As an employer, you are responsible for managing your nanny’s payroll, which means they become an employee and you are liable to pay employer taxes, including National Insurance contributions. We recommend using a payroll service that specialises in nanny employment to handle these responsibilities efficiently. Our agency can connect you with trusted payroll providers, and guide you through the process.
