Goat for Mary Poppins? (5)
I believe the answer is:
nanny
'goat' is the definition.
(nanny is a kind of goat)
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for nanny that I've seen before include "butter" , "eg Mary Poppins" , "cares for child?" , "Issue tender" , "Undue government interference with personal choice?" .)
