Led by Nemours Children’s Health, Healthy Kids, Healthy Future is a national effort to promote healthy eating and physical activity in child care. We partner with national and state organizations to embed best practices in early care and education (ECE) settings and systems. Nemours develops, implements, and shares resources for ECE professionals to create healthier environments for young children. Healthy Kids, Healthy Future continues the momentum started by Let’s Move! Child Care launched in 2011 as part of Former First Lady Michelle Obama’s Let’s Move! initiative to prevent childhood obesity.
