OUR FACILITY/GREEN PHILOSOPHY:

A lot of thought and planning was put into the physical facility of Nibbles. We are frequently told we have the best bathrooms – we have child-height sinks, child-sized potties (lots of potty-training goes on at Nibbles), large changing tables in both the men and women’s bathrooms. We have a combination of booths, tables, and counter seats next to the play areas because we know everyone has their preference. There are ample high chairs, boosters and baby seats. We keep bibs, diapers, extra clothing, baby food, - just about everything you can think of – on hand, just in case.

We also tried to build Nibbles to be as green as possible by using the following:

• Products that emit low or zero levels of VOC.
• Products that were sustainable and manufactured using green business practices.
• Products that could replace disposable products such as plates and party decorations.
• Green cleaning products, especially on surfaces that children will be in contact with.

For example:

• • Our floors and trim are made of bamboo. Bamboo is naturally hypo-allergenic, anti-microbial and anti-fungal.
  • Our bathroom walls are covered with clay paint made from naturally occurring earth borne clays.
  • Our walls throughout the facility are covered with low odor antimicrobial paint, emitting zero VOC.
  • Our counters are VCO free and made of recycled glass and concrete.
  • Our cabinets are made of reclaimed wood from collapsed barns and 100 year old renovated houses.
  • Our walls are partially covered with cork which is a sustainable product.
  • We try to use green practices on a daily basis. We limit our use of disposable products, we recyle cans, plastics and paper, and we save and reuse as much as possible.
