 Creative Path Daycare does not provide any food. Parents are responsible to provide a healthy snack and lunch for the child. Our Nutrition policy is to encourage the development of good eating habits that will last a life time. Please do not send junk food, for example-pop, chocolate, potato chips, gum and candy. When one child has something they all want it. If your child arrives after the scheduled mealtime you are responsible for feeding them at that time. All lunches will be refrigerated. I will also be able to heat simple foods like soup, pasta or noodles. We encourage parents to only send healthy foods, snacks and drinks.

If your child would like to celebrate their birthday with other children, please send a cake or cupcakes for snacks. Other treats are welcome but not necessary.
