We are a healthy under fives setting.
Healthy Under 5s aims to encourage and support all early years childcare providers to become health promoting environments and encourage healthy lifestyles from an early age.
Early years providers are in a unique position to highlight the importance of health and wellbeing to children, parents, carers and even grandparents. Healthy Under 5s is designed to celebrate topics that providers may already be championing and explore new areas that could be included.
The Healthy Under 5s give us useful tips and advice in the following areas:
Health promotion topics:
- Healthy eating
- Dental health
- Physical activity
- Emotional health and wellbeing
- Accident prevention
