I participate in the Coordinated Child Care Food Program of Pinellas, Inc. They use Minute Menus systems. I am monitored in my home at least twice yearly by a Coordinated Child Care Food Monitor. Some of the things that are observed during her visit may include: MEAL OBSERVATION That I maintain sign in and out forms for all children in care. The meal observed contains all required components. That I served proper portion sizes. Cereal products contain no more that 10 grams of sugar per serving. The meal is served at a safe temperature. “Whole” fruit and vegetables are served at least twice a week at breakfast and twice a week at snack. HEALTH, SAFETY, AND SANITATION Refrigerators are maintained at 41 degrees F or below and freezers are maintained at zero degrees F or below . Cleaning supplies are stored separately from food. The children and I practice hand washing prior to eating. There are no obvious fire, health or safety hazards. Sample Menus may include: Breakfast: waffle, mixed fruit and milk Lunch: chicken, mac N chesse, green beans, peaches & milk Snacks: string cheese, whole grain crackers & water; apple slices, peanut butter & water; baked apple sprinkled with granola & milk |
