Food

The food that we provide at Early Years Childcare is nutritious and well balanced. We ensure it is low in sugar and contains natural ingredients wherever possible. Food is seasoned with herbs and other ingredients, as salt is not added to our food. After meals we always ensure that the children brush their teeth.

Our chef at Brighton, Sandra Down is fully trained, and has been at our Harrington Road nursery for many years. Owing to her years of experience she is able to cater for varying Medical dietary needs children may have. For more information concerning food please speak to your nursery manager.

Brighton nursery's kitchen holds the top-level food hygiene award from Brighton & Hove Council, as part of a scheme run by the Food Standards Agency.

At meal times, children are encouraged to serve themselves, and by doing so they develop important skills and hand to eye co-ordination.
