Federal tax rate seems wrong

Hello, 

 

I recently filled out this year's profile in Turbotax and am getting a large unexpected number for my Federal tax rate. I hired a in home nanny last year and it's saying I owe Household employment taxes of ~$3,300. This doesn't make sense since we only paid her around $14000 total. We paid state taxes (~$180 at 1.31% rate) and fed taxes ($42). TurboTax is saying we now need to pay an extra $3300 for this household employee. Can you please provide info on how to fix this? 

 

Thanks
