Little Pumpkins Nursery - South Norwood

Our son has been attending Little Pumpkins since he was 10 months old (now just over 2 years). We had initial nerves about him starting nursery as it is our first child, which quickly went! We have absolutely loved dropping him off and seeing him so happy! All of the staff are so friendly and professional, supporting him excellently. We get regular messages and updates from his key worker and room with pictures which we love to look at with him! The managing staff are fantastic, sending regular info and updates which has been especially appreciated during lockdowns and the current time we find ourselves in. We are moving out of London soon and are extremely sad to be leaving Little Pumpkins! We hope to find somewhere that our son enjoys attending so much in our new town! Thank you Little Pumpkins team!

Our son has been attending Little Pumpkins since he was just over 1 year old and he’s now nearly 3. We’ve been so happy with the care he’s received and the thoughtfulness of staff and management. We’ve seen him make good progress even though he’s only part time. Staff have been very reassuring during periods when he’s struggled with drop offs. We’re looking forward to our younger son starting later this year.

Little Pumpkins have been wonderful with our daughter, she had a tough time settling after the first lockdown and they were very supportive and flexible with her needs. Now she runs through the door every day and adores all the staff. They are wonderful at communicating, the app they use is great and the staff are always a pleasure to chat with at pick up and drop off. We would highly recommend them as a nursery.

This nursery is so great! We viewed a few nurseries when looking for our daughter and got the best feeling from walking around this one by far - all of the kids seemed so happy! She has now been there for nearly a year and absolutely loves it! She doesn’t even look back to us in the mornings - just waltzes straight in and has an awesome time! All of the staff are great and all seem to know your child’s name (even if from a different class). Also - our daughter has developed so much since attending. Couldn’t recommend highly enough!

Very professional, highly recommend this nursery!

Thank you.

I love the fact that the nursery is always doing something for the children from Halloween, Christmas, Chinese New Year, Valentines etc. Whenever the nursery shares pictures with us we see how happy the children are and engaged in the activities.

The food is varied and the outside space is nice. Overall, a well-kept nursery with staff who care.

Both of my daughters have attended Little Pumpkins, one of them currently. The staff are fabulous, friendly and professional. They are also accommodating. Their Covid measures are great and are working well. I have always felt more than happy and comfortable leaving my girls at this nursery. My girls have always been very well cared for. They have home cooked meals too, my youngest loves all the food at the nursery. My eldest whom is extremely fussy (no sauces and plain food) the nursery really assisted me in accommodating for this, by the end of pre-school she was actually trying food which was huge for her! The educational side of the nursery is fantastic too. Since starting here my youngest has really advanced and has definitely given my eldest a head start for school. Even learning French! If you want a good start in education in a safe, reliable and caring environment, this is the nursery for you.

Little Pumpkins is an excellent nursery. My daughter attended from 11 months and is now in pre-school. We are so happy with the way her development has been encouraged and how much she enjoys her time in nursery. The team work so hard and the covid response has been brilliant. Highly recommended.

The nursery is in a good location, has pretty good facilities, and is a friendly environment. Staff always know my children's names and what they like, even if they're not in the same class. They always try to make things fun but also teach good behaviour. I am happy to leave my kids in their care, even though I was initially very nervous about the idea of nursery.

My son has been attending Little Pumpkins and he really likes going there. When I pick him up, he is happy and content. He has learnt so much from the staff and the activities that the staff do with them. I get good communication from the staff about my son's needs and development, my son really enjoys the food that is freshly cooked on-site and I'm happy to know he's getting a healthy cooked meal every day. I would definitely recommend Little Pumpkins to other families looking for a safe place to leave their child.

My son started attending Little Pumpkins Nursery this year and absolutely loves going. He loves all the staff there and has improved in his development a lot since starting. I get an update at the end of each day, so I know what he been up to in the day. It's just lovely going to work knowing my child is safe happy and well looked after, every day.

My son has been at the nursery for six months now and is loving life. I cannot recommend the nursery enough. The staff are so friendly and the manager is very friendly and always goes above and beyond. The only downfall is we struggled to get the space due to the long waiting list. The nursery conducts home visits and spreads the settles over a month so by the time I had to go back to work, we were both happy and content.

My son recently graduated from preschool after two very happy years at Little Pumpkins, and my daughter has just started in the baby room. I couldn't be happier with the nursery - my children are cared for and loved and feel very much part of the Little Pumpkins family. I have recommended the nursery to a number of friends, as I feel it is a great setting to leave our little ones in while we have to work.
