At Monkey Puzzle Bedford we strongly believe that a healthy, balanced diet is essential for growth and development in under 5’s. This prompted us to consult with a paediatric nutritionist to formulate a menu that will help give your child the best start in life.
We always provide fresh, balanced meals to the children at each meal time with a choice of fresh fruit at snack times.
We have a fully qualified chef that prepares snacks, two course hot lunches and two course tea freshly on the premises daily. Our menus ensure our children are offered a variety of nutritional and healthy meals, this also includes the recommended guideline of eating 5 portions of fruit and veg in a day. We cater for dietary requirements and preferences.
