Meals
Mansfield Discovery Depot participates in CACFP-Child and Adult Care Food Program. Breakfast, lunch, and an afternoon snack are included in your tuition. Our nutritionally balanced meals are prepared in our full-service kitchen by an experienced cook who recognizes young children's food preferences and eating habits. Meals are social times and conversation is encouraged.

In partnership with the Town of Mansfield, Mansfield Discovery Depot is proud to offer services subsidized by grants from the State of Connecticut Office of Early Childhood for families who need them.
