We used Zest for payroll for 2 temporary nannies and the service from Claire has been fantastic. Always helpful when I had questions, efficient service with weekly/monthly payroll and patient when I had recruitment issues! Highly recommended.

Claire was super helpful with setting up a payroll for a short term nanny. She fully explained and ran the whole HMRC process, and made everything very smooth for me. Thank you very much and will be back in contact in the future.

Report
Claire was fantastic. We only needed payroll help for a few months while we employed a temporary nanny, so the fact that I could pay month by month for her accounting support and advice was brilliant. She responded quickly and explained everything. Highly recommended!
