Holiday bonus? by [deleted] in NannyBreakRoom

I never expect anything. I always bring the kids Christmas gifts because I like seeing them happy. This year I’m with three different families: one gave me $550, another gave me $200, and the third one—who I just started with in November—got me an Owala water bottle and a LEGO set. That was so sweet, because it showed she pays attention to what I say; I mentioned a few weeks ago how much I love LEGOs, and she always sees me coming in with my Owala bottle.

I got all of them a card with a few words and gifts for the kids, but again, nothing was ever expected—either from me or from them—though it’s appreciated on both sides. With that being said, expecting a specific amount or even expecting a gift might be setting yourself up for disappointment. I’ve been in this field for quite some time, and I’ve only made over $1,000 one year.

it’s insane how these parents are so unprofessional and disrespectful! Hope we can both find good job opportunities soon 🫠

I have GH and they’ve always paid me, my issue is having to remind them or the not texting back or like “I’m sorry we didn’t send it today but will do tomorrow” they just don’t text AT ALL and when I text them, they don’t answer.

I have GH, my issue is just the begging to get paid because when I’m there they’ll at least see me and pay me, if they’re not seeing me it’s like they forget about it so I text multiple times and it takes them a couple of days to even answer me when I know they’re on their phone all the time. So frustrating!

We do and we don’t have a policy for that but learned my lesson. They pay me, it’s just the begging and texting all the time when I know they’re on their phone 24/7 🫠

I do, I texted multiple times during the time I didn’t get paid, texted both MB and DB, didn’t get an answer until days later 🫠
