Pumpkin Patch Nursery Worthing has a forest school and a beach school for children to learn about the world and have lots of fun.

The nursery's team of skilled staff value the importance of children exploring the outdoors.

For example, the forest school enables children to explore and respect
nature, take risks and succeed.

Beach school sessions offer children aged over 3 years the chance to work together navigating rock pools, building castles, exploring and mapping found treasures while creating new friendships and learning together.

The nursery's early years education philosophy follows the Reggio Emilia Approach, which values the child as strong, capable and resilient; rich with wonder and knowledge.

'Every child brings with them deep curiosity and potential and such curiosity sparks their interest to understand the world and their role in it.

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.

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
nursery enough. Thank you to all the team.

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.

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
and our little boy loves garden time. Love receiving photos of our little boy loving nursery each week and seeing what he gets up to.

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.

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.

Our daughter started back in March after moving from another nursery. Since being here, she has absolutely blossomed and I think a big part of that is the staff they have here. You can see how much they care and how much effort they put into making each activity not only stimulating but educational
and fun.
Our daughter loves it here and the transition from the baby/toddler room to kindergarten was handled really well and she has settled in really nicely!

Both my grandchildren started this week at Pumpkin Patch although my granddaughter did start before for a couple of sessions before having to move into temporary accommodation. She was welcomed back with her brother starting with her, I'm always updated with photos and what the group has been up to
using the app. Also I'm going to their open day on Saturday, both the grandchildren I know are very happy and enjoy their time at the nursery. Also I know that they are well looked after by the staff and engaged.

I was so happy when I heard a new Pumpkin Patch was opening and enrolled my boy straight away. The communication and responsiveness has been exceptional from day one something that is so important when choosing a setting for your child. My little boy literally counts down the days to nursery and when
I pick him up he comes out beaming saying 'I had so much fun' which just warms my heart. The app keeps us updated and I feel relaxed and confident that my child is being nurtured, taken care of and supported in his development with regular reviews of his progress. I can't recommend this wonderful nursery enough! Very happy and pleased we made this setting our first choice for our boy.

We were most impressed with the staff when we went to pick up our grandson for the first time. It was encouraging for us as grandparents to see how tight the safeguarding was and the checks that were carried out before we could collect him.
He tells us who his friends are and what he has been doing
and how much he enjoys going, especially to the beach. The staff engage the children in many activities and are teaching them so many different ways to communicate, be kind, to play together, share and enjoy themselves. Our grandson is very happy and we are too that he goes to Pumpkin Patch. Thank you to all the staff for the care which you give to all the children.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.990)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.990) out of 10 for Pumpkin Patch Nursery Worthing (Crescent Road) is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 34 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 34 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.990 for Pumpkin Patch Nursery Worthing (Crescent Road) is calculated as follows: ( (401 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 405 Ratings = 4.99

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Pumpkin Patch Nursery Worthing (Crescent Road) is based on 34 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 34 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
