Holy crap, this mom is WAAAY over the line! She is treating you like her private nanny. She's just making stupid excuses for the baby's behaviour and blaming it on you. Toys or snacks every time she's in the stroller? PJs for naps? Specific teethers at specific times? She's not teaching her child proper manners or interaction with other kids. I don't mean "please and thank you" but at 17 months she's plenty old enough to know not to bite and pull hair. If mom is making excuses for this now instead of teaching her child social rules, and expecting you to do the same thing, this kid is going to get worse and worse.
I agree with the above - your daycare, your rules. She's treating you like her own personal nanny service. She's grown accustomed to "extra" perks - changing schedules, breakfast, and all the crazy requests. For my own sanity, I wouldn't do ANY of those things. If she wants a nanny, she can go pay for one and boss them around to her heart's content (until they quit on her, of course)
I'd terminate immediately. Say you can no longer accommodate her needs re: hours, changing schedules, and a major difference in discipline styles. Get her out now before the baby starts getting worse - because she will - and before mom tries to take even more liberties with what she is asking you to do.
