Where are you located because you may be required to have Coleman's comp. Ins. Even if not required, you should still get it to protect yourself.

If she has tricare prime, they pay a minimal monthly amount depending on rank and very low co-pays. Don't feel bad about not providing it.



Thanks so much! Good idea.

OP here.
Sorry I am not as smart as you are. I am just seeing on here about how everyone else is proving health insurance or a stipend and wondered if it was a requirement. This FTM is still trying to learn about the nanny world.

She's probably only vaguely aware of the rules of the ACA (which does require employers to provide insurance). It doesn't apply to her because she doesn't have enough employees, but it's hardly a suspicious question.

No, you don't have to provide her with insurance as her employer. You need a certain number (50 I think?) of employees before you're required to provide insurance."

Even if she didn't have coverage you are not required to provide it. A lot of nanny employers give monthly allowances so the nanny can buy their own.

My potential nanny's health insurance is already covered through her husband's military retirement coverage, which has a very nice package. She doesn't want any extra coverage. Am I still required to get her separate insurance since I will be "employing" her?
