Your child will develop healthy eating habits that will set them up for making smart eating decisions for the rest of their lives.
In our experience nurturing a child’s development begins with a strong focus on their physical wellbeing, and at the heart of this for us is a commitment to healthy eating.
Supporting Growing Bodies and Minds
Delicious and Healthy Seasonal Menus
Your child’s delicious and healthy meals are prepared by qualified and experienced Chefs. Our kitchens are well resourced to ensure daily meals are delivered using nutritious locally-sourced ingredients with a focus on both quality and taste.
Inspiring Your Child’s Appreciation of Food
Children learn more about food when they are involved in the growth and preparation of ingredients. Your child will have hands-on involvement in seasonal planting, caring for and harvesting plants used as ingredients in our daily menus.
Learning the Importance of Meal Times
Mealtimes are fundamental to the development of your child’s social and life skills. Children are encouraged to engage in conversation with their peers and use ‘real’ crockery and cutlery, as part of their growth and learning.

We’re very excited to have chef extraordinaire, Miguel Maestre as our Consultant Chef to the Paisley Park team.

“I’m very excited to be working with the Paisley Park team to empower pre-school children, their parents and carers with the inspiration, information and professional learning to make positive food choices from an early age, whilst having fun along the way.”
– Miguel Maestre

Today at Paisley Park Devonport TAS, we hosted our Spring Menu Tasting. Centre Chef Sue created some delicious treats for our families to sample including Orange and Poppy Seed Hotcakes, warm oatmeal with ginger and spiced pears and house made Focaccia bread with sundried tomato and Italian herbs. Our food philosophy extends beyond simply providing nutritious meals for our children. We are committed to supporting our local growers, butchers, grocers and bakers with the view that this partnership supports our fresh and holistic approach to food. Thank you to our wonderful local suppliers.

Spending time in the garden offers many important learning experiences and gives children a greater understanding the world around them. This week the children at Paisley Park Melton VIC, gathered around our vegetable garden beds to harvest fresh mint. We were so happy to hand them to our Chef Rekha who used our fresh herbs in a delicious natural mint yoghurt sauce to be served with our lunch. The children were amazed by the aroma and were very excited when showing Rekha what they had grown.
