Nutrition

Banana Moon provides a well balanced nutritious menu. Meals are prepared on a daily basis and we promise parents that the children are offered their five portions of fruit and vegetables everyday.

We are very proud to have received gold hygiene awards from Warwick County Council at both our nurseries for high quality food and good hygiene and safety procedures. Our site in Upper Grove Street has a designated dining room where all different ages can mix.

Snacks vary on a daily basis. These consist of fresh fruit, fresh vegetable sticks and biscuits which is accompanied either by a glass of milk or water. Lunch and dinner is good wholesome, healthy, nutritious food.

Please note we do not serve any convenience foods nor do we serve any squash to drink.

Solid food is prepared to suit the individual needs of each child. The younger babies have a separate menu. Weaning starts with freshly prepared vegetable and fruit purees with the gradual introduction to meat, fish and other textures. By the time the babies are a year old, we aim for them to be eating the same food as the rest of the nursery.

Where ever possible, individual needs such as religion, special dietary requirements or food allergies will be catered for.
