  At our nurseries we strongly believe in children eating a wholesome and varied diet. Therefore each nursery has a cook who prepares freshly made meals.Meal times are valued as social occasions and children are encouraged to serve themselves from serving dishes. Babies just beginning to eat solid foods have appropriate meals provided in accordance with parent’s wishes , and infant formula is usually provided for babies under a year old, with bottle feeds made up in our milk kitchen. Children are encouraged to drink water throughout the day and usually have milk mid morning and afternoon.

The cultural background, dietary requirements and food allergies of every child are respected, we work closely with parents to ensure that their child’s needs are met.
