Balanced meals, snacks and drinks for children in their early years following
current government guidance on nutritional needs: children should be provided
with healthy meals and other healthy snacks and drinks as appropriate; use of
menu plans to ensure balanced meals; practitioners should obtain, record and
act on information from parents about a child's dietary needs and use this
information when planning meals; fresh drinking water must be available to
children at all times; awareness of the requirements of a balanced meal for a
child eg different nutrients and proportions of nutrients, proteins, fats,
carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, water, fibre, recommended daily amounts,
suitable sized portions; nutritional requirements of babies before, during and
after weaning on to solid foods
Follow carer’s instructions in respect of their child’s food allergies or intolerances
and other dietary requirements: practitioners must follow parental guidance on
food allergies and intolerances in order to avoid serious medical problems for
children; understanding that some food allergies can be potentially fatal;
awareness of the most common food allergies eg cow’s milk, nuts, dairy
products, strawberries, tomatoes; recognise the possible presence of most
common allergenic food items in other foods eg presence of nuts in puddings or
pastry; presence of tomatoes in cooked meat dishes
Dietary requirements of different cultures or religious groups: religious or
cultural aspects of food and dietary principles of religious or cultural groups eg
Halaal, Kosher, Hindu vegetarianism, ethical/moral reasons for being a
vegetarian or vegan; implications for the preparation and storage of food within
settings eg keeping some food groups or food items in separate areas Educating children and adults in effective food management: provide accurate
and appropriate information on portion control and food groups; encourage
healthy food choices; appropriate procedures for supporting underweight and
overweight children; food phobias; modelling healthy eating habits

hope this helped
