Abstract
Nova Scotia has long been concerned about the health and welfare of young children in child care centres. However, with increasing rates of chronic disease in the province and more knowledge about the influences on the development of healthy eating behaviours, change to the way we support young children is needed. In 2007, the province embarked on a revision of the regulations and guidelines that promote healthy eating in regulated child care settings. This video tell the stories we heard and represent to us a reminder that, although we may individually support young children in different ways as they learn to eat, we are all trying to achieve the same thing; to help children grow up with a healthy relationship with food that will last them a lifetime!
