Nanny payroll, done for you.

We've focused on nannies at the moment but our services really extend to anyone who needs help with managing tax and payroll for their employees.

Feel free to get in contact with us if you have anything you think we can help with.

We've developed our own custom platform that's cutting edge and best in class.

Previously, we've solely used third-party software but we have developed a custom platform that better meets the needs of our customers. It's been built with the domestic employee in mind and integrates with other key software.

For a demo/preview on the system and some general guidance - view 'Using the system as Employer or Nanny'.

PAYG or "pay as you go" is a federal income tax that needs to be filed and paid on behalf of your Nanny with each payroll. PAYG is deducted from your Nanny's wages and we pay this directly to ATO to ensure that you and your Nanny meet their tax obligations.

All nannies are paid in arrears on the Friday in line with their payment cycle. Our normal working week runs from Monday to Sunday.

We have different pay cycles, either weekly, fortnightly or monthly and these are dependent on the preference of each customer.

All nannies are paid in the same cycle. For example, all fortnightly cycle nannies are paid at the same time, to ensure we can streamline our processes and so no pays get missed!

Monthly pays are paid on the second working Friday of each month (for the time worked in the calendar month prior).

Generally, no. This is a common misconception which often confuses many employment relationships and can lead to a household not meeting their legal obligations as an employer with potentially severe repercussions for non-compliance.

ATO have guidance on the difference between a contractor versus an employee. It is very rare for a Nanny to meet the criteria of being a contractor. For example, Nannies are paid an hourly rate for the time they work and have little independence over when they work, their hours or their duties.
