Understanding Nanny Taxes

You will likely need to pay nanny taxes if you employ someone to work in your home and they make $2,700 or more in gross wages in 2024 (or $2,600 in 2023). Household employees may include:

• Full- and part-time nannies (live-in and live-out)
• After-school nannies and tutors
• Seasonal and summer nannies
• Learning pod or home education teachers
• Specialty caregivers for children with special needs
• Babysitters with regular hours/schedule

Nanny taxes is the collective term used for the employer taxes a family needs to pay when they have a household employee. A family will owe Social Security and Medicare taxes (commonly called FICA taxes) as well as federal and state unemployment taxes while withholding their employee’s share of FICA taxes. Withholding income taxes is optional but a good idea so your household employee does not owe their entire tax obligation when they file their tax return.

Using a Nanny Payroll Service

The IRS estimates that it will take at least 60 hours each year to manage your nanny payroll and tax obligations. Your time is better spent doing something – anything else – than figuring out nanny taxes. Get nanny payroll wrong – even if your mistakes are unintentional – and you could face significant fines and penalties.

That is why you should leave the hassles and risks of nanny payroll and taxes to the household employment experts.

With GTM’s nanny payroll service, payroll and tax professionals will manage all of the wage, tax, and labor rules that come with every childcare situation.
