When you employ a nanny in the UK there are numerous issues that you must consider, as domestic employers have the same legal responsibilities as commercial employers. Many parents have little or no experience as employers and the prospect of having to deal with both complex and time-consuming payroll and other legal obligations can be a source of great concern.

Nannytax® acts as your agent and do everything for you, from setting up a nanny PAYE scheme and calculating the correct tax and National Insurance payments, to making sure your nanny's payslips are accurate. When you subscribe to Nannytax® you also receive unlimited support and advice on all payroll and employment related issues:

• Can my nanny be self-employed?
• What do I do if my nanny is pregnant?

• How much will it cost to employ a nanny?
• What happens when my nanny is off sick?
