Savvy Nanny Payroll Services | The other guys… | |
Cost | $50/month + $50 Annual filing fee | A few other services go lower, but the service correlates with that. And service is essential to preventing costly mistakes.
Most other services go higher without offering measurably more service. In a few cases, less service. |
Service | Once you are enrolled you can enjoy phone, email, or chat six days a week. Monday through Friday 7.30 a.m. to 7 p.m. Saturday 8 a.m – 12 noon Central Time with our US based smart and friendly client service team. They help folks just like you with payroll questions day in and day out. That is all they do. They will help you with anything you need. | Lower-priced services generally do not offer client service of the quality, across the spectrum of phone, chat, and email, or may not offer US based service. Higher priced services may offer a little extra do-it-for-you on the setup of your account, but since you provide them information to do this anyway it doesn’t really save you much time or hassle. Few can match our hours of service. |
Client Involvement (how much you have to do) | As working parents, we know your desire for simplicity and automation. As experienced payroll providers, we know the pain points that cause mistakes and hassle. That is why we have made service improvements to make you just as involved as you need to be while we do the rest. Our service starts as soon as you are enrolled and are setting up your account. Setup is seamless and automated and there is always someone to help. Payroll can be as automated or hands on as you like. No worries, if you are hands on you will still get reminders from us. And because we “impound” or take out taxes each time you run payroll, you have nothing to fear about hidden tax costs as you pay as you go. All form filing and payments are done for you. Year-end filing is a breeze. You answer a few questions and all forms are filed for you. | In a lower-priced service you may need to mail or electronically file your own forms or payments. Our experience has taught us that even with automated reminders, clients sometimes miss payments and filings and that causes additional time and hassle. Not every payroll service impounds tax payments with payroll. If they do not, it may require you to approve payments quarterly and make sure you have adequate funds in your bank account. |

I have been using Savvy Nanny Payroll Services since October of 2013. Savvy Nanny has been a lifesaver for me. I pay one nanny weekly and the process of performing her payroll takes me under 1 minute each week. Savvy Nanny takes care of all of my taxes for me too. I appreciate that the service allows me to provide vacation pay and electronic funds transfer as well as emailing my nanny her paycheck information each week. I researched other services and as far as I can tell the services are very similar but the value is with Savvy Nanny Payroll Services. There have been a few times over the past few years where I had needed support from Savvy Nanny and the white glove support services were spectacular. I highly recommend using Savvy Nanny Payroll Services.

I have enjoyed using Savvy Nanny Payroll Services as an efficient and cost-effective way to take care of payroll obligations since we had our first child in 2013. In addition to making running payroll and tax filings simple and fast, when I first enrolled I received helpful communications to get started with the payroll process and customer service has been reliable and professional. I would definitely recommend the service to potential customers.

Your service is great. I especially appreciated the year-end explanation of tax responsibilities. It is hard enough being the caregiver for a spouse with dementia, but your company makes the complications of dealing with the IRS easy. Thank you.
