Little Ones UK and their linked Lily’s payroll services are fantastic. I highly recommend the team and Aadnan who is the payroll agent that supports me has been exceptional.

We used Lily’s Payroll after hiring our first nanny, and as first-time parents navigating childcare, the administrative side of the process initially felt overwhelming. Finding Lily’s Payroll was such a relief. They took care of all the financial and HMRC-related aspects of employing a nanny and guided us through every step with clarity and care. They truly held our hand from start to finish, and without their support the administrative side would have been far more challenging. I would highly recommend Lily’s Payroll to anyone considering hiring a nanny or employee.

I've had a great experience with Lily's Payroll. My contact has been Shirley who is amazing. She's extremely responsive, very knowledgeable, and goes above and beyond to make sure I understand what's being sent to me. She's an absolute gem!

Lily’s Payroll was very helpful right from the start. They’re never too difficult to reach and every time I received satisfactory answer. Their knowledge is adequate and I find their service very friendly too. Personally I dealt with Pooja, who I would recommend to every potential client.

Pooja is the lady who very kindly look after my payrolls! She’s incredibly polite, attentive and kind ! I hate doing admin and find the U.K. system very complicated! Pooja makes sure to always keep me really well aware of every penny, where and when it goes! Thank you Pooja! I would be lost with you ! X
