    Nutrition

    While we make all effort to feed the child, our staff will not force the child to eat food. Parents are encouraged to send the food as per their regional cuisine. Nutritional food is important for the overall development of the child.

The Parent Handbook provides new parents with an understanding of the mission, philosophy, policies, and procedures followed at our centre.
