Alternative to Nannytax

[j-mo]

Hi - just wondered if anyone is using the alternatives to Nannytax and would recommend them?

I don't want to go cheap for the sake of it if the service is not as good but equally don't want to pay double unnecessarily!

Any comments gratefully received.

Thanks

I use NannyPAYE.co.uk who price matched payefornannies.co.uk and I pay ?125 inc VAT a year. I previously used Taxing Nannies who were more expensive but seemed very knowledgeable about tax for nannyshares. I was very happy with them, and was grateful for the guidance in a quite complicated nannyshare set up, but when our share ended and we switched to a more straightforward employment arrangement with our own nanny I couldn't really justify spending double. I've been very happy with NannyPAYE for our very standard sole charge nanny tax needs.

It's very easy to do yourself with the PAYE Basic software from HMRC. It's free, as is the support helpline.

There are lots of payroll agencies that do the same thing - best thing is to Google and ensure you check price for weekly/monthly as some advertise cheaper rate but then you find it's for weekly payroll when you want monthly (or vice versa).

All the same thing, Nannytax purely a big brand so Nescafe coffee as opposed to say Red Mountain :)

Another nod to nannypaye. They're cheaper and were great. As esme said, shop around. So long as the firm is reputable, you'll get the same essential service. You're paying to avoid weekly/monthly hassle and to ensure you avoid missing a payment to HMRC (or risking getting it wrong). They're also very helpful with general advice on contracts etc.
