Abstract

It is the position of the American Dietetic Association that all child care programs should achieve recommended benchmarks for meeting children's nutrition and nutrition education needs in a safe, sanitary, and supportive environment that promotes healthy growth and development. Use of child care is the norm for America's families. It is essential, therefore, that nutrition professionals work in partnership with child care providers and with children's families to ensure that meals and snacks consumed in child care settings meet children's nutrition needs and provide them with excellent models of healthy dietary patterns. This position provides guidance and information about resources for nutrition professionals, health care practitioners, child care providers, and parents regarding meal plans, food preparation and food service, physical and social environment, and nutrition consultation and training for child care.

摘要

美国饮食协会的立场是，所有儿童保育项目都应在安全、卫生且支持性的环境中实现满足儿童营养及营养教育需求的推荐基准，该环境能促进儿童健康成长与发展。在美国，家庭送孩子去保育是常态。因此，营养专业人员与儿童保育提供者及儿童家庭合作至关重要，以确保在儿童保育场所食用的餐食和点心能满足儿童的营养需求，并为他们提供健康饮食模式的良好范例。本立场为营养专业人员、医疗从业者、儿童保育提供者及家长提供了有关儿童保育的膳食计划、食物准备与食物服务、物理及社会环境以及营养咨询与培训等方面的指导和资源信息。
