New Setting the Table Guidance 2024.  

“Childcare services providing food (including
snacks) and/or drinks, and are registered with
the Care Inspectorate, will be responsible for the
implementation of this guidance.”

“Regulated childcare providers should supply
appropriate healthy food and drinks for babies
and young children in their care. Children should
also have opportunities to try a variety of
different foods, and food should be seen as part
of the learning experience and be an integral
part of the caring environment.”

This has also been added to the bottom of the NHS Scotland Guidance, Scottish Government Guidance & Care Inspectorate Guidance Portal pages, as well as the Lunch/Snack times, Health & Wellbeing – National Guidance & Nurture – National Guidance Portal Pages.
