No, in general they usually do not get paid holidays.

As for a gift, you do not have to get her anything, but if you want to get her something...A nice token is always appreciated.

Something small & simple like a gift card is sufficient. Perhaps a $30 gift card for Starbucks, Target or Amazon would be nice.

Actually I am a nanny, and a gift so early on especially would make me uncomfortable.
