If my mother provided child care how would I show how much she was being paid? Can I still mark her as a child care provider if she is a dependent but was receiving pay?

my relative watches my child while I work and I pay her a certain amount per hour. my relative is also my dependent. I want to know if I can still add her as a child care provider.

If your childcare provider is also your dependent----you cannot claim the childcare credit.
