Not on the day itself, but the week before?

Would like to take our nanny our for a meal before Xmas with the kids (our treat)

Is this weird?

We will be giving her a bonus as well ...

Any thoughts appreciated

Not weird at all, but in fact very nice. I go out with my nanny and children for lunch every week and it's something we all look forward to.

No not weird. I've certainly had that happen before. For example I've had a trip to see a pantomime followed by dinner out.

My bosses took me out for my birthday with the children.Several employers have also taken me out in the past.They bought me a present also,it was a very enjoyable evening.

Sounds like a nice idea. My bosses at work treat us to meals sometimes, around holiday periods or when we're celebrating the end of a project.

Thanks All ....

So, not weird at all!?

not weird at all - i have been for a few meals with my familys - nice to have a chat and a glass of wine :0

Also think it's lovely :) nice to catch up, gossip and relax with some decent food and wine. It's important to maintain the working relationship IMO.

I don't see much of my bosses so when we are all at home at the same time we have a "family dinner" Grin and we have already booked our Xmas dinner 2 months in advance lol.
