Nobody is forcing you to help people. If you think there's not enough information to answer a question, it's easy to just ask the OP.
Anyone with half a brain that has spent as much time on this board as you claim to would know what kind of information was needed.
Even when questions were asked, the answers were so vague or incomplete that we were no further forward.
If you expect people to help you, you need to meet them halfway. Your attitude comes across as if you think you are doing us some sort of favour. You are not!Gone ... or have I?0 -

I didn't say that you had half a brain, I do not know you well enough to make such a judgment. Therefore you must have come to that conclusion all by yourself!Gone ... or have I?0 -
I was a registered childminder and charged 3.50 an hour. You still get ctc and wtc even if you earn below minimum wage as a self employed person.0

Childminders can be self employed but nannies normally can't. However, you're right that self employed workers can claim tax credits. The amount you charge one client isn't the same thing as receiving minimum wage though.0
