Report
What a lovely and friendly bunch of people. My son eats better at nursery than he does at home, and so I wanted to see if he ate a meal from nursery whilst at home, if it would make a difference. Cupcakes Early Years Catering were only too happy to help us out and supplied an extra portion of a meal he has at nursery. It was a positive move for us and now we have an extra food he'll eat at home. So a huge thank you to this lovely team of people who went the extra mile to help me and my son. Huge thank you!
