Diet & Nutrition

Diet & Nutrition​

Mealtimes at the Rocking Horse Nursery are a social time for the children to develop healthy habits with their friends.

 

All of our nutritionally-balanced meals are freshly cooked on-site every day by the talented team of chefs based at the Racecourse.

Wherever possible we source our produce locally with all special dietary requirements accommodated.

We use mealtimes as an opportunity to talk about healthy eating and encourage positive social skills and eating habits.

We supply all the formula feeds up to when the child is a year old and work with parents when they start being weaned, always catering to any special diets or requirements.
