Nice find, PP!

I'd like to highlight: "77% of people give their nanny a week’s pay as a bonus (19% give more, 4% less)"

And for everyone getting caught up in the language, bonuses are standard but not mandatory. If you're a CEO you also expect a bonus, because it is standard, but if for some reason your company slashes bonuses one year, you won't quit in a huff because it isn't a mandatory part of your compensation. Nannies also expect bonuses, because they're standard, but a family that gives a card and a gift is probably not going to lose their nanny over it. You are all free to decide what you're comfortable with, none of us is saying you MUST give your nanny at LEAST $X for a bonus - just that like tipping your newspaper delivery boy, your doorman, or your hairdresser, a bonus for your nanny is traditional/common/standard.
