Invoicing tips for nanny invoice template

  • Log regular hours and overtime separately, since household employees are typically owed time-and-a-half over 40 hours a week
  • List reimbursed expenses like outings, snacks, or gas as their own non-taxable lines
  • If you are paid on the books as a household employee, note that this invoice is a record and taxes are handled via payroll
  • Track holiday or guaranteed-hours pay explicitly so there is no confusion at the end of the period
  • Send the invoice on a consistent schedule, such as every Friday, so families can budget

Nanny Invoice Template invoice FAQ

Am I an employee or a contractor as a nanny?

The IRS generally treats nannies as household employees, not independent contractors, because the family controls the work. That usually means the family handles 'nanny taxes' (Social Security, Medicare) via payroll rather than issuing a 1099. This invoice serves as your hours record.

Do nanny services have sales tax?

No. Childcare is a personal service and is not subject to sales tax anywhere in the US. You only invoice for hours worked and any agreed expense reimbursements.

How does overtime work for nannies?

Under federal law, household employees who do not live in the home are owed overtime at 1.5 times their regular rate for hours over 40 in a week. Bill regular and overtime hours on separate lines so the math is clear.

How should reimbursed expenses appear?

List activity fees, gas, groceries, or craft supplies you paid for as separate reimbursement lines, not wages. Attach receipts when possible so the family can verify and so the amounts stay clearly non-taxable.
