Food and Menu
Our food is healthy, nutritious and freshly prepared on the premises daily by our cook who holds a Level 2 Open College Network course in Nutrition. Menus are both fun and seasonal to continually simulate the children's imaginations and are rotated on a three weekly basis. All menus include a vegetarian/halal meat alternative and we also cater for any additional special dietary requirements your child may have. We provide breakfast, a two course lunch, a light tea and a morning and afternoon snack. Fresh fruit and drinks are also served to complement mealtimes, with fresh water additionally available all day. During all mealtimes the staff sit with the children to encourage social skills. In July 2009 Little Angels Nursery was awarded a certificate in recognition of achievement for The Gold Standard Healthy Snack Award. A healthy diet is a key factor in determining health in later life. Eating habits are established at a young age making the early year’s environment an ideal setting in which to influence a child’s diet. Children within the Nursery are given the opportunity to try, and to taste repeatedly, a wide range of nutritious foods. The aim of the award is to establish sound eating habits for life through the provision of healthy snacks between meals that meet the nutritional requirement of a growing child. Please see below a typical weekly menu. The babies follow a separate menu of freshly pureed vegetables and fruit in line with the parents wishes and their child's individual stage of weaning. All decisions regarding weaning are made together with you the parents. Sample Menu Week 1
