Kitchen
Our Menu
At SmileOn, we understand that children who eat nutritional and delicious food are happier and better prepared for their comprehensive schedule at nursery. To ensure this occurs, we prepare fresh meals for the children daily, right here in our kitchen. This allows us to accommodate a variety of dietary requirements with care and precision. It also allows a varied and culturally diverse array of meals to be prepared every week, exposing children to many different types of cuisine. Our Children’s Kitchen is designed to support parents by providing children with an exceptional diet at the setting, as they have three main meals and two snacks daily. These consist of breakfast, a morning snack, lunch, an afternoon snack and tea, all equally yummy and healthy.
We work with three of the best producers of milk, meat, fish, fruit and vegetables:
Daily Menu
Our daily menu includes four nutritious meals:
Our menus cater to two distinct age groups: children up to two years old and those above two. Recognising these unique needs at different developmental stages, our meals are thoughtfully tailored to support the learning, play, and development of each child. We source our ingredients from certified eco and bio friendly suppliers, which are linked below. By following these metrics, we can ensure the highest quality of food for your child.
