Why choose Zebedees as your nursery food supplier?
We love what we do and we believe nutrition is at the heart of every child's development. After all, children can get up to 90% of their daily food intake from nursery food, which is why our nursery meal delivery service guarantees high-quality, healthy, and delicious food made from the freshest ingredients.
Here’s what sets our nursery catering service apart:
Locally Sourced Ingredients. Working with trusted local suppliers, we favour British-grown products and ingredients.
Nutritionist-approved Nursery Meals. With years of experience working with children and local authorities as a nutritional consultant, Charlotte Stirling-Reed collaborates with our chefs to create nutritious and balanced meals that are tailored to young children.
Tailored Menus for Every Child’s Need. We offer meal plans designed to meet every child's dietary requirements, food intolerances, and allergies. We are able to provide meals that do not contain any of the 14 main allergens, including gluten-free options, and ensure that they match or resemble the main menu wherever possible. It is our aim that no child feels ‘different’ or left out at meal times.
Never the same meal twice in 21 days. No more picky eaters! We rotate our menus every three weeks to ensure variety. Our menus are readily available for parents and nurseries to review online.
Real-time Trackable Delivery. Know exactly when meals will arrive with our reliable nursery food delivery service with real-time tracking.
Ensure Parents' Peace of Mind. Reassure parents that their children are well-cared for and are provided with healthy, balanced meals tailored to any dietary need.
Safety is a Top Priority. Our delivery drivers are DBS-checked, for peace of mind for nurseries and parents.
Healthy eating habits start young.
With Zebedees as your nursery food supplier, you can be confident that children are fueled by the right food. Only with the proper nutrients can they achieve great things—and we’re here to support them every step of the way.

How Zebedees started: a legacy of quality nursery meals delivery
Professional chefs Philip Oates and Steve Parsons saw first-hand the problems local nursery schools were having with the provision of fresh, healthy food, using limited resources and kitchen facilities.
Over 25 years ago, they put their heads, know-how and spatulas together and came up with a reliable food delivery service that could meet both children and nurseries’ needs: Zebedees nursery catering company was founded.
