Mealtimes are a sociable event within a relaxed atmosphere, however I do persuade the children to sit appropriately at the table and adopt good table manners. I will always encourage children to attempt to eat something new. I aim to accommodate the needs of breast-feeding and bottle-feeding mothers and happy to assist in weaning.

When a child has special dietary, cultural or religious needs I will aim to accommodate them as far as possible.

It is important that parents advise me of any food allergies, symptoms and reactions that a child may have and again I will aim to accommodate these needs.

I provide healthy nutritious snacks including fruit and vegetables and milk, water and juice will be freely available. Packed lunches and main meals are to be provided by the parents. However, I can prepare food if required.
