To ask, what do you give your cleaner for Christmas?

[Lightbulbs]

What do you give/ how much do you give to your cleaner at Christmas? She has been with us for 2 years, comes every 2 weeks and is £12ph.
For 3 hours she is £36 so last year I rounded this up to £50 and gave her a box of chocolates. I just want to check I'm not being stingy...

We have three ladies who clean for 2 hours each weekly (we have a big house). I’ve got them a bottle of Prosecco and a £25 JL voucher each.

We are giving her a months salary

Same as OP, £50 and a box of chocolates. We usually pay around £33 per week.

You generous lot! A bottle of wine and chocs would be enough in my eyes. Christmas is expensive!

Yeah. I’m obviously mean. Pay £70 weekly, gave £50 as a gift.

Double pay and a bottle of prosecco here.

Blimey, I've just got mine a bottle of prosecco and a Yankee candle. She does 2 hours every other week but I pay the cleaning company direct.

I can't afford to pay her double :/ But I have a cleaner because I have an incurable neuromuscular disease, so not well off by any means as I can't work anymore.

Is it the norm to give money as well?

A big toiletries set and smelly red thing as I know she likes them and £50.

Box of chocs, she doesn't drink, which is surprising because she cleans for me!

Normal wages plus a box of biscuits 🤷‍♀️

Oh blimey. I thought I was being generous buying her a cashmere scarf. Clearly I'm a bit of a Scrooge!

A bottle of gin for mine.

I was a cleaner and I'd have been delighted with an extra week's wage! Some of my clients were less well off than me but needed a cleaner because they were physically unable to do the work themselves - I'm glad they didn't give me a Christmas tip as TBH, they needed it more than me.

Anytime else thinking they should become a cleaner? Prosecco, £25 JL voucher, month's salary, chocolates, £50, double pay, Yankee candles, toiletries, biscuits, gin, cashmere scarf.....

Totally need to give up bookkeeping!!

I double the pay from £25 up to £50 and leave her a bottle of Prosecco.
I can't leave chocs this year - she's doing so well with dieting.

Her last clean before the Christmas holidays she does 3 hours for 4 hours pay, I then give her an extra weeks wages in a card and selection boxes for her kids.

I’m paying her for a day but she’s not working it

2 weeks wages (£50) and some chocs. That's not standard though, especially among those who use a cleaner because they're physically unable to do it themselves.

I gave mine a christmas cake (because her dh loves my cake), and some gifts that are specifically for her big holiday next year. DS made her some soap.

You’re all so generous I wish I worked for some of you I’m a cleaner and we don’t get anything, extra pay would be amazing
