Food Safety
- Provide food that is safe to eat
- Prevent injuries when preparing, handling, and eating food
- Keep written policies, procedures, and health records
- Keep confidential health records to record children’s nutrition and health, keep track of food allergies, know whom to contact if you need a medical decision about a child, and inform the parent about the child’s health and nutritional status to follow-up on a specific problem
- Know and follow policies and procedures about caring for sick children
- Make sure all providers know how to prevent illness and injury to themselves and to children
One of the most important things you can do for children is to provide them with clean, safe food. Cleanliness is very important in a child care setting because it prevents illness-causing bacteria from growing. Keep hands, equipment, dishes, containers, and food clean and free of germs to help protect yourself and the children from illness.
