Healthy Eating
At Little Rascals Daycare, we are committed to providing children with healthy, balanced, and nutritious food and drink in line with the Statutory Framework for the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and the Early Years Foundation Stage Nutrition Guidance (DfE, 2025).
We recognise that early childhood is a critical period for developing positive attitudes to food and healthy eating habits that last a lifetime.
Our aim is to ensure that all meals, snacks, and drinks served or consumed within our setting promote children’s health, safety, and wellbeing, support their development, and respect their individual dietary needs and cultural backgrounds.

Dietary Needs
All of our menus accommodate medical, cultural, and religious dietary needs.
Parents should provide full information about allergies, intolerances, and dietary requirements before admission.
Individual care plans and allergy records are created for relevant children, including emergency procedures and all staff are briefed on all children’s requirements and photos are displayed discreetly in the kitchen/food area.
Allergen information is shared with parents and displayed on menus.
