While her tone may have been unprofessional, I completely understand her reasoning. I am a daycare provider and I let potential parents, as well as current ones that if they are dropping off after meal times (after 7:50 for breakfast, after 11:45 for lunch) that they are not to expect that their child be fed as we follow a schedule. On rare occasions when parents are running late enough to miss a meal they know that they can bring a small snack, or lunch for their child to eat- yes, this does mean that they miss out some part of the day.

We have a parent who drops off at 12:30 Tuesday-Thursday and we told him if he was dropping off at that time child would have to be fed at home- and he always is....
