As part of my service, I can provide your child with the following meals and snacks:

 

• Breakfast

• Mid-Morning Snack

• Lunch

• Mid-Afternoon Snack

 

For drinks children are offered water, milk or fruit juices.

 

I try to encourage healthy options and follow advice from the Nutritional Guidelines for the Under 5’s. I am happy to discuss menus with parents and cater for children with different food allergies and cultural/religious requirements.

 

I am also happy to support you if you are weaning your baby. I have a blender and can make pureed dishes if required.

 

Unless we have previously agreed as part of a special celebration, I would request that you do not provide your child with sweets or treats from home. This may cause upset to other children who do not have treats and also poses a danger to any children who suffer from allergies or intolerances.

 

I will record what your child has eaten and approximate amounts in their contact diary. If you have any concerns regarding diet/menu/quantity please do not hesitate to discuss it with me.
