Who does the Child Care Food Program serve?

Children 12 and younger are eligible to participate in the program. Approved providers can receive reimbursement for up to two meals and one snack per day, per child. In addition to receiving reimbursement for your daycare children, the program allows reimbursement for your own children per these guidelines:

• Your child is two weeks to 12 years of age.
• Your household income falls within the USDA income guidelines.
• One of your enrolled, unrelated, daycare children is eating the same meal you’re claiming for your own child.

How much reimbursement will I receive?

Home daycare providers receive monthly direct deposits based on the number of meals and snacks served to each child per day. The rate at which home providers are reimbursed is annually set by the federal government.
