Paying your Nanny Properly on Payroll is EASY.
For a long time, a large part of the nanny market has been cash in hand. But not anymore with NannyPay. NannyPay fills the gap to provide nannies and families with the support and information they need to make the best decisions around how to set up fair and legal working arrangements.
Navigate the market
Finding the right person to care for your family can be daunting, especially with so much conflicting advice online about pay and expectations.
NannyPay helps nannies and families set up new arrangements every day. Guiding both sides through the confusing parts so you can start a great working relationship.
Automate the ATO
Our accounting team can customise your nanny PAYG around your tax and structure preferences. We work closely alongside the ATO and other accounting teams to keep the domestic payroll separate and smoothly.
Once set up, all you have to do is make sure the pay is right. We manage all fund transfers and ATO obligations for you.
Nanny Negotiations
Families and nannies often end up discussing different hourly rates without realising how benefits and taxes change the total cost.
We help you understand what the offer means for everyone so you can negotiate clearly and support your nanny from timesheets to tax returns.
Experts you should talk to
Employing someone should be a thoughtful decision and ChatGPT might not give you the right information. The best way to secure the correct information based for your nanny arrangement is to contact the relevant regulatory board
Australian Tax Office (ATO)
Get help understanding your tax and reporting obligations, including whether your nanny should be an employee or contractor.
Fair Work Australia
Learn about minimum pay rates, leave entitlements, and other employee rights under the Miscellaneous Award.
Your Accountant
Ask how domestic employment affects your taxes. Nannies aren’t tax-deductible, so it’s not as simple as adding them to your business payroll.
WorkSafe
Check in with your state’s regulator to discuss workers’ compensation and what policies apply when you hire a worker in your home.
Still unsure?
Book a call with the NannyPay team, and we’ll connect you with the right authority for clear, formal advice.
How to Set Yourself Up as an Employer
There are two ways families can manage nanny employment:
Self-managed: Register with the ATO, learn the rules, calculate tax and super each pay cycle, issue payslips, and keep on top of changing entitlements.
Work with NannyPay: We take care of the payroll, tax, super and compliance for you, so you know everything is done correctly without the stress.
NannyPay saves time, avoids mistakes, and gives peace of mind.
