Happy Healthy Eating
With family-style serving, we ensure that the eating experience within the nursery connects with the food you serve at home. We offer a carefully designed mix of familiar foods as well as encouraging children to explore new tastes and sensations. We will keep you updated with what your child likes and dislikes and will share our recipes with you if you would like to cook the same meals at home.
We offer two home-cooked hot meals per day, as well as having healthy snacks available at certain times during the morning and afternoon sessions. Younger babies have a separate weaning menu and we will work closely with you to ensure that the individual needs of your child are met.
We encourage the older children to develop independence by allowing them to self-serve their own food, and we aim to include educational elements wherever possible, by discussing the source of the ingredients and getting the children involved in mealtime preparations to create a happy, sociable experience.
