3 month old napping?

I nanny for a 3 month & 8 month old. They take 2 naps, at 10 & 2, for 2 hours ea. nap. (Ideally)
8 month old does GREAT on this schedule, 3 month old WONT sleep for more than 15-20 mins. She wakes up SCREAMING, which wakes the 8 month old.
She'll sleep the full 2 hours if I hold her, she'll also sleep in her carseat. But not in her crib! It's driving me crazy, and depriving the 8 month old of his quality naptime! What should I DO!?
Sorry, to clarify--
Mom asked me to get her on a schedule because she doesnt know what to do anymore.
And the kids are already seperated into 2 rooms, and I shut both doors, but she's got this PIERCING scream lol that could honestly wake the dead.

My baby is 3 months old and would never manage a routine like that yet. I find that about an hour after she has been fed ( around every 3 hours), she will nap for about 30 mins. She wakes at 7am and goes to bed at 7.30 pm usually so she has 4 to 5 short naps a day and then sleeps all night. Like your baby she will sleep for longer if out and about in the pram or the car but she still needs more than 2 sleeps during the day.
