\"nannyMany families are still looking for ways to cut costs these days. For those that use nannies for their childcare, there is a trend that is becoming more and more popular: nanny sharing.<\/strong> Families can hire a nanny to watch their respective children simultaneously, or a nanny can work part-time for two different families. In either case, the families share the cost and still enjoy the benefits a nanny provides. But it\u2019s important to remember that even though a family may be sharing a nanny, the legal obligations for all involved families remain the same as if it were a one-family, one-nanny relationship.<\/p>\n

Household employers who participate in a nanny share must both be set up as employers and take care of the payroll, taxes, benefits, etc.\u00a0 It is illegal to have one family reimburse the other for their share of the nanny\u2019s wages. When sharing a nanny, BOTH families must provide all the necessary payroll and tax paperwork. To illustrate this more clearly, it would be the same as a person working for both McDonald\u2019s and Burger King; the employee will receive separate paychecks, separate W-2\u2019s, separate insurance coverage, etc.<\/p>\n

Families should also understand their state\u2019s child care licensing requirements<\/a>.\u00a0 In certain states, such as Maryland and Washington, families may be required to have a child care license if they care for a certain number of children inside their home.<\/p>\n

If you and another family have agreed to participate in a nanny share or thinking about one, view our guide to setting up a nanny share<\/a>\u00a0to ensure you are fulfilling your legal obligations, as well as creating a successful business partnership that will benefit both you and the nanny.<\/p>\n
