Daycare and homemade solids

How do you send homemade solids to DC? Frozen? In plastic or glass? Do they serve it cold or warm? I'd rather that things now be defrosted in plastic, but they won't serve it in glass - do I have them warm/defrost in glass and then xfer to plastic?

    In plastic Gladware containers. We just apportion out from the main container the night before. We never froze / defrosted his food though. We ask them to warm up his food just enough to take the chill out. I am okay with that amount of warming up of the plastic.

    I don't use daycare, but what we do is take out the solids the night before and store in Rubbermaid snap containers in the fridge.  We warm in the same warmer that we warm the bottle in, so it's hot water.  We warm in a Beaba BPA free plastic container with a lid.  However, the writer of the blog that I used to do my foods does microwave her solids for a few seconds to give to her LO.

    As far as I know, our daycare serves his homemade solids cold unless it's still frozen, which it sometimes is. I send it in BPA-free "take and toss" containers, or the baby cubes they were frozen in, depending.

    Would you be comfortable sending it in BPA-free plastic for them to warm up there?

    I always froze them into cubes and send them frozen in ziploc bags, enough for a week at a time.  I microwaved them until they were thawed in plastic bowls and DC did the same.
