Food Regulations

We have recently undertaken a Nursery audit and self-assessment to ensure that we are compliant with the new Food Regulations in the Early Years Foundation Stage relating to Food Allergen management.     We are a nut free nursery at all times and ensure that any other food allergies that individual children/staff have are specifically identified and a plan is put in place to ensure that these foods are not available in the setting.    We explain why we cannot have particular foods in an age/stage appropriate way to the children.  All of our staff are paediatric first aid trained including having training on recognising the signs of Anaphylaxis and how to respond and we work hard to ensure that their parents/carers are fully aware of our procedures etc to ensure the safety of our children & staff at all times.
