Join us at Carmena in celebrating 35 years of joyfully caring for little fingers and toes.

At our nursery, we take pride in providing more than just childcare; we offer a holistic approach to nurturing your child’s well-being, and that includes serving nutritious meals prepared by our talented in-house chef. But we don’t stop there – we’ve also embraced the wonders of growing our own vegetables! In this article, we invite you to explore the journey of farm-to-table goodness at our nursery, as we share the benefits of nutritious meals and the joy of cultivating our very own vegetable garden.

  1. A Healthy Foundation: We believe that nutrition plays a vital role in a child’s growth and development. Our dedicated chef crafts well-balanced meals that are rich in essential nutrients, supporting your child’s physical and cognitive development. From fresh fruits and vegetables to lean proteins and whole grains, we prioritize wholesome ingredients to fuel their bodies and minds.

  2. Culinary Delights from Scratch: Our chef prepares meals from scratch, using fresh and locally sourced ingredients whenever possible. We prioritize natural flavors and limit the use of additives and preservatives. Discover how our chef’s culinary expertise, combined with a passion for creating delicious and nutritious dishes, brings smiles to little faces during mealtime.

  3. Cultivating Our Own Vegetable Garden: We’ve taken the farm-to-table concept to heart by growing our very own vegetable garden on-site. Witnessing the journey from seed to harvest, children develop a deep connection with their food and gain a better understanding of where their meals come from. We’ll share the joy of gardening, the lessons of responsibility and patience, and the excitement of enjoying the fruits (or rather, vegetables) of their labor.

  4. Encouraging Healthy Eating Habits: Through our mealtime experiences and vegetable garden activities, we inspire children to develop healthy eating habits. We engage them in hands-on activities like planting, watering, and harvesting vegetables, sparking their curiosity and appreciation for fresh, wholesome foods. By involving them in the process, we empower them to make informed choices about what they eat and establish a foundation for lifelong well-being.

  5. Education Through Food: We seize every opportunity to educate children about the nutritional benefits of the foods they consume. Our knowledgeable staff discusses the importance of a balanced diet, explaining the role of different food groups in supporting their growth and keeping them energized. By creating a positive association with healthy eating, we help children develop a lifelong love for nourishing foods.

  6. Sustainability and Environmental Consciousness: Our vegetable garden aligns with our commitment to sustainability and environmental consciousness. By growing our own produce, we reduce our carbon footprint, minimize packaging waste, and promote a deeper connection with nature. We’ll delve into the eco-friendly practices we incorporate at our nursery and how they contribute to a healthier planet for future generations.

At our nursery, we go beyond providing care and education; we prioritize the well-being of your child in every aspect of their experience, including mealtimes. Through nutritious meals prepared by our skilled chef and the joy of growing our own vegetables, we foster healthy eating habits, connect children with the natural world, and ignite their passion for nourishing their bodies. Join us on this farm-to-table journey, where we savor the delicious flavors of wholesome foods and cultivate a love for nutrition that will last a lifetime.
