My wife and I live in Chicago. We will be giving our nanny a bonus this Christmas, but would like to know what an appropriate amount is? We have heard something equivalent to one week’s pay. Is this right, or should it be more or less?

She is particularly good, so I will want to be on the high end of whatever’s appropriate.
Thanks.

Giving her a bonus of about a week’s pay is very appropriate – especially if you think that she is doing her job well. As a nanny in MN, I would say that getting an extra weeks pay for a bonus would be very generous of you.
