[quote=Anonymous]The baby I nanny for is 13 months (I still say baby out of habit. He's almost-walking and almost-talking, but is still super cuddly and baby-like, FWIW). Anyways, when his mom comes home at the end of the day, he screams when she picks him up and lunges towards me. She doesn't care, thinks it's funny, and has reassured me when I awkwardly apologize or try to explain why he's acting like that ("oh he's been cranky all day..."). The truth is, babies are just freaking like that. If they're in a funky mood, they will choose to just put up a stink about the weirdest/random things. But how do you explain that to MB? I'm not really sure. I like the PP's suggestion of telling an anecdote here and there about a previous charge doing the same thing. Or even a story of a charge doing the oposite (freaking out when nanny takes him). I think a few stories is a good way to break the awkwardness without hitting too close to home.[/quote]
