If you were an admin assistant, would you pick up your bosses cleaning, get his coffee and buy his wife's birthday present? No, you wouldn't. You can't expect a woman caring for 5 children to be able to safely care for 4 other children while wearing your baby. If the caregiver injures her back wearing your baby and caring for the other children, you and the other parents are on the hook for her sick time and you may find yourself looking for new daycare because the other parents resent you and want you gone.
