My Reviews
Natalie Bishop
CEO, Little Years Nurseries.
We absolutely loved working with Tiny Tums. Louise’s expertise in early years nutrition, and her understanding of the relationship between food, brain development, bone health and overall wellbeing, is truly incredible. What really sets Louise apart is her depth of knowledge and genuine passion for helping children thrive through nutrition. She has created thoughtful menus, menu guidance and marketing materials that have helped us support both parents and teachers to better understand the importance of nutrition in the early years. ​She has also delivered valuable training for our team around their own nutrition and wellbeing, which has been so beneficial. It has been wonderful to work with someone whose values align so closely with our own belief that healthy, happy children are built from strong foundations.
Robert Lee
Health and Safety Manager for Childbase.
Louise has brought to my attention how big a part Childbase Partnership can play in lifetime eating behaviours and our focus on our ‘food experience’ has changed from ensuring our menus are nutritionally balanced to ensuring our food offers developmental benefits to our children, both physically and mentally. Louise has given a greater focus on the educational aspect of menu development and has developed training materials delivering this messaging to our colleagues, and their families.
Charlotte Armitage
National Early Years Lead - Connect 2 Care
Working with Louise Mercieca on the Early Years Chef Apprenticeship has been a great experience. Her expertise in early childhood nutrition and commitment to supporting the early years sector have been instrumental in shaping content for our learners. Louise’s collaborative approach, creativity, and passion make her a brilliant partner to work with.
Sam Handley
Head Chef Family First Day Nurseries
Louise has helped us with both our summer and Autumn menu preparation, Louise has helped to give underpinning guidance to ensure that staff fully informed. She's given us many fantastic ideas and all these ideas have factual evidence to prove and answer many people's "WHY" questions. She's also gone above and beyond in a short time scale, we can't wait for the next menu launch, Louise!
Emma Cook
Nursery Manager
We have worked with Louise on a menu project, to make improvements to our exclusion diet options. Louise has worked with our chef to create exclusion diet meals that are very similar to the regular menu. This not only saves us money from buying expensive meals from outside caterers, but, also gives the chef greater control over his menu. Louise is passionate about healthy food and healthy brains. She is very knowledgeable and great fun to work with.
Dogsthorpe Infant School
Louise has helped us notice that we needed more 'brain nutrients' in our school meals and with her help we now have a new supplier and a new menu which the children love and are embracing new foods!
