Founded in London, 2021
Real food for little ones, from two parents who needed it
V&Me was founded in 2021 by Lenko and Mulu, a Pimlico husband-and-wife team, with one mission: give children fresh food instead of ultra-processed food.
How V&Me started
Weaning our son, we couldn't find food we trusted
Being new parents is amazing, but when it came to weaning our son V, frustration set in. Supermarket options were a no-go: pouches lacked freshness and frozen meals felt like settling.
We wanted V to love delicious, nutritious food made with real ingredients. But between classes, play dates and (lack of!) nap time, there was no time or energy left to research, plan and cook it all from scratch.

The idea
Your baby deserves the best
That's when the idea sparked: fresh, chef-crafted meals for little ones, delivered straight to the door. We couldn't do it alone, so we brought together a team who shared the mission.
- Paediatric experts make sure every dish, and every week of meals, meets the highest nutritional standards.
- Fine-dining chefs, led by Head Chef Kwesi, cook everything from scratch with the freshest, local, responsibly sourced ingredients.
V&Me today
Zero compromises, every single day
What began at our kitchen table now feeds thousands of children across London every week, from babies at home to nurseries and schools.
Planned
By a paediatric dietitian
Every menu is planned by our paediatric dietitian Jo Lenz and reviewed with Professor Alastair Sutcliffe of UCL and Great Ormond Street Hospital.
Cooked
By restaurant-trained chefs
Head Chef Kwesi's team cooks each morning in Battersea, with ingredients from the same suppliers as London's top restaurants.
Delivered
