Child Care Food Program

Family day care providers that participate receive funding for nutritious, well balanced meals and snacks served to eligible children.

The nutrition program offers you partial reimbursement for the food you serve your child care children, plus much more. 

You receive:

A reimbursement check
Nutrition education & support
Meal & snack planning
One to one in-home consultations
Workshops & newsletters
Training

All at NO COST to you and TAX FREE

As long as you are providing child care in your home and feeding those children, then you are eligible for the program, regardless if you are private or state-funded.
