Healthy Eating

Every child needs a well-balanced diet in order to grow up and become future stars. So here at Bright Beginnings we are committed to providing a varied, healthy diet with plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables catered to children’s need so as to support their learning, growth and play.

Our menu is planned, and food freshly prepared, by our onsite cook Claire.

Should your child have any allergies, special dietary, cultural or religious requirements let the nursery know through your enrolment forms and key person when completing your child’s individual care plan during your settling in visits and we’ll happy to work with you to create a healthy diet tailored to your child. If you child has allergies, we will complete an allergy management plan alongside your care plan to ensure that all meals are prepared to your child’s needs. Our 6-day rolling menu is updated in response to seasonal changes and children’s preferences.

For your peace of mind:

All staff who handle food are required to have up to date food hygiene certificates and everyone is carefully instructed in strict cleansing and hygiene rules

Our kitchen is registered as food handling department, which means we are subject under law to regular inspections and have gained a FIVE STAR Food Hygiene Standard Rating, awarded by Doncaster Metropolitan Borough Council in July 2023.
