If you’re in the process of setting up your nanny’s paycheck, don’t forget that paying taxes is part of your obligation along with the nanny salary. Nannies must pay taxes on their nanny salary just like everyone else in the country.  

As an employer, you’re also obligated by law deduct taxes from your nanny’s salary.

If you’re having a tough time figuring out how to deal with the set-up, there are services that specialize in handling payroll. Paying taxes for your nanny can be much simpler if you decide to let an outside agency handle the process.
