Our Promise

We strive to build relationships with families, our community partners and develop ways to effectively care for children while educating them on sustainable practices, utilizing high quality products that are safe and consuming healthy foods.

Products

We use B-certified products for cleaning hands, dishes, materials and furniture.

Certified B Corporations are businesses that meet the highest standards of verified social and environmental performance, public transparency, and legal accountability to balance profit and purpose. B Corps are accelerating a global culture shift to redefine success in business and build a more inclusive and sustainable economy.

Our cleaning and sanitation practices go beyond standard licensing care. All items are sanitized after transitions. Deep cleaning is completed daily to ensure a healthy and safe environment for children and staff.

Nutrition

Children learn better when they maintain healthy eating habits at home and school. We continue to do our part by providing natural, organic, fresh and colorful fruits, vegetables, lean protein and whole wheat in all of our meals.

We serve breakfast, AM snack, lunch and PM snack that all adhere to the CACFP standards.

The CACFP nutrition standards for meals and snacks served in the CACFP are based on the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, science-based recommendations made by the National Academy of Medicine, cost and practical considerations, and stakeholder’s input. Under these standards, meals and snacks served include a greater variety of vegetables and fruit, more whole grains, and less added sugar and saturated fat.

Families can do their part by encouraging healthy eating and exercise at home.

The Kid’s Healthy Eating Plate is a visual guide to help educate and encourage children to eat well and keep moving. At a glance, the graphic features examples of best-choice foods to inspire the selection of healthy meals and snacks, and it emphasizes physical activity as part of the equation for staying healthy.

Sustainability

We create a positive learning environment that foster an appreciation for environmental awareness through sustainable activities and practices inside and outside of the classroom. We promote healthy lifestyles, critical thinking skills and discovery of the beauty of nature and their surroundings.

From growing seeds in the classroom, picking up trash along the areas of the center, dissecting plants, cleaning dirt from carrots that have been harvested and learning about the life cycle of animals cultivates an appreciation for others and their own environment.
