Depends,  if the nanny receives a W-2 for being a nanny then for Federal Tax Purposes it would be an Employee Business Expense which are no longer deductible under the current tax law.

 

It is possible that mileage for a W-2 employee is deductible on the state income tax form if you need to file a state return.

 

If the nanny is an independent contractor and receives and 1099-Misc form for her income then she can deduct business mileage on her Schedule C Business Income and Expenses.
