Meals and Snacks

All meals and snacks are freshly prepared daily in our fully equipped kitchen by a qualified cook. We provide a varied menu with emphasis on wholesome and nutritionally balanced meals.

For babies who have not yet progressed to eating solid food we ask that bottles are provided, and when appropriate, freshly prepared vegetables and fruit are utilized to provide an appropriate weaning diet in accordance with parents wishes.
