Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You have some self-employment income so you will need to use the online Self-Employed software---or any version of the CD/download.   You need to pay self-employment tax for the babysitting income---you pay your own Social Security and Medicare, and possibly some federal/state tax since nothing was withheld.  If you had any expenses when you worked as a nanny you can enter them on a Schedule C.

 

All of your combined income---the W-2's for both of you and the self-employment income----goes on the same joint tax return.
