Dear Maria, Thank you for taking the time to write your review. With regards to parents bringing food from home, it is our policy to not allow food from home unless there is a medical reason to do so as some of our children suffer from allergies and intolerances. This policy helps in preventing accidental exposure of allergens to our children and ensures that we can continue to provide a variety of healthy snacks and meals which are cooked to a high standard. I hope the new timings for your child that are in place have helped now and if there's anything else we can help you with, please let us know. Kind regards, Nav Bansal
