We love food – we believe good healthy food promotes healthy, happy children!

Our Nursery Cook- Some of our food is freshly made daily by our very own nursery cook! Jennie Wilson, Simon’s mother. She has catered all her life at various events. Jennie has been at Napley since we opened in 2005 and has extensive experience within the industry.

We have recently employed a new Kitchen Assistant, Alison, to assist our team in providing nutritional and well balanced meals to our children here at Napley.

Meal times are a happy and social part of the day at Napley, where both staff and children sit together at the table in a family atmosphere. Children are encouraged to sit at the table and use good table manners, whilst also being taught to use their knives, forks and spoons correctly.

The children are also encouraged to try all food and drinks; however, individual dietary needs/choices are always taken into account. Please provide any dietary details on your enrolment form or notify a member of staff.

The children have access to fresh drinking water throughout the day, we provide open cups for our babies, toddlers and pre school children to ensure we are encouraging their independence and developing their communication and language skills. Milk is also offered at morning snack time.

The baby meals can be prepared specifically to meet the current stage of the child’s development; i.e.; pureed, liquidised, finger food, etc.
