No sleep at nursery

What, if anything, should I be asking nursery to do with regard to our 13mo DD lack of sleep. She is in nursery from 8.30am to 6pm and often when I go to pick her they tell me she's only slept 30minutes or 35minutes during that entire time. She wont sleep on the journey home either so she's then an absolute zombie or a screaming wreck by bedtime. I really thought the nursery would do more to get her napping longer during the day but they don't seem that fussed. Any suggestions of what I can ask them to do?

If it makes you feel any better my DD still has two naps a day until she was 22 months.....

My DD has just started nursery & she finds it hard to do 2 naps. I think what other kids do seems to excite her & not want to sleep. Once she does full days I'd prefer if she did a long single nap with the other kids (2 hours). She will settle easier & sleep better too. Not sure when babies are supposed to drop to 1 nap from 2?
