Nutritious Meals at Cairellot

At Cairellot, we understand the vital role that nutritious meals play in supporting children’s health and well-being. That’s why we have an in-house cook who freshly prepares all meals daily using high-quality, locally sourced ingredients, including fresh produce from our trusted butcher. Our carefully planned menu ensures a well-balanced diet, with fresh fruit available every day as part of the children’s meals.

Our meals and snacks adhere to the Government’s Setting the Table guidelines, ensuring a balanced nutritional intake throughout the week. Depending on your child’s care arrangements, we provide breakfast, a mid-morning snack, lunch, an afternoon snack, and late afternoon tea, all served with milk or water. A weekly menu featuring a variety of healthy options is displayed on our noticeboards, offering parents a clear overview of meal choices. The specific meals and snacks your child receives will depend on their nursery schedule.

Encouraging Independence and Social Skills

Mealtimes at Cairellot are an opportunity for children to develop key life skills and social confidence. We encourage children to take an active role by serving themselves where possible, fostering independence while providing support for our youngest learners. They dine together in a communal setting, which enhances their sense of inclusion, strengthens social skills, and encourages them to explore new tastes and textures alongside their friends.

Catering to Individual Dietary Needs

We are experienced in accommodating a variety of dietary needs and will tailor meals to suit any specific requirements. When registering your child, please inform us of any dietary preferences, allergies, or special instructions to ensure we provide the best care and nutrition for them.
