New Year, New Perks – Rewards and Wellbeing for your Nanny
For those working for a larger company or those who are office based, perks are very much a normal and expected part of the remuneration package. Whether that be a subsided canteen, training budgets or remote working, benefits beyond the standard salary are so important to how an employee feels about where they work.
But what about if you only employ one person? Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to reward them beyond their payslip? After all, for a nanny, the option to ‘work from home’ isn’t really relevant.
This is why Nannytax is proud to offer a Nanny Rewards & Wellbeing Package to all our nanny employers. Even better, for new subscribers in January 2026, we are offering you access for your nanny for one year, free of charge!
Why offer Rewards to your nanny?
Offering Rewards and Wellbeing can have many benefits.
Retention and Stability
Replacing a nanny or caregiver is difficult, disruptive, and often stressful for the family. Perks help create loyalty and reduce turnover, which means:
- More consistency for children or dependents
- Less time spent recruiting and training someone new
- Reduced emotional upheaval for everyone involved
Additionally, offering a reward and wellbeing package helps your offer stand out, making your employment an attractive proposition.
Trust and Reliability
Household roles often involve a high level of trust (keys to your home, childcare, personal information). Perks can help build a cooperative, respectful relationship that improves communication and reliability.
Goodwill and Mutual Respect
In a private home, the relationship is personal. Thoughtful perks help create a positive, respectful environment where both the employer and employee feel comfortable and valued. When someone feels appreciated, they put more heart into the job.
What is the Nannytax Rewards and Wellbeing package?
We have partnered with Onsi to provide a comprehensive package of benefits, all rolled into one handy app. Onsi offers:
Rewards
Through the Onsi app, your nanny can access a range of discounts and savings on a variety of high street brands, products and services. This includes fuel, restaurants, experience days and shops.
Wellbeing
The Onsi programme not only offers access to digital GPs, physiotherapists and qualified counsellors, but also financial wellbeing support and a family support service. Anecdotally, we know that access to a virtual GP for those who may work extended or irregular hours is greatly appreciated, and can be beneficial for both the employer and employee.
How does it work?
The registration process is very easy.
All new subscribers to Nannytax or Nannytax Plus throughout January 2026 will be offered the opportunity to sign their nanny up to Onsi free of charge (£84 saving).
- Once you’ve joined Nannytax, keep an eye out for an email from us. There will be a link to click to take you to a simple sign-up form.
- Complete the sign up form. It’s super quick and easy to do. (Please note, you will need to add payment details, but don’t worry, your card won’t be charged).
- Your nanny will receive a welcome email from Onsi, our Rewards & Wellbeing partner, with details on how to get started.
Please also refer to our promotional terms and conditions.
Do I need to declare it to HMRC?
As an employer, you should be aware that certain benefits must be declared to HMRC as Benefits in Kind. However, the good news is that the Nannytax Rewards and Wellbeing package does not count as a Benefit in Kind, which means that additional tax is not incurred.
Don’t forget that, as a comprehensive payroll service, our team will be on hand to support you with any queries you may have about benefits.
What about if I’m an existing Nannytax customer?
Don’t worry, you can sign your nanny up for our Rewards and Wellbeing package at any stage. Our subscription costs just £7 a month (paid as a one off annual payment of £84).
So, whether it’s a Christmas gift, New Year perk or just a way to say ‘Thanks for all your hard work’, Onsi offers an inexpensive but valuable benefit for your nanny.
