We understand good nutrition in early childhood is essential for the normal growth and development of a child.
Nutrition at our childcare centre
We take nutrition at our childcare centre seriously, we know we take a role in your child’s life to develop healthy eating habits and strive to provide positive influence around food choices.
Our exciting and yummy children’s menus are specifically considered for morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea and late snack incorporate healthy, freshly sourced foods.
A rotational five-weekly menu provides children with variety and change in their diet. Meals are prepared with consideration for the age and food allergies of children. The infant and toddler menu is designed to suit individual needs.
Children are provided with filtered water to drink and are offered a selection of fresh fruit daily.
We cater for special dietary requirements and allergies for child at your request.
Habits learned in the early years can last a lifetime. It is during the formative years of early childhood that we can have a huge impact, not only on the current wellbeing of children, but their future health also.
