Hi all,


We are in the process of revising our nanny contract to accommodate a family share, however it's so complex working out the tax. We are thinking it would be easier to ask her to become self employed and we pay her a gross salary instead of a net salary (and then pay her tax separately).


Does anyone have a contract that is for a nanny share, in which the nanny is self employed, that they could share with us to use as a template?


We would be so grateful!


Many thanks

Difficult to envisage a situation in which an employment tribunal would find a nanny was self employed unless you genuinely allowed them to send anyone to do the job. Tread carefully with this otherwise you could end up in hot water because of the employment protection the nanny loses by agreeing that status.


The nanny payroll companies can probably help.

Yes indeed though she said she has done this before with a family. But of course we wouldn't want her to lose holidays and sick pay. It's more just because it's easier to pay the tax this way. But yes, will give our many tax company a call.


Thanks

Any of the nanny tax companies will work out a share for you and split the tax etc. We have a 3 day share plus a 2 day sole charge and it took some time working out the numbers but it was all done for us. Plus they provide us with our quarterly tax bill which we pay directly to HMRC and if there are any problems with HMRC (which we had once) the tax company sorts it out which is a bonus. We use NannyPaye but there are several options.

You need to all employ her separately. And the tax code is either split or with the person with most hours. Otherwise it is definitely illegal unless her hours are truly irregular and changeable. Would always agree a gross salary in these circumstances otherwise with a net salary your contribution will go up and down

      Have you tried Southwark's leisure centres? As a regular attendee at Peckham, Camberwell, The Castle and speaking to friends, the dance routines for all ages are similar to Silver ones. In addition Natty, Bianca and Isac are brilliant instructors.

      I've been there for lunch a few times and the home cooked asian food (as part of Sweat Dreams cafe) is genuinely great and a must try. I think the food side of the business has been slow to be noticed but people are now realising what is actually hidden in plain sight.  As for the Aroma Lab coffee ... it is excellent, they are very welcoming and friendly (and unpretentious!). This Australian coffee snob is mightily impressed!!

      Do you mean put out things like live mealworms for the parents to feed to the young? Or that the parents will eat the food you put out and therefore can save "wild" live food for the young rather than eating it themselves? On another matter, several weeks ago I moved my bird feeders to another part of my (very small) garden because the area they were in was totally scratched up by pigeons, and I lost several plants I had had for decades and was very fond of 😭 It is now just bare earth with no plants,  and I've got to start again. And block up a fox hole in one corner. I suspect the foxes are tunnelling beneath the garden, as there are several holes. I hope the ground doesn't suddenly collapse beneath me! I cleaned everything and put in fresh seed, but so far all that has visited the new area (that I have actually seen)  is one rather fat sparrow. And a cat. Sitting hopefully beneath the feeders 🤬 No goldfinches (I have a niger seed feeder and have seen the occasional goldfinch in the garden) and no tits, though I've heard both blue tits and great tits nearby. Plus the flock of sparrows who used to come and seem to have deserted the garden. Hopefully they will find the feeders. I've cut back some of the greenery, which doesn't help, as they have less shelter.

      Franklins is being sold

      So when will we find out? Is it going to be a big reveal on some specified day? If not, why can't you tell us now?! (I'm presuming you mean the new boss of Franklins. It would be too much to hope for that the Palmerston had a miraculous return to one of its better past incarnations. Never mind the food, they could bring back the lovely quirky painted column things of over twenty (?) years ago, and remove the hideous "art" that has sadly been installed. I feel really sorry for the staff, because it can't be just my partner and I who rarely go there any more. I suppose the only hope is that it does so badly that it changes hands again and that the new hands have better taste. Sorry, all off topic.)
