Elizabeth Smith-Keitley and her husband Paul Keitley-Fletcher set up Chefs2go after buying the Telford setting three years ago.
The couple use ingredients local & high quality ingredients. The nutritious meals are designed specifically for the 0-5 age group. They are created by taking recipes from around the world and modifying them to suit the age group, taking into account the fat, salt, sugar, protein and vitamin content.
Mr Keitley-Fletcher said, 'Before we set up Chefs2go, our food was supplied by a commercial company. It was mainly processed and not very healthy. However, when my wife bought the setting in Telford, it had a much bigger kitchen and she decided she wanted to give the children better quality food.
'We started off by sourcing food from local markets and by going to Tesco three times a week. Now, as we supply food to ten nurseries in all, we buy some of the ingredients from a commercial company, and we also buy some good quality produce locally.
The couple specializes in taking one meal and adjusting it about five or six ways to suit different children’s needs, such as a lactose intolerance or gluten-free. Their system has been successful, and they’re hoping other nurseries catch onto creating healthy toddlers.
