[quote=Anonymous]It is just "transition time", OP, nothing more.  He is paying attention to her because when he sees you or your husband, he knows nanny is leaving.  The baby is used to things a certain way with the nanny and has no idea why the nanny is leaving him.  It has nothing to do with who he wants or prefers to be with - he simply wants nanny to stay with him AND Mommy and Daddy.

Your post (and other posts like it) describe situations that are very uncomfortable to nannies.  Many a jealous mother has fired their nanny because they fear the child loves the nanny more than he/she loves the mother - which is IMPOSSIBLE.

I've explained to my MB that her baby reaches for me or cries when I leave because he has had my undivided attention all day.  When you have a husband and/or other children it is simply not possible or even healthy for your baby to have your undivided attention.  With you, your baby is part of a family.  With me, he is my sole object of attention and affection.  I also am with him for all of the "fun times" during the day - playing, going for walks, going to the park - while you are with him for night-time (which means bed!).
