Healthy eating means healthy minds

We offer an inclusive fee structure in Pinocchio's Nursery, in fact we were the first in Midlothian to start this in January 1998.  We understand that parents are busy and it makes it so much easier to know that your payment covers essentials and you don't need to worry about preparing meals and bringing nappies in.

Our fees include all meals, formula milk, organic milk and baby care items.

Healthy home cooked meals are prepared by our expert in-house chefs & kitchen assistants, all trained by our head chef.  All meals at Pinocchio's are created with healthy local produce. All chefs are trained not to order food with E numbers, we buy foods with natural colours and natural flavourings. We never add salt when cooking. Vegetarian options are available, as well as alternatives, should your child have any special dietary requirements.

We are very proud of our meals in Pinocchio’s Nursery and our children and parents love it so much we even have our own Recipe book!

We use the 'Setting the Table Guidelines' please click here to see these.  There are also some lovely recipes provided by Health Scotland on the same link.
