The Meal Plans for Daycares isn't free. You may be wondering what we could possibly be offering that free menus floating around on the internet don't.
1. We Guarantee No Deductions
If you follow our menus and get a deduction, we'll pay you the deduction amount and get in touch with your sponsor to rectify the issue. A cycle menu can't do that. In our experience, the average monthly deduction for home daycare providers is about $24.
2. We Stay Up to Date with the Constantly Changing Rules
As you well know, the rules in the CACFP are constantly changing. They can be overwhelming to keep up with, especially if you're new or busy (who isn't?). Our menus are always up to date with the most recent federal CACFP guidelines so you don't have to double-check if those menus you pointed out three years ago are creditable or not.
3. We're a One-Stop-Shop
Not only do we offer weekly menus created specifically for home daycare providers, but we offer the corresponding grocery list in two different formats. Did we mention it links to Walmart pickup? We also include a couple of optional recipes with each week. You can just serve the components from the menu, you can pick your own recipe, or you can use yours. You're in control here
4. We Follow Best Practices (that are always updated)
There are the CACFP rules, then there are the best practices which are a step above. The CACFP best practices aim for the best nutrition possible, not just the minimum requirement. Like the rules, these change all the time. Don't worry, we keep up with it so you don't have to.
5. We Have the Parent Preview
You know that new requirement that mandates there must be a copy of the menu available for the parents to see? Ever had a parent ask you about them and they're *kind of* a jumbled mess? We're to help. Included in each week is a pretty, printable version to hang and show the parents just how great of meals their kiddos are getting in your care.
6. TKM is a tax write off
That's right. Every monthly payment can be claimed on your taxes as a business subscription, office expense, etc.
We're guessing you're starting to question whether or not those free menus are really worth it or not. If you'd like to try the Meal Plans for Daycares see a sample week and decide for yourself.
