Nutrition

At The Robin’s Nest, we emphasize good nutrition and believe it is essential for good health and development. Our menu, planned by a registered dietitian, provides wholesome meals and satisfying snacks that meet federal and state requirements and guidelines established by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).

Meals are prepared fresh daily by the Phelps Dietary Department with a rotating menu on a four-week program. Our child nutrition program includes breakfast, lunch, and three snacks – morning snack, afternoon snack and evening snack. All meals are nutritionally balanced and meets requirements regarding food components and portion size. Our menus always include a variety of fruits, vegetables, whole grains and lean proteins.

If your child has a special nutritional need or requires an adaptation to our menu, we will work with your family to create a plan that adequately meets your child’s needs.
