Quality meals for children
At our nursery, we know how important healthy, tasty food is for growing children. That’s why we work on a four-week rolling menu, giving little ones a variety of meals and snacks that are both nutritious and appealing. Our chef prepares everything with care, and we work closely with our PANCo (Physical Activity and Nutrition Coordinator) to make sure each menu supports children’s health and wellbeing. We’re always happy to adapt meals for any dietary needs, so every child can enjoy their food and feel included at mealtimes. Each day we provide breakfast, a wholesome lunch with a healthy pudding, tea, and an afternoon snack, with milk also available throughout the day.
We’d love to share our varied menus with you, including options for weaning, dairy free, gluten free, and vegetarian diets. Please ask our staff :)
"Mandy - thank you for keeping the children well fed with your lovely cooking… I have to tell my children Mandy has cooked dinner at home otherwise they don’t eat! "
"Libby always has such amazing energy and I know my child reacts so well to that too. On that note she has worked with my child on and off since he has joined the nursery she always comes and says hi to both them and myself which is always nice. Like to be fair, all of the staff, she is a real credit to St Andrews."
Recipe's you can use at home!
We love to bake and make cooking a regular part of our weekly routines in every room. It’s a wonderful way for children to explore new textures, develop fine motor skills, and learn about healthy eating.
All of our recipes are created in line with EYFS guidance, meaning they’re free from added sugar and salt — perfect for little ones to enjoy safely.
Take a look at some of our healthy baking recipes that you can try at home too! We hope you have as much fun making them as we do.
