[quote=Anonymous]I would either go with "Sorry, our nanny is not comfortable picking up more than our charges" or "Sorry, our nanny does so much for us already and I really shouldn't ask her for more favors if I want her to keep working for us." Latter is a way of saying no with no lies. Watching someone else's kid is different from watching your own kids and maybe say your nanny is focused on making sure that her charges are safe 100% and adding two more makes it harder for her. Just saying no might hurt the relationship but by the way they ask you for pick up, I think any future playdates wouldn't be reciprocal anyway. You'd have 5 at your house and they'd have 1. Just find a way to say no but not be awkward when you run into them in the future.[/quote]
