Nutrition and Menu
Nourishing Growing Minds and Bodies
At Eager Beavers, we understand that proper nutrition is essential for the healthy growth and development of children. Our commitment to providing balanced, nutritious meals ensures that every child receives the fuel they need to learn, play, and thrive. We offer a diverse and delicious menu that caters to various dietary needs and preferences, all while encouraging healthy eating habits from an early age.
Our Approach to Nutrition
Balanced Meals:
We provide meals that include a variety of food groups to ensure children receive the necessary nutrients for their development. Each meal includes fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins.
Fresh Ingredients
We prioritize using fresh, locally-sourced ingredients whenever possible. This not only supports our local community but also ensures the highest quality and taste for our meals.
Dietary Accommodations
We understand that each child may have specific dietary needs or restrictions. Our kitchen team is trained to handle allergies, intolerances, and preferences, ensuring every child enjoys their meals safely and happily.
Healthy Eating Habits
We aim to instill healthy eating habits in children by offering a variety of nutritious foods and encouraging them to try new things. Our educators also incorporate lessons about healthy eating into the curriculum.
Hydration
We ensure children stay hydrated throughout the day with access to water and healthy beverages, such as milk and natural fruit juices.
Special Events and Celebrations
At Eager Beavers, we also celebrate special occasions with nutritious and fun meals. Whether it’s a holiday, a birthday, or a cultural celebration, our menu reflects the joy and diversity of our community while maintaining our commitment to health and nutrition.
