Child Care Food Program
Nette's Kid Academy participates in the Federal Child and Adult Care Food Program, which means that I am reimbursed a certain rate for each meal or snack offered to a child, in return for serving wholesome foods that follow a set nutrition guideline and receiving at least 2 hours of nutrition training per calendar year. I may not charge parents for these meals/snacks, so the cost of child care is held down for the parents.
Each month I prepare a menu to pass out to the parents and to post here at the daycare. This helps me when grocery shopping, and helps the parents know what meals were served as well (nothing is more frustrating than being excited about fixing something for supper only to find out your child had it for lunch!!!)
