[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish our daycare took more pictures to send to parents. I want to see what she's up to (and that she settles after drop off). I also wish they had fewer snacks. She eats breakfast at home, gets a handful of cereal mix upon arrival (when all the caregivers haven't arrived yet, so I think it's an easy way to keep multiple kids entertained), a morning snack, lunch, and an afternoon snack. It seems like a lot of food for a one year old! Besides that I am very happy. [/quote]

Virginia licensing requirements dictate when they have to serve food, I believe you cannot go more than three hours without a meal or snack being served which means at a minimum most daycares need to have an am snack, lunch, and pm snack. While it may seem like a lot of food, this is to protect the kids who don’t get fed enough at home for whatever reason or have really long commutes before getting home, which happens a lot in this area. I’m sure there’s a couple kids that don’t get home until 7 or 8 with traffic and eat late. [/quote]
