A member asked:
Is it possible for my baby to become too attached to her nanny?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: Your baby being very attached to your nanny is a positive thing. If you are a loving, caring mother you will always be #1 in your baby's eyes and your nanny will be done on the list.

No: Attachment is a good thing. It will be easier to transfer secure attachment to you, the parent, than try to achieve it when the child never knew it.
