NURTURING YOUNG MINDS IN THE HEART OF HORSHAM FOR OVER 16 YEARS
Nutrition
GIGGLES HAS A FIVE STAR FOOD RATING
At Giggles Nursery, we promote a healthy lifestyle through our carefully selected nutritional menus. Our key approach is to offer a variety of healthy food options that meets the dietary needs of children at different ages and stages of their development. This includes providing a balance of fruits and vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins and low-fat dairy products supplied by Care Catering.
In addition to providing nutritious food options, we also incorporate food education into our curriculum. This includes teaching children about the importance of healthy eating and the benefits of different foods. Our staff eat with the children, providing role models for eating habits and using cutlery and also talk to the children about what they are eating and where the different foods come from.
