Menu
We are committed to Healthy Eating and all our dishes offered at Jacquie’s Place rank as ‘healthy eating choices’. We take this development process to be as important as any other daily learning activity.
Our daily diets from when we are young sets the patterns and tones for our eating habits in later life. It is important that we consider the foods we feed our young children very carefully, for example avoiding giving them food that contains added sugar or salt, ensuring that we provide them with a balanced diet especially once we start reducing their milk feeds and offering them a wide range of foods to taste.
It is considered a good practice to give your child finger foods such as batons of cooked carrot, broccoli or cauliflower to hold and eat alongside their mainstay foods, so they can start to feed themselves. Children should be given every opportunity to feed themselves to promote physical development, independence and self-confidence.
Every effort will be made to ensure that the dietary needs of all our children are met and those children with allergies and preferences are given a meal as similar as possible to the menu. All food is made every day by staff who hold food hygiene certificate.
