High quality care for babies and young children in and around Eastbourne
Meals and nutrition
At Bluebell Nurseries we believe that it is vitally important for children to eat freshly prepared, high quality, healthy meals and snacks.
After much research, we decided that using the renowned Zebedees Lunch Box to prepare our meals would be the best way of ensuring consistent quality and nutritional balance. The menus are drawn up by a qualified dietician and our meals are prepared daily from fresh ingredients. We cater for all dietary requirements.
Menus are changed weekly and are always on display for parents to view. For more information, please have a look at Zebedees’ website (http://www.zebedees.co.uk/index.htm)
Children attending morning sessions receive breakfast, a healthy mid-morning snack and lunch. In the afternoon session they receive high tea and a healthy snack. Fruit, dried fruit and breadsticks are available all day.
We believe meal times are really important as they allow children to develop their social skills. All our children sit at the table for meals, with the staff sitting with them to encourage conversation and provide help where needed.
