I apologized to her and send her few pictures. Also a video that I capture right before the baby went home. A video how I potty train her baby (as per her request). NONE showing any swollen, red marks or any bruises on his forehead.
She thanks me and said "maybe her son bumped his head inside the crib at night"
I was so offended with this! For me why took her 26 hours to asked me? If the accident was at my house she can see the bruise around 6 pm or 7 pm or 8 pm on Monday evening.
What a bitch. You should tell her to find someone else. She is accusing you of abuse.

I work with mixed age siblings. They do play rough, sometimes so rough that one or both get hurt. I don't always know one bites if the area is covered by clothing. Hand and and leg bites are easier to spot because I can clearly see the hands and the legs during a diaper change. Unless I had a reason to take off the baby's sweater the arm bite could go unseen.

As adults, we're used to occasionally banging into things and not noticing. Babies are more sensitive. Maybe there are babies out there who will get bopped and knocked around and not cry...? I guess anything is possible.
And babies have different cries. If nanny has been with OP's kid for a while, she should know his different cries. I was never good at distinguishing DC's cry, but the cry of pain was VERY distinctive.
