2 year old ROCKY! What do I do?

I currently nanny for an almost 3 year old boy and his 8 month old brother. Every time I walk in their house to start my shift the 2 year old automatically sees me, starts yelling " NOOOOO!" and is super mean and runs up to me trying to hit me but the mom and I stop him. It's hard to explain but it seriously makes me sad. I do everything for these boys and the 2 year old does this in front of his parents. As soon as they leave I am his best friend and it's like nothing ever happened. What do I do? I am tired of it and it makes me look bad. Why? What can I do to make him stop?

This is very normal actions for a child that age.Hopefully the mother does not drag it out delaying leaving ! But something I would do when a child would chronically cry when the mom was leaving is I would DISTRACT them with something silly like a dancing doll, some SO crazy they would stare at me! I would play the darn BARNEY song while pounding a tamborine. In many cases the kid was looking so forward to seeing me act silly it became a ritual. Just be aware it is not personal - obviously - as the kids love you with them when mom goes. It's so normal though it will happen with many other kids - good luck
