Meals & Nutrition
At A Parent’s Dream Childcare LLC, we believe that proper nutrition is essential for a child’s growth, development, and overall well-being. Our meal program is designed to provide balanced, nutritious, and delicious meals that support healthy eating habits.
Nutritional Standards:
- Meals follow USDA guidelines for balanced nutrition.
- Fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins are included in our daily meals.
- We limit processed foods, added sugars, and high-sodium items.
- Milk, water, or 100% fruit juice is provided with meals.
Special Dietary Needs:
We accommodate dietary restrictions, allergies, and food sensitivities. However, families must provide their own meals for:
- Religious or cultural dietary restrictions.
- Specialized diets (vegan, gluten-free, etc.).
- Severe food allergies requiring specific meal preparation.
Parents must notify us in advance of any dietary restrictions and provide documentation from a physician if necessary.
Mealtime Philosophy:
- We encourage children to try new foods and develop healthy eating habits.
- Meals are served in a family-style setting to promote social interaction and self-feeding skills.
- We teach children about nutrition, healthy choices, and proper table manners.
For any questions or to discuss your child’s dietary needs, please contact our office.
Thank you for trusting A Parent’s Dream Childcare LLC to provide your child with nutritious and delicious meals!
