Hellobee Boards

All the food is included--milk, food, snacks, everything, once she's off baby food. I give her an on-the-go breakfast on the way there and she has a second breakfast with the other children later in the morning. I don't send special food or favorite snacks or anything. I figure it's a good way to diversify her palette, because she'll see the other kids eating things (and they always want what the other has!) and eat them. It's also a good way for me to find out what she's liked to eat, that maybe I wouldn't make at home! Like lo mein noodles!

Everything is included in our monthly tuition. His rate actually went down when he turned 1. If I pick him up past 5pm, they feed him dinner as well.

Food and drinks are included in the rate. This includes lunch and two snacks.

I wouldn't worry about the rate because as @wonderstruck said, infant care is typically a little more expensive anyway because of ratios.

However, I'm interested that everyone is saying food is included! My LO goes to two different preschools right now (M/W and T/Th) and we are looking into starting an in-home daycare when one of them is closed over the summer. I pack her lunch for both her current schools, and milk for one of the schools. I assumed I would do the same sending her to a sitter.

We send both Lo's to an in home daycare. For LO#1 I pack his lunch and snacks and LO#2 her breast milk bottles.

At all of the in home day cares we've used (4! ), once LO was off of breastmilk or formula, the daycare provides the snacks and food. Right now, they give LO breakfast, morning snack and lunch. If she seems hungry they offer an afternoon snack, but most of the time we give her something when we pick her up.
