Our Day

At Lesley's all food and drink are provided with the exception of formula milk and any special dietary food (eg. gluten free bread.) I will endeavour to work with parents to meet dietary requirements, just tell me what your child needs. Fussy eaters are always encouraged to have at least have a try at different foods.
Sample Menu
Snacks
Choice of fruit and /or toast, crumpets, fruit bread with a drink. Drinks are limited to milk or water.
Lunch
Sandwiches (cheese, turkey/chicken, tuna, jam), carrot sticks, tomatoes, peppers, cucumber, cheese. Beans or cheese on toast. Jacket potatoes/ homemade soup with crusty bread. Simple pasta meals are always popular too. For dessert, I usually offer Fruit or yoghurt.
Drinks
There will be fresh drinking water available at all times. I will also offer milk.
Special occasions
We celebrate special days throughout the year such as Pancake Day with pancakes; and of course all of the children’s own birthdays' with a Birthday Cake and a party on the actual day, or the nearest week-day to it.
