[quote=Anonymous]I think you are basically right about their choice in a gift being "off." If they want you to practice baby-wearing, they should provide you with a nice baby carrier and consider it simply part of the equipment in the house -- just like the baby swing, the kids' toys, etc. It's not a gift, exactly. And its not like you're going to keep it for ever and ever to use with other kids / your kids.

That said, this isn't a very big deal, in isolation. It was a poor judgement call, and that's all ... provided that you have a positive relationship in other matters. And it sounds like you do?

If you are worried that boundaries are blurred, I would gracefully find ways to assert the 'rules' ... but again, if your relationship is positive and you are pumped about this job, you want to be graceful about it. (Once you begin working for them again, I would stop offering child care for free, just to keep things clear for both parties. As an employer, I won't let my nanny volunteer her time, even though she tried a couple of times.)[/quote]
