It is a good thing to know that you pay attention to things such as these when you are watching your charges. I know that as a parent I would feel so much more comfortable knowing that I have a nanny for my son that is observant enough to notice things such as you have mentioned. It sounds as if you have your hands full though with 4 kids to watch but the experience will be priceless to you later on. Also it is a benefit that their ages are spread out because you are able to observe the emotional reactions of children at several different stages.
