A Niagara caterer / Cooking for child care centres / Every weekday / Made fresh in our own kitchen

OUR STORY

It started at our centre

Little Ones Lunches began with a family coming together to feed the children at our own child care centre. We cooked fresh, nutritious meals and snacks right there in our centre.

Then, across Niagara

Before long, other local centres wanted the same lunches for their children. Soon after, we were cooking for centres across the Niagara Region.

Made by hand

Every lunch is made by hand, every step of the way. Our Chef and Prep Chef lead our kitchen in St. Catharines, where each meal is cooked, portioned and packed with care before it heads out the door.

Today

We’ve grown a lot since that first kitchen, but our reason hasn’t changed. Every lunch still leaves our kitchen the way it did on day one: made for children we care about.
