Being Healthy

Being Healthy at Busy Bees Nurseries

Our Nurseries have always recognised the importance of healthy eating, which is reflected in the nutritious, balanced meals they provide. We continue to use a child nutritionist who works closely with our trained Catering Managers when devising our nursery menus, which include fresh fruit, oily fish, meat, poultry, and vegetables every day which all contribute to being healthy.

We employ a dedicated catering team, who work in professionally equipped kitchens, to prepare a choice of meals which contain quality, fresh ingredients. Our nursery Chefs are required to complete an exclusively developed Early Years Nutrition course certified by City & Guilds.

Nursery Chefs often hold healthy eating discussions and carry out fun activities with the children, incorporating fruit and vegetables, fish, the ‘Eatwell Plate’ and the importance a balanced diet plays towards being healthy. Experts such as Child Nutritionists and outside Professional Chefs regularly visit our nurseries, introducing children to a variety of different tastes and textures of food.

We are continuously developing new and exciting campaigns to introduce and encourage healthy eating amongst children attending Busy Bees nurseries.

Our nurseries are committed to delivering quality, balanced meals and snacks to all the children who attend and will continue to set the standard for food excellence and promote being healthy to the childcare sector as a whole.
