Do You Provide Baby Food Or Have The Parents Provide It?

[Patches]

I'm on the food program so I have to provide baby food, formula, cereal, etc.

I make homemade baby food and charge $8-$15 a week, depending on how much baby eats. If they are just starting out it would be $5 a week and then I keep track of how much we're eating and using. This is an at-cost service I do. It doesn't make me much money but I mostly do it cause I want kids to be well-rounded eaters.

I like the idea of giving the option.

"Option 1: You provide all baby food. No extra cost per week. I rinse and bag containers - they will have to be cleaned at home.

Option 2: I provide all baby food/cereal. From time we begin infant cereal UNTIL the time the infant is on beginning table foods at 9-12m (not jarred baby food or pureed food), enrollment cost will increase by $10/week."
