Fresh, tasty, healthy food
A love for fresh ingredients and healthy food
At KatieB Kids we are passionate about children enjoying good food for life – so much so that we have even published our own Cook Book!
Our family-style meal and snack times are sociable, relaxed, happy occasions which bring together children of all ages. Chatting and conversation is encouraged, and we help everyone develop good manners and understand how to make healthy choices.
Beyond this we sow the seeds of good food habits for life through regular practical cooking and growing activities and food-based learning.
Our in-house kitchen is a a special feature at KatieB and, just like in any home, is at the heart of things. This allows children to see food being prepared and cooking in action.
Our nursery cook Mrs Murphy is loved by all our children and staff, and is lovingly known as our nursery ‘nana’.
Our promise to parents
All our food is free from controversial additives, trans-fats and genetically modified ingredients and we only use suppliers that exceed UK welfare standards. At KatieB Kids we are committed to endorsing ethical and environmentally sustainable food, championing local food producers and making healthy eating easy.
What you need to know
We only use fresh, raw, ‘wholefood’ ingredients, with over 90% of our meals freshly cooked on site each day.
Our ingredients are always non-processed with no added salt.
Our menus are based on a 16-week program and combine seasonal produce with traditional dishes from around the world.
Babies move from formula or EBM to simple purees or blended home cooked food and finally to chunky food prepared from the main menu.
Fresh drinking water is available to all children throughout the day, and also at mealtimes
Robust systems are in place to manage the risk of any known food allergy and to meet the requirements of individual children.
