The Process
Placement Fee
We take a small registration fee when you begin your search.
This is deducted from your final placement fee, so you never pay twice.
We offer a 6-month rematch, meaning if your nanny isn’t the right fit, we will attempt to match you with another nanny free of charge.
01
How Your Nanny Gets Paid
Agree the hourly/monthly rate
As you will be your nanny's employer, setting the pay is down to you. This will be based on your nanny’s experience, qualifications and responsibilities.
02
Pick a payroll
To keep everything legal and simple, North Coast Nannies advise on using a payroll system. This ensures you follow your guidelines as an employer.

Pay your nanny monthly
You simply transfer their wages, payroll handles the admin.
Tax-Free
Childcare
If your nanny registers under the Home Childcare Providers Scheme, you may be able to pay them through the Tax-Free Childcare system, saving 20% on childcare costs.
We can guide families on how this works.
