I have raised a serious safeguarding concern with the nursery in June 2025 which was very poorly managed and no explination has been given as to how this has happened. As far as I am aware, nobody has been held accountable for what happened to my son.

Our child has been attending Pumpkin Patch for around 3 months. Pumpkin Patch accommodated him with short notice after he had a bad experience of another nursery. He was so upset at nursery previously, we thought he'd never settle but the staff at PP are magic. Pumpkin Patch are incredibly nurturing
and child-centred, the staff are genuinely fond of the children and comfort them whenever they need it. Our son learnt very quickly that he could go to any member of staff for reassurance. The activities they come up with on a daily basis are fun, engaging and support the children's development. I don't think they get a chance to miss home as they ae always busy getting messy, splashing about or being creative. The outside areas are safe and varied and even the smallest babies get lots of opportunities to be in the garden. Our son is now transitioning to toddlers and it's clear that the staff there are just as great as in babies. We feel incredibly lucky to have gotten a place for him.

My daughter has been attending Pumpkin Patch since September 2023. It is by far the most amazing nursery out there. The staff are wonderful with the children and made her feel so at home and comfortable with attending nursery. They keep the parents up to date via the app and at pick ups! The space inside
is lovely and light and full of different activities to do throughout the day. As well as having a great outside space where my daughter can easily spend all day. The nursery has an in house chef who cooks all meals fresh. The children have a great variety of food, breakfast/lunch/tea. All healthy options and I know my little one will be eating well there!
In all, I would highly recommend Pumpkin Patch to any family!

The team at Pumpkin Patch has been amazing-from helping us as anxious parents during the settling-in period to supporting our daughter's growth and everything in between! She now thrives at nursery and looks forward to going in, especially when we mention some of her favorite staff members. Communication
between parents and staff is strong, and the management team is approachable and supportive. We also love that the food is freshly prepared by their in-house chef-it's reassuring to know our child is enjoying healthy meals even when she's not at home.

Our little boy attends pumpkin patch and our eldest left last year. They have always been so prompt in their handling of issues and correspondence. They are also more then happy to help with anything you raise and the staff are very welcoming and positive. I truly believe they have your child's best
interests at heart and my boy always comes out of nursery with a big smile on his face and says his day was great. Would recommend pumpkin patch to anyone with little ones.

My daughter has attended Pumpkin Patch - Cresent Road nursery for the past 2 years and my wife and I couldn't be happier with the nursery. The staff are brilliant, the facilities are brilliant and the food is brilliant. Our daughter loves going to nursery and all the thoughtful activities and care the
staff give has meant her development as been excellent. The staff are also fantastic at communicating and all seem very happy to be working there (which shows through the care they give to the children). My wife and I couldn't recommend them more highly. Thank you Pumpkin Patch!

We have seen our little girl flourish with confidence since going to Pumpkin Patch Nursery. She has recently turned 2 and she is so happy when it is nursery day, to see her friends and teachers. When she comes home I ask what she did and she is able to pick out her most enjoyable parts (with a little
prompt from Daddy after checking updates on the app. That is ultimately what every parent wants from a nursery, a place where their children can enjoy, learn and develop. I have no hesitancy in recommending pumpkin patch to anyone in the area.

We love Pumpkin Patch and feel very proud to have our daughter attending there. They have been kind and thoughtful of our child's needs. Their communication is brilliant, sending us updates daily of their developments and handing over how they have been at the end of each day, with a smile. The education
is excellent too and their commitment to the children's development whilst making it fun is so wonderful to watch, she comes home surprising us with her new skills weekly. They have been wonderful at supporting our daughter's dietary requirements and making the meals inclusive to her as well as nutritious and tasty. The staff are always friendly and remember little details that make us as a family feel important. They are simply outstanding.
Reply from Leanne de Courcy, Nursery Manager at Pumpkin Patch Nursery Worthing (Crescent Road)Wow, thank you so much for all of your kind words! We have loved watching your little one learn and grow, especially seeing her confidence develop.

We think Pumpkin Patch is brilliant. The whole team has been so encouraging and supportive to our daughter since she started 14 months ago and she loves going there. As parents, we feel confident that our daughter is getting the best care and we are very happy with everything about the nursery, including
the activities the children get to do, the meals they have and the communication from the nursery. We are extremely glad we chose to send our daughter to Pumpkin Patch.

