Hi, we have a lady who looks after our 3 kids during the week.

We are both PAYE workers, so not too familiar with prsi, payroll, etc.

Duties are childminding in our home; pick up from school, bring home, get a snack, take to the park. The odd time babysitting at night - but I guess not any more.

It was quite irregular from last November to February as we had an afterschool, but the afterschool has closed down due to covid.

For the last month it has been more regular, 4-5 hours per day, weekdays.

She has still has other casual work as far as I know, but I don't have a lot of info.

I can see that I need to regularise this, but how best should I deal with the historic situation and revenue. We never really kept any records, and paid cash per hour more akin to babysitting.

Any advice welcome.
