Nutrition

(Regarding Cooking and Learning About Food Training)

Thank you so much! This training was really helpful and interesting. Definitely, I am going to prepare some cooking activities with children as we have been already practicing them. But now we have extended our knowledge and gained some new ideas for cooking activities. Thank you.

‘I first heard about the Early Start Group when I attended The Nursery World Conference in London in 2018. I was so impressed by the live show they did that I really wanted to get more information and get my team back in Northern Ireland all trained to be able to promote the best nutrition for children during snack time within my setting.  Since the conference 11 of my staff have completed the online Nutrition training for toddlers, which will allow us to share the information with parents through snack demonstrations at our stay and play sessions, alongside key message and information to take home.

I found the staff so helpful when I had queries, which made the process of getting so many of my team trained smoother.  Thank you Edwina and the rest of the Early Start Team’.

'I found the Food and Nutrition for Infants training really excellent. The graphics are very clear and helpful, and it is amazing to have all the references listed at the end of the training. It was refreshing not to have to sift through information wondering which of it might be evidence-based or not. The course has provided me with everything I need to support new parents in weaning infants.'

'It is an absolute pleasure to work with the Early Start Team, they are a really friendly, professional and approachable group. The group provide invaluable resources, courses and their social media content is always helpful and engaging.'
