How much is a nanny paid in Switzerland?
A nanny is paid the wage you agree as the employer; booked through Helpore, that is the rate the Helper sets, never below Helpore's floor. The federal standard contract for domestic work does not cover a nanny whose main task is childcare, but a canton or city minimum wage can. The wage calculator checks a wage against the floor.
How much does it cost to hire a nanny in Switzerland?
Hiring a nanny costs the rate the Helper sets with holiday pay on top, plus the contributions you add as the employer, and the Helpore fee, shown upfront, when you book through Helpore. That rate is never below Helpore's floor or a minimum wage that applies where the work is done. The wage calculator works out your monthly cost.
How much does a nanny cost per hour?
Per hour, a nanny costs the rate the Helper sets with holiday pay on top, plus the contributions you add as the employer, and the Helpore fee when you book. A day is the hours you agree, each at that hourly price. Each Helper profile shows its price, and the wage calculator shows the contributions for your canton.
Do nannies get paid more than babysitters?
Not by a fixed rule: on Helpore each Helper sets their own hourly rate, so the rate follows the Helper, not the title. The federal standard contract for domestic work covers neither a nanny nor a babysitter whose main task is childcare. Paid childcare in your home makes you the employer either way, with contributions on top where due.
How do I find a nanny?
Compare public Helper profiles for childcare by area, languages, experience and availability, and choose who fits your family. Profiles separate self-reported childcare experience from recorded first aid or criminal record evidence where present. Your household is the employer of the Helper you choose. If you already know someone, Helpore Admin Light and Helpore Admin support the administration.
