Pay your nannies taxes with Way2paye

Information for parents employing a nanny.

Working out your nanny tax the easy way

When you’ve found your perfect nanny, you’ll need to take him / her on as an employee and pay his / her wages as his / her employer. When you pay your new employee you’ll need to calculate his / her PAYE Tax and National Insurance.

If you are about to employ a Nanny, Au Pair or Housekeeper you’ll probably need a formal contract too. If you like you can use our free nanny contract.

To pay your new nanny and his / her taxes you have a couple of options – doing it yourself (this can be hard work and time consuming), using an accountant (can be expensive), or using a specialist agency, that’s why we’ve teamed up with our friends Way2paye who can do all of the hard work for you.

Way2pay provides a value for money service, for an annual fee of just £185.

Your obligations when you employ a nanny

As an employer you are the key player in making sure that your employee(s) pay their tax and National Insurance Contributions (NICs).

You must:   
•    Tell HM Revenue & Customs when an employee starts or leaves
   
•    Work out accurately and deduct PAYE Tax and National Insurance Contributions (NICs) from each employee every pay day
   
•    Record details of deductions and payments every pay day
   
•    Pay HM Revenue & Customs every quarter
   
•    Report details at the end of the tax year
   
•    Give each employee still working for you at 5th April a record of pay and deductions at the end of the tax year on form P60.

You may need to:
•    Deduct Student Loan Deductions every pay day 
•    Make statutory payments to your employees such as Statutory Sick Pay or Statutory Maternity Pay

Your options are:    

  1. Calculate it yourself which can be time consuming
  2. Use an Accountant which can be expensive
  3. Use a payroll service like our friends Way2paye
  4. Not declaring employment (a criminal offence)
