Maybe the 4 year old heard your rauncy moans and thought you were in trouble and came to check up on YOU?

Most 4 year olds don't read. How do you not know this as his nanny???

Dumbass, most four year olds CAN interpret simple signs. Nanny could even make a traffic light with only the red showing on one side of the sign and only green showing on the other side. There are five hundred other ideas similar to this she could make on a sign. "Read" doesn't always mean "read words." Open your mind a smidge.

Where are all of the posters getting (assuming) that OP was on duty. Nowhere in her post did it say so. Calm down people, she is a human being who has sex, let's all stop being so shocked.
OP- you know how to fix the situation, lock on the door and a casual mention to the parents as to why

I'm an MB and I would want you to tell me. You don't have to go into gory detail, but let them know that he walked in without knocking and request a lock.

Im not 00:45. He can read, there is no sign however that is a nice idea.

Also, tonight I am not on duty. My room is on the top floor (attic converted) and MB/DB and charges rooms are on the floor below. If he wanted to go to his parents he could have as they are right next to his room, he came up the stairs (and opened the door leading to the stairs) and came up to my room.

There should be a rule that he doesn't go upstairs to the top/attic floor without you. That means no open invitations, and not asking as he is at the door etc. It means he should be WITH you as you are going upstairs, and there is really never any reason he should be going upstairs with you unless you forgot something up there and wanted to grab it quickly and for some reason didn't want to leave him alone. That Is just bad manners for him to do what he did. He is 4, definitely old enough to know better. The parents really need to talk to him about this. And get you a lock for the door.

One, you should ALWAYS have a lock on your door when you're a live-in. Two, were you babysitting your charge tonight when you had your BF over? A 4 yr old should know better than to just walk in to a room without knocking and waiting for a reply first, and the 4 yr old should also be going to their parents room when they awake at night (unless you are in charge at the time) so that is another thing for them to work on.

I would mention this definitely as I think the parents need to address things with their child (what did he end up seeing?) and about his needing to respect your privacy and time off work. If he saw something, then they need to talk about that, and if he didn't other than seeing your BF was there, then they need to mention stuff about that. But it is all up to them about what to say etc.

You are right 1:23 yes im a live in and no there is no lock. But there is a door and a short staircase between the family's bed rooms and mine.

2 questions. Are you a live in? Do you have a lock on your door? Hopefully the answers are yes and no, respectively. Yes, you need to mention it before your charge does.

Are you that much of a hornball that you couldn't abstain from sex that 1 night you were on duty?

Op here. I'm actually sitting up concerned about this. I know that kids walk in on their own parents right? Part of my head is saying:

"Ok, it was dark. He couldn't have seen much right? I didn't do anything wrong."

The other part is saying:

"Tell MB before [johnny] does and she overreacts about it"

Tell her why your bedroom door needs (should have had) a lock. Done.