Our granddaughter started here aged 10 months when it first opened. From the start, she’s been very happy going each day. The staff are excellent - creative and caring. Her personal development and social skills grow weekly - she’s developed confidence and curiosity. I can’t praise or recommend this

Fabulous nursery! My daughter has been attending since February full time and she is always full of smiles when I drop her off and pick her up - she loves it. I love the app where you are sent updates/pictures of what they are up to. All the staff there are so caring and friendly and have really helped
with her development. When she started there she was 8 months old and had no routine with naps and was not really eating solids and within a couple of weeks had a good nap routine sorted and was eating all of her meals. They really worked wonders. The food there is brilliant, with an excellent variety and she loves it. Would highly recommend this nursery.

Pumpkin Patch Nursery Worthing is a wonderful place to start your child's education. It is a caring and thoughtfully managed nursery with a team of staff that are considerate and skilled in providing a safe and secure environment for children to learn, interact and play. Arts, crafts, reading, writing,
outdoor play, beach school, forest school, gardening and much more. Our daughter loves every day. And that is the best endorsement you can ask for.

We moved our son to Pumpkin Patch from another nursery. He has thrived since starting and loves going there! Our other son has also recently started and we couldn’t be happier. The staff are fantastic and very caring and accommodating of each individual child’s needs. The level of learning is far superior
than our experience of other settings, and the communication is second to none. We were apprehensive about the move but now we wish we’d done it sooner. Would highly recommend!

Pumpkin Patch Crescent Road is just excellent. The whole setting - all the staff, the communication to parents, the commitment to the children, the nutritious meals, even the driving in and out (no need to park offsite) is amazing. Our son started a couple of days a week at 6 months old and now at 11
months old is there 4 days a week. He’s always so happy to come in and I can see from the daily photos and videos he clearly loves being at nursery. He is developing quickly and enjoying learning new things and being with the other children in such a warm and friendly environment. I cannot fault anything and highly recommend Pumpkin Patch Crescent Road for your little ones.
Reply from Leanne de Courcy, Nursery Manager at Pumpkin Patch Nursery Worthing (Crescent Road)Thank you so much for your kind review, I know how much that will mean to the Educators.

Amazing nursery. Our little one has been going for the last 8 months and loves it. He has developed so much, learnt sign for a few words and loves getting involved in all the activities. The chef is great and they have a wide variety of food which our little boy loves. They have a great outside space

An all round excellent nursery. As a first time parent who’d never previously spent any time away from my son, I was very nervous about sending him to nursery when I returned to work. The team at Pumpkin Patch put in a lot of effort to get to know each child individually and understand their needs as
well as providing regular updates which really helped to ease the transition.
6 months in and he’s absolutely loving it. He’s really bonded with his educators, sleeps well, enjoys all the activities, eats all the food, and can’t wait to run in when I drop him off in the mornings.

I am so happy with the way that the staff at Pumpkin Patch have settled my grandson into the nursery. He likes to be kept active and there are always exciting things for him to do and learn about, doing ‘messy’ things that I just wouldn’t do with him at home. He loves going there. I was worried that
he wouldn’t nap at nursery, he wakes early and can be really tired and irritable if he doesn’t get his nap but they settle him down and he has a good 2-hour nap. Brilliant. A really lovely nursery that cares for the children and not only keeps the toddlers occupied and fed well but is also a safe place to play and cosy enough to nap.
Reply from Leanne De Courcy, Nursery Manager at Pumpkin Patch Nursery Worthing (Crescent Road)Thank you so much for taking the time to review the nursery, you play such a big role in your grandson's life so it's so wonderful for you to be able to see all the things he gets up to while he is here through the app.

My son has been attending Pumpkin Patch Crescent Road since April this year. I knew that we were going to have a challenging time settling because he is very clingy to me, but I also knew that nursery would be the best place for him. The staff were amazing at easing the process for both of us. He has
thrived since starting here (which everyone has commented on) and I think that is particularly because they have recognised where he wants to develop and facilitated it. My son has been very frustrated with not being able to communicate so the baby signing at nursery which we reinforce at home has made such a big difference. He is very attached to his key workers which is lovely to see.
Reply from Leanne De Courcy, Nursery Manager at Pumpkin Patch Nursery Worthing (Crescent Road)Thank you so much for your review, his baby signing has come on so much and he has flourished too which is all down to you guys at home working so well with the educators here to keep consistency.
