Nursery Services

There is no doubt that establishing good eating habits early in life is beneficial to later health.  There is a wealth of research which supports this and it’s not just about the food we feed our children. Role modelling, the eating environment, cooking activities and they way we shape their relationship with food is just as crucial.

Through the provision of healthy balanced foods nurseries, childminders, nannies and early years settings have the potential to improve a child’s growth, development and potential to learn

Catherine offers a range of services to nurseries and early years’ settings including;
