Nutrition at Early Head Start

Early Head Start will help you provide the best nutrition to your child. We’ll do nutritional assessments to help you feed your child well, look at his or her iron levels, and make recommendations. You’ll even get to learn and try new foods at Baby Buddy Groups and participate in nutrition education activities.

We’ll also provide breastfeeding information and assistance, as well as loaning breast pumps!

All menus at EHS Baby Buddy Groups and Sibling Groups follow Child Nutrition Program Guidelines. We always make sure food served at EHS functions is nutritious.

If you or your child has special nutrition concerns, we will help you obtain the advice of a registered dietician.
