FAQS
How does the tax and payroll process work when employing a nanny?
As an employer, you are responsible for managing your nanny’s payroll, which means they become an employee and you are liable to pay employer taxes, including National Insurance contributions.

Our agency can connect you with trusted payroll providers, and guide you through the process.
How long does the placement process take with your French Nanny Agency?
The placement process can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks, depending on your specific requirements and the availability of suitable nannies. We are usually able to send you profiles the same day or the day after you register with us. We will keep looking and sending you profiles, until we find a suitable candidate for your family.
