Are Your Children Enrolled In The CACFP?

Having my daycare provider enrolled in Heartland Child Nutrition is a definite asset for both her business as well as for the children. The kids are guaranteed that they will receive nutritious snacks and meals which are essential for their well-being. The children also thoroughly enjoy the special activities and menus that the provider utilizes from Heartland each month. The kids are learning more about healthier eating that will benefit them a lifetime!

My husband and I prefer to use a daycare that participates in the Heartland Child Nutrition Program as we feel the daycare has made a commitment to provide balanced, healthy meals and snacks.

Parents can easily find out if their child, who is being cared for by a licensed or certified home child care provider, is on the food program by simply asking their provider if she/he participates on the CACFP.

Further, child care providers must have on file a child enrollment form for each child claimed. This form is filled out by the parent.

Parents whose child(ren) are enrolled in the CACFP can be assured that the provider is serving well-balanced meals and snacks, participates in nutrition training, provides nutrition education to the children in their care, and is monitored three times per year.
