    The fact they don't need care till March means they still have time to find alternate care and you still have time to replace with more regular families. If you don't want them anymore I would just let them know that now that you have started working with the various schedules - since each child comes with their own needs you are not sure that you will be able to handle the varied schedule and the not knowing from day to day what the routine is going to be. You could also indicate that you are unsure about how having a school age child will fit in with the group due to bus times and nap schedules if you think there would be a conflict there.

    In a sense you aren't saying you won't take them but just that you are not willing to commit at this point. Then just leave it up to the parent to look for alternate care, contact you again in the new year, her choice.
