Every child that attends our nursery can look forward to healthy, tasty food each and every day.
Nourishment is one of our key pillars at nursery because we know a balanced diet is proven to improve concentration, learning, energy and much more.
That’s why at Nurseries by Gymfinity Kids we work with nursery caterers, the Yum Yum Food Company and No.1 children’s cookery author Annabel Karmel MBE to make smart food decisions for little tummies. Our deliciously designed menus ensure children are fuelled with the very best meals, keeping little ones full of energy all day.
Try some of our favourite meals at home, with Annabel Karmel’s easy-to-follow recipes.
We start our day at 7am with a choice of delicious wholegrain breakfast cereals topped off with milk and fresh fruit or toasted bread with cream cheese. Staff will encourage children to self-serve and make healthy choices. Later on each morning we pause for a light snack, this can be a fresh fruit salad, mini pancakes with berries or hummus with celery, carrots and cucumber sticks.
Lunchtime starts at 12 noon followed by a daytime snack at 2pm. In order to encourage independence, children can help prepare their snacks by cutting their own fruits or buttering their own crackers or rice-cakes, all supervised by their key worker.
Dinner begins at 4pm and a small evening snack is provided for all children, we encourage children to help by making parts of their snack which supports their development an understanding of ingredients as well as key life skills.
All dietary needs will be catered for, so please complete an allergy form and care plan with your nursery manager.
If you have any additional questions about our nurseries menu, please contact a member of our nursery team directly or read our frequently asked questions page.
The staff have been great and through her settling in sessions in September she has settled really well. I love seeing the photos they post on the parent app of what she has been up to in the day. She is always happy to go which is really reassuring.

My daughter shows me the gymnastics she has been learning when she comes home and I've also noticed that her speech and vocabulary have really improved since being there. All the staff are really welcoming and with the many questions I have asked are very knowledgeable.

My twin boys have absolutely LOVED settling in at the Nursery at Gymfinity Maidstone! The team have made the boys so welcome and they love telling me all about the gym work they have been doing and playing in the garden!

The staff have all been exceptional especially during lockdown when both my partner and myself still had to work, they kept the nursery open for her without question. Our daughter always feels happy and safe to be left at the nursery which makes it a little bit easier leaving her knowing that she is safe and content.

My son has been going to the nursery since he was 6 months old and from the first day, he felt like he was at home. Two months later he is getting better and better day by day. They are helping him with crawling, make his first steps and trying different types of food.

My son has started walking at only 10 months old due to the wonderful facilities available he has gained the confidence due to the soft gymnastic floors.

We started our little girl in August 2020 and she has loved every moment to date. The facilities at the venue are amazing, lots of interactive toys, stimulating activities and safe places to play, explore, learn and have fun. In addition to the nursery space, the children have full access to the fully equipped gym floor, with daily sessions facilitated by qualified gym

My daughter joined Nurseries by Gymfinity in September 20202, and we fell in love with everybody and everything. The team and the nursery are amazing. She developed a lot, surrounded with so much kindness, love and care. It'll be very difficult to say goodbye when reception time comes
