Food & Nutrition

We’re recognised for our dedication to healthy eating; Little Pumpkins Nursery is committed to providing healthy, nutritional and balanced meals, snacks and drinks to your child in order to provide and maintain the energy they need for a busy day of learning and development. 

Our menus are planned in advance and freshly prepared each day by our qualified Nursery Chefs. Our menus also change regularly to ensure that the children get to try new foods, flavours and textures on a regular basis.

During a full nursery day we provide: a wholesome breakfast, a healthy morning snack, a hearty two course lunch and a healthy afternoon snack as well as drinks throughout the day.

A healthy and varied diet is key to a happy, energetic child, which is why we serve hearty, home-cooked meals to our children every day.

We believe that educating children about food is also an exceptionally important part of their learning and development. For that reason, we don’t just provide healthy balanced meals, we provide them with the opportunity to learn about exactly what they’re eating as well as encouraging the use of manners and food etiquette.

Our menus are displayed inside each of our nurseries on a daily basis. If your child has any specific dietary requirements, whether based on allergies, medical conditions, religion or cultural requirements, don’t hesitate to let us know. Our Nursery Managers will be able to discuss this with you in order to come up with a tailored menu suited to their needs.
