Research shows a correlation between nutrition, health, and learning. As a child care provider, we play a key role in children's lives to show what it means to eat for good health and how important it is to eat a variety of foods.

JAAD's staff members have basic knowledge of nutrition and age-appropriate feeding practices, as well as meeting the nutritional need of each child. Our caregivers work closely with families to make sure proper food amounts are served in a consistent manner.
