[quote=Anonymous]I am a nanny and have discovered that I am fiercely protective of my charges - more so than I was with my own kids! Yesterday, in a play gym, a large two-year-old hit my 14 month old charge (not hard - my charge didn't even cry) and moved to hit her again when I grabbed the little girl's hand and said "NO!" loudly enough for the little girl to cry. Last week, a little boy in my charge's music class grabbed an instrument out of my charge's hand and I grabbed it back!!! I surprise myself all the time with my subconscious, knee-jerk reactions to situations like this. I was a pretty laid-back mother and a preschool teacher so I am not unfamiliar with childhood scuffles... Any other nannies like me? [/quote]
