[quote=Anonymous]When I was a nanny I would occasionally purchase a small gift for the children (max of $5 and it happened maybe once every 2 months) and while I was incredibly close (like an Aunt) I don't recall ever calling them my babies. Christmas gifts were a small toy and a scrapbook for the parents. 5 years later after they moves out of state and DH and I had our own child we are still close with the family and plan a yearly trip to visit. We did occasionally text over the weekend but normally football sparing on Sundays (little rivalry between DB and myself). I think you may need a discussion about boundaries, but that really risks your relationship w/ her at this point potentially making things very awkward. I find the undermining of your requests the most troubling. If you have a discussion make sure you do the layered technique. Start with something positive, then something she needs to work on, then something positive.[/quote]
