[quote=Anonymous]I'm a nanny and I have slipped a couple times and called my charge "my boy" or "my baby".  And I do buy him books occasionally and bring him gifts when I come back from a trip but I have never given him anything without showing it to my MB first and asking her if it's okay for me to give it to him.  I do love the little guy.

That said, I would NEVER do anything my MB asked me not to do.  I do as I am asked regardless of whether or not I agree with it (I usually give my opinion once but then never mention it again).  My MB occasionally sends me short phone videos of the boy on weekends if he did something funny or for the first time but I have never called to see how he was doing or asked for a video!

It is impossible not to love the children in your care.  I would sit down with your nanny and tell her exactly how you feel and demand that she follow your instructions to the letter.  Obviously, never let her take care of your child for free (that would further blur the lines).
