Moving with Nutrition

At Move Early Learning, we believe good food fuels happy, healthy children. Our onsite chef prepares fresh, seasonal meals daily, ensuring every dish is nutritious, delicious, and balanced.

 

We embrace a garden-to-plate approach through the Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden Program, where children plant, harvest, and prepare food, learning about sustainability and where their meals come from.

 

By making healthy eating fun and interactive, we empower children to develop lifelong positive food habits.

Learn about our Kitchen Garden Program

As part of our commitment to inspiring healthy habits, Move is proud to be part of the Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden Program. Children help plant, grow, harvest and prepare fresh produce from our own garden - learning where food comes from, how it fuels their bodies, and building life skills along the way.
