Read the text and answer the question.

Sunnybrook Daycare has updated its pickup schedule for the summer term. Children must now be picked up by 5:30 p.m., thirty minutes earlier than the previous 6:00 p.m. cutoff, due to reduced evening staffing. Parents who arrive after 5:30 p.m. will be charged a late fee of $1 per minute. Families needing extended care can enrol in the after-hours program, which runs until 6:30 p.m. for an additional monthly fee. Parents are asked to notify the front desk by 3 p.m. if someone other than a regular guardian will be picking up the child that day.

According to the passage, why was the daycare pickup time moved earlier?
