Service compliance guide
Engaging Childcare in your home makes you a household employer, with the same core duties as any domestic role: registration, social contributions, accident cover and proper pay. A few points are specific to this type of help.
Whatever the task, the framework is the same: register with your cantonal AHV compensation office (contributions are due from the first franc), pay AHV/IV/EO at 5.3% each and ALV at 1.1% each plus the canton-set family-allowance contribution, arrange UVG accident insurance, check BVG and withholding-tax eligibility, and issue a year-end Lohnausweis. Part-time Childcare usually fits the simplified settlement procedure — up to CHF 22,680 a year per employee and CHF 60,480 total payroll, with tax at a flat 5%.
How much Childcare costs and whether occupational pension applies depend mainly on hours and pay: a role below CHF 22,680 a year carries no BVG, and non-occupational accident cover becomes mandatory at 8 or more hours a week. The qualification level expected for Childcare can also affect the applicable wage floor.
Helpore matches you with verified helpers for Childcare, enforces the applicable wage floor, and takes care of the household-employment administration — registration support, payroll allocation, insurance and documents — so you can focus on the help itself.

Yes, when the wage stays within the limits — up to CHF 22,680 a year per employee and CHF 60,480 total household payroll — with income tax discharged at a flat 5%.
Helpore registers the employment, allocates payroll, arranges insurance and produces the documents — so the compliance steps below are taken care of for you.
