HI All,
not 100% this should go in "accounting/legal" rather than "general" but hopefully I got it in the right place...
Like many, I have a small Ltd with me as main (sole) revenue earner.
My wife has just landed a permie job after being off for 4 years since our 2 kids were born.
Over the next 3-4 months we are going to be needing a full-day nanny;
Then from October (when the kids start full time school), a childminder for the 4-6 time.
I know that the My Ltd can offer ~£245/m of childcare costs to all its employees (ie. me)
But is there anything else that My Ltd can contribute? Specifically around the employing the nanny part -- it seems we (personnally) will have to become employers, run the nanny's payroll & do hmrc returns for PAYE & NIC. Aside from the admin, various companies offer to do this for us at a cost -- which gets me questioning whether any of this can be done via My Ltd which already has payroll, is an employer (of me & wife) and therefore already does PAYE & NIC returns.
I've put a call into my accounts but my usual contact is away for a week so want to see if anyone here has any experience/suggestions on this one....
