Hi, I'm Libby...
|
I am a Norland-trained nanny and have always loved cooking with the children I looked after and even more so when I had my own children.
I am also trained as a Montessori practitioner and spent nine years running the baby room at a Montessori nursery. Cooking has always been a strong passion of mine so getting the chance to spread my love of cooking to both adults and children alike through The Happy Kitchen Food Company is a real dream come true. I also write recipes on the cookery page for Ambo, the parish magazine, so watch out for my latest tasty treats! |
Cooking classes
I lead a number of different cooking classes for people of all ages and can create a class to fit your specific requirements. Regardless of whether the class is for you or for your children there is always something to be learned.
Please just give me a call to find the times of the next class, book a slot or discuss a bespoke class.

Children's party food boxes
One of the hardest things about hosting a birthday party (aside from tidying up the chaos afterwards) is arranging food for a fifteen hungry and excited children. Particularly if you have to account for specific allergies and dietary requirements.
I can take all of that stress off your hands and deliver fully-customised party boxes and platters to your door so that you can focus on the important things, such as the birthday girl or boy. Call me to see if I can deliver to your area.

University survival courses
Got young ones heading off to university and a bit worried about what (or how) they are going to eat?
One of my University Survival courses will give them the skills, and the confidence, to reach for cheaper and healthier ingredients than the university staples of Baked Beans, Super Noodles and cheese.

Time management cooking course
Finding time to cook can feel like a bit of a challenge at times, particularly if you have kids, work full-time or if Tesco has one of those tempting £10 meal deals going...
Whether you miss your passion for cooking or are just simply too busy to cook regularly, I can create a bespoke cooking lesson specifically for you that is tailor-made to fit your needs.
I can also do vegan, allergy and dietary focused classes.

Me in the press... |

Recently, I had a chat with the lovely people at Essex Baby where, amongst other things we discussed some of my favourite home baking recipes. All of them are simple to learn and easy to master with a bit of concentration and warm pot of tea. I have also created a few weaning recipes for the lovely people at Doidy Cup.
