There are two relevant options for /etc/exports, but I will quote
directly from man(5) exports about crossmnt - you can investigate
nohide if you wish yourself.

crossmnt

This option is similar to nohide but it makes it possible for clients
to move from the filesystem marked with crossmnt to exported
filesystems mounted on it. Thus when a child filesystem "B" is mounted
on a parent "A", setting crossmnt on "A" has the same effect as
setting "nohide" on B.
