Just a side note - I would think she would feel so uncomfortable when she shows up to pick up her child, and I'm sitting outside, toys are put away, lights are off, and dck is the only one here. Right?? I know I would feel awkward enough that I wouldn't do it again 
Has she said WHY she's late? Is something new going on in her life or is she just bad at time management?
She isn't going to feel embarrassed because you are accepting her being late. Lights off and toys put away just says it's the end of the day. It doesn't say "you are late and that is unacceptable." She just sees she's the last pick up of the day.
