8mo early morning wake ups and daycare woes

Baby boy is 8.5 months and still doesn’t sleep at daycare so on days that are later pick ups like 4pm, he’ll only have slept 1 hour total. So naturally his last wake window is 4 hours, this leads us to a 6:30 bedtime. Last night he did his longest night stretch 11 hours (yay!) with a 5:30 wake up. But now what? Start the day? We are trying to give him a bottle to see if he will sleep more but 11 hours seems like a full night of sleep, but 5:30 into a day of minimal daycare naps seems terrible. I’m not sure what to do? I really wish he could just learn to go over the 30 minute mark at daycare 😞 he can sleep for two hours at home (though I cap his naps to make sure a maximum of 3 hours of day sleep), so I don’t think he’s lower sleep needs because he’s genuinely happier when he gets his 14 hours of sleep in total. With daycare we are barely hitting 12 most days. He falls asleep independently, we do black out shades and noise machine, room temp is 73. He’s been crawling for 3 weeks now and maybe has his first tooth coming in. Formula fed and night weaned at 6mo.

Sigh :( anyone else in the same boat or have recommendations?
