OUR FOOD
OUR FOOD PHILOSOPHY - Nutrition Matters
We are a daycare committed to the total well-being of your child. A balanced, whole-foods diet is extremely important for your child’s development and overall wellness. Our tasty and freshly prepared meals help children create lifelong healthy habits around food.
Our Staff
We believe in complete care, and we’re aware of the importance of nutrition in raising happy, healthy kids. We provide food that is both nutritious and delicious; this helps children understand that there doesn’t have to be compromise between health and taste!
Our staff are certified in food and nutrition ensuring tasty and healthy go hand in hand. We also see eating time as a great opportunity to instill important social skills in children. Our family-style approach to eating fosters independence and helps kids bond with their playmates as they practice their table manners.
