Survey: Does your nursery prepare food on site or get it brought in?

[CountessDracula]

that's all really

Prepared on site

prepares on-site, but nursery is small.

on site but worry occasionally about how much is bought pre-prepared from Sainsburys!

Prepared on site

on site by a grandma/daughter team.

But the nursery backs on to Tecos

Tescos

prepared on site - fab menu too, big part of reason we chose that particular nursery. Have read your other thread too CD, i would also be v upset, good luck

On site but their old nursery had it brought in by a company that did food for schools and it would be nutricious to their age range so ds would often have something different to dd

on site, all freshly cooked. Often smells of lunchtime cooking at 9.30am if I do a late drop off, so I guess they must re-heat the food to give it to the children at 12.30. Unless it is bubbling away in the cauldrons for 3 hours!!
Sorry to hear about your current dilema CD. Seems a shame to drive food from Guildford to London when they could prepare it on site.

It is brought in from the university next door. It is cooked fresh that morning though and brought over only just before lunch time. It seems to be pretty good and varied. They have a 3 week menu which is displayed in the nursery entrance. DD eats lots of it so it must be good!

Asquith Nursery - prepared on site

At the nursery DS has recently left, it was cooked on site. And good, too.

On-site.

On site - excellent quality too.

on site (prev nursery used to prepare at one buidling and transport to another, but both buildings 5 mins drive away from eachother along quiet country roads)

Organix and the soil association are running Nursery food awards, If your child's nursery is providing good food get them to enter, you just need to go to:www.organix.com/Content/Nursery-Food-Awards

On site. The food was a really important thing for me. DS eats so well at home, I didn't want everything going awry at nursery! V good selection, lots of fruit, veg etc...

on-site (local produce as much as possible and organic fruit, veg and meat)

On site at ds's nursery. The cook used to be a very jolly woman, but she left to go back to Africa and was replaced by a handsome male cook who is much quieter but apparently a better cook as all the children eat everything put in front of them. DS often has seconds too.

We were told it was done on-site when we were shown around, but further questioning at a later date when trying to find out if various items contained gluten or not was met with a blank look and a 'we'd have to read what the packet said' - so no, it's reheated on site, from the sounds of things

Umm I know it doesn't exist yet - but surely you have seen my agonising about the size of the kitchen/equipment I need etc.

Mind you I will cook/chill a serving dish each day to take home to childminding for the next meal

All cooked on site. All organic as well.
