Nutrition
At our daycare, we understand the critical role nutrition plays in a child's growth and development. Proper nutrition supports cognitive function, physical health, and emotional well-being, laying the foundation for a healthy future.
We provide two nutritious snacks and a hot lunch daily, following Canada's Food Guide. Our dedicated cooks prepare healthy, home-cooked meals on a 5-week rotation, ensuring a diverse and balanced diet for all children.
The Daycare ensures that:
-
Menus are prepared in accordance with Canada's Food Guide.
-
Menus are planned in advance and shared with parents.
-
Food is served within three (3) hours of the previous meal or snack.
-
School-age children receive meals during the noon lunch period and snacks if they stay for more than one hour after school.
-
Special diets are accommodated, either prepared by the daycare or the parent, at our discretion.
-
Parents may bring non-allergenic treats (e.g., peanut-free cake or cookies) for special occasions, with prior notification to the Executive Director/ Director.
-
All food is purchased, prepared, and distributed efficiently, sanitarily, and promptly.
We are committed to providing a nourishing environment that supports the health and well-being of every child in our care. Explore our sample menu and some of our favorite recipes to see the delicious and healthy meals we offer!
