How much do nanny taxes cost your employee?
Generally, a single nanny with no children will take home about 80% of her gross earnings. For example, a nanny earning $500 per week would earn about $400 after taxes. Actual wages vary based on the employee's marital status, number of dependents and the state you live in.
