I recognize that by serving well-balanced, nutritious meals, I am helping both your child and my own grow up healthy. Your child will receive a morning snack, a hot or cold (depending on weather) lunch, and an afternoon snack each day. I will personally assist each child at mealtime to ensure that every child is well fed. It is my strong belief that a child can only learn well if he is fed well, with nutritious and balanced meals. If your child requires a special diet you may be need to provide snacks and lunch for your child.
In a day I would supply a mid morning snack (approx between 9:15-10am), lunch (11:30-12:15pm) and an after nap snack (3pm-3: 30pm).
