Nutrition
Support
for early childhood
Children deserve to be aware of the impact that food has on their developing bodies, plus how food and movement in their childhood impacts their adult health outcomes.
Together, we can shape the health of a whole new generation
Early Years Menu. Training. Consultancy.
The best way to help to shape the health of the next generation is via education. Education enables empowerment. Food doesn't just fill us up, it shapes our every movement, action and emotion.
​
Understanding this (at a basic level) is the key to being as in control as you can be of your own health journey!
Menu Services
I support early years settings with menu development. Your menu is one of the most important documents in your setting. Parents can base their nursery choice on the menu alone and a strong nutritional message can give Nurseries/Childminders a competitive advantage. The most important factor about your menu is that the foods consumed in early childhood lay down biological foundations such as brain development and shape future habits. Let's ensure your menu is fully supporting the health of the next generation.
Tiny Tums Learning Management System
Flexible early years nutrition training designed to turn learning into everyday practice.
Having a brilliant menu is only one part of the picture.
For nutrition to truly support child development, the whole team needs to understand the why behind it.
The Tiny Tums Learning Management System is designed for the early years sector, helping leaders, practitioners, chefs, childminders and nannies build confidence in food, nutrition, safer eating and child development.
With flexible online learning pathways, reflection tools and implementation support, Tiny Tums LMS helps settings move beyond information alone and into meaningful practice.
Because a nursery meal is never just a nursery meal.
Policy Writing
Safeguarding children is of course a key factor in the early years sector but I ensure that your food and nutrition policies not only protect children but you and your staff too. Having robust policies ensures that you are meeting the (soon to be enhanced) requirements of the EYFS and offers peace of mind for parents, staff and children.​
