free food, they probably run errands on the job, paid holidays, a birthday gift (well, most lol), etc etc.

Most nannies would never make it in the real world, that must is clear.[/quote]

If there were some committee overseeing the distribution of bonuses and "perks" to the nannies who went above and beyond, you might have a point. Back in the real world the two do not correlate often enough.[/quote]

+1 I have been a nanny for 5 years. I have glowing references, my bosses tell me they love me constantly, and they have all cried upon our parting which have all been amicable. Yet I work for very middle class families for whom a nanny is a stretch to begin with and I have NEVER gotten a bonus. Last year was the first year I received a gift ($10 gift card and picture of the baby) I know that I am appreciated, but I also know that laying down to be walked on all year does not correlate into some big payout at the end of the year.
