Food & Menu’s

Healthy nutritious food essential for growing minds and bodies

Poppins Day Nursery offers a lovely, healthy 4 week menu for the children’s mealtimes. In keeping with our homely environment, we are delighted to fuel our children’s minds and bodies with nutritious, home cooked meals that are freshly prepared and served daily by our professional cook, who is always available to discuss the individual dietary needs of your child.

Our healthy eating policy is a no pressure approach and encourages meal times to be a social, enjoyable experience rich in conversation and time. We think it is important to educate children in healthy choices and do so in encouragement at meal times. Throughout the year we like to make the most of our seasonal fruit and vegetables, grown and picked by the children, by incorporating these into the children’s snacks and meals.

We can work alongside parents to accommodate any dietary requirements and current menus are displayed on our parents notice board or can be emailed upon request. A full day includes, a brunch snack during the morning, a healthy two course meal at lunch time and a light tea in the afternoon. You can see a selection of our delicious rotating menus and some example dishes prepared by our brilliant cook Amanda below.
