Food & Nutrition

Beltway Kids Academy will provide a breakfast snack and afternoon snack.  Parents will be responsible for providing their child’s lunch.
 
Beltway Kids Academy will provide a light breakfast snack during arrival time and will be served until 9:30am.  An afternoon snack will be served around 2:30 pm.  Parents will be responsible for packing your child a healthy lunch that will require limited prep and no heating by teachers.  Lunch will be served around 11:30 am.  Some things to keep in mind when packing lunches:

• Please make sure all food is cut up age-appropriately.
• Please do not send any carbonated drinks or red juice drinks.
• Children 2 yrs. and up will be expected to be able to feed themselves. 
• Please do not send glass containers.
• Do not send food that needs to be heated up or refrigerated (the exception to this will be infant rooms…birth-18 months).
• If your child does not have lunch by 11:00 am, we will provide a small lunchable, fruit and milk.  You will then be charged $10.00 per lunch.
• Beltway Kids Academy is not responsible for its nutritional value or for meeting the child’s daily food needs.

WE ARE A NUT FREE FACILITY.

Please make sure that as you are packing your child’s lunch and/or snacks (should you want to bring a snack other than what we serve) you keep this in mind.  If we are having a holiday party or you want to bring in some goodies for your child’s class, it must be pre-packaged and have the ingredient label attached so we know what’s in it.  With that being said, no peanut products at all will be allowed! SunButter would be an acceptable substitution.
