[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your SIL was reaching out for help as she settled into a new place, and you essentially slammed the door shut in her face. She was asking you for the occasional favor, not knowing the dynamics of having a nanny. Send her an email and apologize for being so harsh. Offer some suggestions as to how you found babysitters. If your nanny might be willing to take them occasionally, for a fee or not, let her know that too.[/quote] +1 My sister-in-law and I live a mile of each other as well and we do playdates/carpooling all the time. I don't see how it was out of line for her to ask you - it could be a win-win. She could go to an appointment (which is a pain as a SAHM - I used to be one) and the kids could play. [/quote]
