Food at Be. Independent Day Nurseries

At Be. Independent Day Nurseries, we recognise the vital role that nutrition plays in the development of young children. We provide hot lunch every day, and we complement these with a selection of wholesome, organic snacks to fuel their active learning throughout the day.


Healthy Snacking


We are committed to providing nutritious snack options that keep energy levels high and minds alert. Our snacks are carefully selected to promote healthy eating habits and are free from artificial colours, flavours, and preservatives. We also have a community partnership with local producers who deliver healthy snacks each week.


Hydration and Drinks


Staying hydrated is key to maintaining the concentration and energy levels of our little learners. Throughout the day, we offer milk, which is an excellent source of calcium for growing bones and water. Children have access to fresh water at all times and are encouraged to drink regularly to stay hydrated.


Meal Times: A Communal Experience


Meal times are an important part of our daily routine, providing an opportunity for social interaction and the development of good eating habits. We encourage children to sit together and enjoy the hot meals we provide covering a wide and varied menu, fostering a sense of community and shared experience.

Allergies and Dietary Restrictions


Understanding that some children have special dietary needs, we take great care to ensure a safe eating environment. Parents are asked to inform us of any allergies or dietary restrictions their child may have. We actively manage and monitor these requirements to prevent cross-contamination and ensure that every child can snack safely and happily.


Educating on Nutrition


In addition to providing healthy snacks, we also see this as an opportunity to educate our children about the benefits of healthy eating. Through discussions and themed activities around food, we aim to instil a lifelong appreciation for nutritious food choices.

Our Commitment to Sustainability

Our commitment to organic snacks is just one aspect of our broader commitment to sustainability. We aim to source our food responsibly, reducing the environmental impact and supporting the well-being of our planet, just as we support the well-being of our children.


At Be. we believe that healthy bodies support active minds. By providing nutritious snacks and drinks, we're ensuring that our children have the best possible foundation for a day full of learning and growth.
