Nutrition & Activities

The food our children eat affects every aspect of their lives: their mood, behaviour, growth, even their ability to concentrate. Good nutrition is vital to a child's health from building strong bones and teeth to the healthy development of internal organs and general growth. All our meals are freshly prepared on site by the Bush Babies Catering Team. We are very proud to have been awarded ‘The Health Eating Award’ by Stoke on Trent’s NHS Health Promotions for nutrition.

Babies in our care will be fed with the milk parents provide. At weaning stage, we feed freshly pureed food in a high chair. Older children sit and eat together. They learn necessary skills for social eating, how to use cutlery, share food and are encouraged to try new things. As well as main meals, we provide snacks of fresh fruit and vegetable segments throughout the day.
