Children and Nutrition

Proper childhood nutrition can reinforce eating habits that contribute to children’s overall well being.  These habits reinforce a healthy lifestyle that impacts one’s life from childhood to adulthood.  Sanford Children’s is committed to children and their development of healthy lifestyle habits. As the community outreach arm of Sanford Children’s, CHILD Services’ staff is able to connect the many resources of Sanford Children’s and the community together to meet the needs of children and families. Through services and information, trained staff are available to assist parents, child care providers and early childhood teachers in obtaining information on children and nutrition.
