You might like to try a multi mount entry like

milly   myhost:/home/milly
es      /       myhost:/home/es \
        /data   otherhost:/home/data

Note that multi mount map entries mount and umount all their entries as 
a single unit because of the cross filesystem issues that can arise. So in 
this case /home/es and /home/es/data would be mounted and umounted 
together.
