Healthy & Tasty
Freshly prepared homemade meals that children really enjoy.
At Mathern, food is a big part of the care we provide every day. Meals are cooked everyday on the premises by our cook Teresa using fresh ingredients and the weekly menus are revised regularly to reflect the seasons and produce on offer.
Snacks are simple, balanced and child-friendly including breadsticks, fruit, vegetable sticks, rice cakes and scotch pancakes.
At our nursery, we believe it is essential that children receive the right nutrition through a well-balanced diet. Healthy eating plays a vital role in supporting their growth, development, and overall wellbeing. This is especially important as children spend time outdoors in our field throughout all seasons. Nutritious food helps to keep them energised, supports their immune systems, and provides warmth during colder weather, enabling them to fully enjoy and benefit from outdoor play.
Young children need food that is nourishing, familiar and enjoyable. Our approach is simple: freshly prepared meals, sensible variety, and mealtimes that feel calm, social and well supported. Food should help children feel settled, confident and ready for the rest of the day.
We also cater for special dietary needs and food intolerances, and we are a nut-free nursery.
