I wouldn't ignore it.

I'd probably say something like: "Hi DCM, I want to touch base about Joey's schedule. Now that he's approaching 10 months and reaching some important milestones, I will be transitioning him into the daycare schedule. This means I will fulfill his "on demand" needs up to 1 year old (feeding him when hungry, napping as his needs cue me to) and then getting him on the same schedule as all the other daycare kids for routine purposes. Our schedule is X. Thanks!"

I usually give little ones until 15-18 months for the two naps/day schedule. So, I would add that in.
Point being, she should be told that daycare needs are different than home needs and group care means getting on THAT schedule, not vs/vs.
