Frequently asked questions

Yes, no cost and no account required — use it for a nanny, housekeeper, cook, or any other household hire without any usage cap.

This is a real employment agreement, not a contractor agreement — the template flags that the employer is responsible for payroll tax withholding and reporting as a household employer under state and federal law (the "nanny tax" rules), which is a genuinely different compliance burden than paying a freelancer or occasional service provider. If you're hiring recurring household help, that distinction is worth getting right before you sign, not something to skip over.

The specific role and duties (housekeeper, cook, driver, etc.), schedule and location, pay rate and how it's paid, time off terms, a confidentiality clause covering household and family matters, and an at-will employment statement. Since this is real employment rather than a contractor relationship, it should also make clear who handles the payroll tax withholding — that responsibility falls on the employer.
