Hot meals prepared daily in our Battersea kitchen by professional chefs and paediatric dietitian, delivered to your setting ,ready to serve, every day
You've considered hot meals before but weren't sure about the transition — the parent communication, whether children will eat it, how much work it adds to your team. More settings make this move than you'd expect, and most tell us it was easier than they anticipated.
If your food quality isn't matching what you want to offer children, or parents are starting to ask questions - you're right to look elsewhere. The gap between standard nursery catering and what V&Me cooks is significant enough that settings who switch tend to hear about it quickly, from the teachers and parents as well as children.
The fear is disruption. The reality is different.
Parents: relieved, not resistant. We write the letters, answer the questions, handle the admin.
Children: there's a settling period. By end of term, settings tell us they see improvement even with the fussiest eaters.
Your team: no kitchen required. We handle allergens, temperatures, and EHO records.
Straight from oven, not hot held - no more mush and brown broccoli
Food made from scratch - real fish and meat, not fish fingers and sausage rolls
Direct line to us - we call you for feedback, every term, and make the changes in the next season. No one else does that.
Where it all starts. A different meal every day, at the right texture for where your baby is — so they grow up eating everything.
Keep the variety going through the years that set their habits — with portions that grow with them too.
Proper food the whole table actually wants. No separate children's menu, no negotiating at 6pm.
