Babysitting from Family Members

Hi, 

 

Just trying to do the right thing here. I babysat for my daughter, which I was paid for it should I claim that on my taxes?

Troubleshooting

No, you don't need to claim monies that were given to you for caring for your grandchild(ren). 

Troubleshooting

Even if I did it as part of my business? Since it was taking time away from my business to do other work. 

Troubleshooting

If you have a daycare business then yes, you would need to claim it as income.
