Food

The Children's Place participates in the Michigan Child and Adult Care Food Program. Food service is provided by WMU Dining Services. We provide each child with a nutritionally balanced breakfast, lunch and two snacks. Our meals include "child-friendly" foods. Please let the Coordinator know if your child requires a vegetarian meal. Our menu is available for viewing both in the center and here.

If baby food is required, parents need to provide it. Meals must meet the guidelines set forth by the Michigan Child and Adult Care Food Program. Please see the Toddler Teacher for additional information. Unused food will be returned to you only upon your request.

In the operation of the Child and Adult Care Food Program no child will be discriminated against because of race, color, national origin, sex, age, or handicap. Any person who believes that he or she has been discriminated against in any USDA-related activity should write immediately to the Secretary of Agriculture, Washington D.C. 20250.

Confidential data

Your child's records: enrollment forms, health records, observation records, written parent-teacher conference reports and all other information about your child is confidential and will only be accessible to you, center personnel, teaching staff and a person designated by the state licensing department to review our records for licensing purposes.

Special needs

WMU Children's Place Learning Center is committed to making a sincere effort to accommodate children with special needs. If your child needs accommodations, please make an appointment with the coordinator to discuss your child's needs.
