Nutrition

At D&J's Creative Care, we believe that a major part of building a healthy developmental foundation includes a healthy, nutritious diet. We provide healthy snacks and nutritious meals for the children.  We also have fun baking days where the children get to experience measuring and stirring ingredients, as well as decorating.
