I earnt £42,000 per annum for a similar job to that this time last year, and was paid overtime on top as and when.

Are they ‘self employed’ or are you ‘employing’ them with pension contributions sick pay holiday pay etc as that makes a difference
friends of mine with nannies pay around 35-45k in London pa varies along with the terms and conditions

Nannies can’t technically be self employed because they don’t choose their own hours.

My friend pays £43,00, but her nanny comes away with them on holiday, babysits an evening a week and covers one in four weekends as they both travel.

I am bumping this to ask the same question but as of now (with cost of living etc). Are salaries being increased / have they generally gone up? I am SW London as well - wanting to make sure we are paying our amazing nanny market rates. Thanks so much.

A nanny can’t be self employed unless it’s a temporary ad hoc arrangement.
If you want set days and times a week and not the nanny dictating when she is available.
HMRC are very hot on this .

Sorry to be clear - nanny definitely employed by me and we are paying NI, pension etc. I am just asking about current market rates for salary for this arrangement (working hours are 11 hours per day) as we are considering a pay rise.

Thanks.
