Considerations for Permanent Placements

If Mary Poppins Nannies employs your nanny, you do not need to worry about payment of wages, taxes, superannuation or insurances – everything is taken care of by us.  Should you choose to employ the nanny yourself, we will help with paperwork and contacts for all your employer responsibilities, but you will be required to process all employer requirements.

Wages

Whether the carer is to be employed by Mary Poppins Nannies or directly by the family, the rate of pay will vary depending on her experience and qualifications, and on the position and your requirements.  Your Childcare Consultant will be able to offer guideline rates for your situation and will help with the negotiation.

The hourly charge for each placement is negotiated on an individual basis taking into account variables such as the number of hours worked, the number of children and families cared for, if housekeeping is involved; and the age, experience and qualifications of the applicant.
