How We Approach Children’s Diets and Nursery Food

In the fundamental years of early childhood, one of the most important aspects that parents and caregivers focus on is nutrition. When considering a nursery in Redditch for your child, the quality of the food provided can often be a deciding factor. Here at Little Sneakers Childcare, we’re committed to offering well-rounded meals that don’t just fill bellies but also nourish minds and bodies too. If you want to know more about the cuisine we offer, keep reading our post below.

  • Our Approach to Child Nutrition

At Little Sneakers Childcare, we partner with a 5-star Specialist Catering Service to provide freshly cooked, ready-to-serve meals that cater to various nutritional needs. Our goal is to ensure that each meal is packed with essential nutrients that are critical for child development, while also being tasty enough to appeal to young palates. 

Our menu options include a hot two-course nursery lunch and an afternoon tea. For infants, we provide specific baby weaning menus that are designed to meet their unique nutritional requirements. Our catering partners are experts in food nutrition and childcare, and they source locally produced fresh ingredients, British Red Tractor meats, and free-range eggs.

  • Flexibility for Parents

We believe in giving parents the freedom to choose. You can either opt for our nursery meals or provide your child with home-prepared lunches or afternoon teas. For those who decide to prepare meals at home, we recommend that these are healthy and nutritious. 

  • Catering to Special Dietary Needs

Every child is unique, and so are their dietary needs. Whether it’s allergies, intolerances, or specific dietary practices due to religious or lifestyle choices, we have you covered. 

We work closely with our catering service to supply full, completely transparent ingredient packs for every meal served. This allows us to ensure food safety by checking for potential allergens daily and offering alternative dishes where needed. 

  • Awards and Recognitions

Our commitment to quality extends beyond the food we serve. Several of our nursery locations have achieved ‘Good Ratings’ from Ofsted, affirming the high standard of care and education we provide. These achievements inspire us to continue enhancing our services in all aspects, including nutrition.
