Parents who use UrbanSitter to find a great babysitter often ask, “how much should I give my nanny for Christmas?” or “what should I give my babysitter for the holidays?” The UrbanSitter 2012 Holiday Gifting Survey Infographic answers all of your babysitter and nanny gift questions.

    I hate to ask what the average is in Michigan but hoping it is up there with New Yorkers. I could sure use a bonus! But based on what I get paid, think I better just get in the welfare line. LOL I do have to say there is no price tag on the hugs and kisses.
