Welcome To Pumpkins
When local Day Care was in short supply and left a lot to be desired, Gail Boland decided to open up her own nursery. A vibrant and fun environment where children could feel at home and enjoy learning through play.
Since opening its doors in 1993, Pumpkins nursery remains the longest standing nursery on Canvey Island.
Why not come along for a visit or ask our parents why Pumpkins is the right choice for childcare and development.
Established Since 1993

I couldn’t have asked for a better nursery. The constant attention to detail, the love, the extra mile each and every one of the staff do on a daily basis is outstanding. I would always recommend Pumpkins, Both myself and my children are going to miss them when they go to big school. Thank you for everything you have done for us, I will be forever grateful
Pumpkins is truly an outstanding Nursery. The time and dedication all of the caregivers give to all of the children that attend is beyond amazing. It’s wonderful to see our child grow and learn everyday she attends. Nothing is ever too much trouble and attention to detail is fantastic. The children are always busy enjoying crafts or learning something new and we’re updated constantly on their progress and development. Really couldn’t recommend Ashleigh and her wonderful team enough, thank you!
