What could be a better nanny for an active little baby than a kitten? Especially a patient, sweet one sitting in the crib, while the household hustle and bustle goes on around them as she keeps her "charge" entertained.

Perhaps all babysitting duties should go the dogs and cats, as Locker Dome ponders, as this pairing seems to work splendidly.

And work is precisely what this beautiful little Siamese kitten is doing. She is keeping her eyes and her paws on the little energetic bundle of joy.

Nothing is holding the kitten there - she is free to come and go as she pleases - but some animals find that special bond with their chosen human and perhaps she sees spending time with the innocence of a baby irresistible.

Placing her little kitty paws on the baby's leg is adorable as she makes sure the baby knows he is in safe company, according to The Animal Rescue Site. And the baby keeps flailing and kicking like little babies do.

The kitten does appear mesmerized by the baby's flailing limbs, says Viral Nova, but we think the innocence in still there for both nanny and baby. It's just glimpse into the wonderful bond these two are going to have as they both grow and navigate life together - which we all know is always better when you have a best friend along for the ride.
