Working with young children is fun, but it is a tough business. Child care professionals work from dawn to dusk — teaching, nurturing, helping build healthy habits with the children in their care. Interested in seeing how it all gets done? Meet three child care providers in this video series. Below, you will find two different tracks, depending on your specialty.
How Do YOU Implement Healthy Habits in Your Program?
Maybe your approach to serving healthy foods exceeds federal standards.

Or have you established a written policy about the amount and type of screen time allowed? Let us know how you promote healthy, active living.
