Butterflies Childminding Services
A Typical Week's Menu

 

 
Meal and snack times at Butterflies are a time of social interaction and children are encouraged to sit together and observe good table manners.
 
We actively promote healthy eating within our setting and provide the children in our care with a varied menu.  Children are never forced to eat anything they don't want to, however they are encouraged to try a little bit of everything and eat as much as they can.  In our experience children are much more willing to try new things outside of their own home!
 
Our menu varies week to week and is always available for parents to see. 
 
CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL DIETARY NEEDS AND ALLERGIES CAN BE CATERED FOR ON REQUEST.
