Yes, I am funded. I had never thought of charging for food, until my coordinator suggested it. I don't think it came easily for her, suggesting I charge for food. It seemed like something they shouldn't tell us about, but wait for us to suggest it. Does that make sense? I can't think of the right way to describe it. She was very careful with her words. She never actually said "you should charge for food" She said other daycares did it, and as long as the food is healthy the parents are happy to pay it. And it was totally allowed, as long as I also give them the option to send their own food instead. And I'm allowed to say that I don't allow gluten, etc during daycare hours.
