Concerning our Toddlers and Preschoolers: All are welcome to participate in our food programs.
Breakfast: A breakfast consisting of cereal, juice and milk is provided daily at 7:30 am for those children present. All children at the Center at breakfast time are offered breakfast.
Lunch: Lunch is catered in and served starting at 11:00 am. Please check with your child's caregiver to find out exactly what time your child has lunch. Menus shall be posted for your review. We shall also send a copy of the menu home at the beginning of each month. Meals include fruits, vegetables, whole grain breads and main dishes prepared from recipes of good taste which are nutritious, attractive and inviting.
Should your child be allergic to something on the menu please point it out to the Director or teacher. We take allergies very seriously and will work with you and your physician to ensure a food safe environment. You may want to bring a lunch from home that day.
We have refrigeration available to keep those lunches from home fresh. We do not have a microwave or other source of heating foods from home.
PSA=Preschool Snack Assignment: While the Center will provide a snack for the Toddlers in the afternoon, our Preschool Parents take turns bringing in the snack. On your child’s day he/she will be our “Happy Helper.“ On your lunch menu, below the daily lunch, you can see who has been assigned to bring a snack for that day. If your child is to bring a snack or birthday treat, please bring in a commercially prepared (as required by the Health Dept.), age appropriate healthy snack, for approximately 30 children and 3 staff. Happy Hearts shall provide the juice or milk to accompany your treat. Please, no frozen or "messy" items. Keep in mind "finger foods".
A prayer shall be said or sung before all meals and snacks.
