Daycare lunches

I switched to a new daycare and I have to make all of my son's lunches. Do daycare's normally peal things and cut things up for the kids? Or do I do that in advance?

Re: Daycare lunches

Depends on the teacher. I got a whole folder about cutting up food except for the bananas. Then the teacher had no problem cutting it for me. I sent in whole meatballs for DS who was 11 mons at the time and they cut it up along with the veggies and all. Maybe depends on the age.

I think I'd do it myself so I knew it was the proper size for my DC to handle at their age/stage.

Re: Daycare lunches

At our daycare they cut things up into small sizes...whenever they have/had a new teacher we just reminded them and told them how we wanted it done. There have been no issues.

Re: Daycare lunches

Honestly, I do it myself and wouldn't expect them to have to do it. There are too many kids for them to have to do that for and it would take too much time. It's just easier knowing it's done by me and I don't need to worry.

Re: Daycare lunches

Yeah, I think it might depend. We are starting daycare next week, and in my paperwork it asks you to have all the food already cut up etc. I'd ask the teacher.
