Food

The food that we provide at Early Years Childcare is nutritious and well balanced. We ensure it is low in sugar and contains natural ingredients wherever possible. Food is seasoned with herbs and other ingredients, as salt is not added to our food. After meals we always ensure that the children brush their teeth.

Our cook at Crawley is fully trained and has been cook at Crawley for nearly 8 years. She is able to produce different meals that cater for various medical dietary needs children may have. For more detailed information concerning food please speak to your nursery manager.

At meal times, our children are encouraged to serve themselves, and by doing so they develop important skills and hand to eye co-ordination.
