INSIDE OUR KITCHEN

Real food, real chefs, really fresh

Every meal is cooked from scratch in our Battersea kitchen and delivered the same day. Here's how we do it:
Only the best ingredients

We go through a strict selection process before choosing any supplier so we can be sure we're giving your family the best quality food.

Every vegetable is washed and prepped thoroughly, and nothing is ever frozen.

We use Nature's Choice & Natoora for seasonal, local produce, also chosen by many of London's michelin starred restaurants.

Blackwell & Co for fresh, free-range meat.

Daily Fish Supplies for sustainably sourced seafood.

WHY V&ME

Real food. Not just baby food.

See how a meal cooked this morning compares to a cube from a freezer or a purée from a pouch →
Real meals, made today.
The kind of meal you'd cook yourself — if you had the time, a chef's training, and started cooking at 4am.

Cooked each morning. On their plate by 8am.
‍
From our Battersea kitchen to your door the same day. No freezer, no shelf life, no sitting in a warehouse.

A new flavour every meal.
Herbs, spices, grains, fish, meat, world flavours - built to broaden what they'll eat while their palate is still open.

You can see the ingredients.
‍
Broccoli fingers, recognisable chicken, real sauce. It looks like homemade food because it is.

Frozen cubes

Fine as a backup
Useful in the freezer for travel days, late returns, or when nothing else is to hand.

Wetter, softer, more uniform slows texture progession
Frozen meals favour saucy, blended dishes. Most things lose their bite, their texture and separate components end up mixed together once defrosted.

Less variety to try, less to learn
‍
Frozen ranges tend to stay in safe, familiar meal territory. Fewer chances to use the months when your baby is most willing to try new dishes and flavours.

Pouches

Emergency back up
‍
Fine for occasional days out when convenience is the priority.

One smooth blend
Cold pressing or not, pouches deliver a single smooth purée. But the window between 6 months and 18 months is when babies learn to handle lumps, bite-sized pieces and finger food.

Doesn't look like family food
‍
Sucking food from a pouch teaches a different relationship with eating than what they'll see on your plate.

HOW IT WORKS

Fresh meals, delivered daily

V&Me works a little differently.

1. Delivered on the days you choose

Choose the days you’d like meals and we’ll deliver fresh on each of those days.

For example, if you choose Monday, Wednesday and Friday, you’ll receive a fresh delivery on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

2. Pre-8am & cool box options

At checkout, you can add pre-8am delivery for £1 per delivery — ideal before work, nursery drop-off or the school run.

You can also add a V&Me cool box for ÂŁ1 per delivery for extra peace of mind.

3. Our own DBS-checked riders

Your meals are delivered by our own private fleet, not a third-party courier network.

Our riders deliver to families every day and can follow special instructions like “please don’t ring the doorbell” or “leave with concierge”.
