Meal times
Our cook takes great care to ensure that all the meals provided are nutritious and meet a well-balanced diet. All our meals are prepared and cooked on the premises.
Lunch is served in two sittings; 11.45am (morning session children) and 12.15pm (full-day session children). Our menu is varied and consists of a hot lunch, followed by a hot/cold desert.
A light tea is served in two sittings at 4.00pm and 4.20pm.
Fresh fruit is served with milk or water at 10.30am. Milk or water is served again along with a savoury snack such as crackers, bread sticks or rice cakes at 3.15pm. Fresh drinking water is available all day.
The children sit at tables with a member of staff, where they are helped and guided to learn table skills to encourage independence.
We continue to hold a five-star rating from Rushcliffe Borough Council Environmental Health officers for our food hygiene and safety standards.
Ofsted report
“ Staff provide opportunities for children to have daily exercise in the nursery's extensive gardens and fields. Children are physically active.
Children learn key skills in preparation of their move on to school.
They listen well and follow instructions. Children show care for living things. They excitedly call out the name of an alpaca when they see it in the field. Younger children collect grass and put this in the alpaca's feeding trough."

FAQs
What are your opening times?
8.00am–6.00pm.
What age can my child start?
Children can attend Millfield from birth to age 5.
How does Millfield differ from other nurseries?
Our family-based environment, relaxed atmosphere and beautiful rural setting make Millfield unique.
How are new children/parents helped to settle in?
We offer free ‘settling in’ visits before your child starts with us. To begin with, you can spend time in the nursery with your child. We then encourage you to leave your child for short periods of time, until they are familiar with the nursery and its routines.
Can I come and view the nursery?
Absolutely! We would highly recommend you pay us a visit to see Millfield ‘in action’ for yourself.
