Nutrition
Our cooks provide delicious and nutritious freshly cooked meals that encourage your child to taste as many new things as possible, to support their rapidly growing bodies and minds. Our menu has been carefully selected and our kitchen uses fresh meat and seasonable vegetables, and we also provide the children with fresh fruit. We don’t add any salt, artificial flavourings or colouring and a lot of our food is home made. We will support your child with weaning and introduce different tastes and textures. We’re happy to cater for vegetarian diets and any other dietary requirements your child may have. You can be confident that every effort is made to ensure the correct balance of nutrients for your child.
