Our little boy is thriving at nursery and it's all thanks to the staff who help him. They have supported him well with feeding himself and are very attentive to him. I trust them to provide the best care and service for my little one.
Thank you for taking the time to review us. We are so glad to hear your wee one is thriving, and we look forward to continuing to support him during his journey with us.
Excellent facilities for the kids, great outdoor space and always providing engaging learning opportunities.
Thank you so much for your Review. We are happy to hear that you and you child feels welcomed and at home with us.
"The teachers are incredibly dedicated, fostering a truly supportive and challenging environment.
Thank you for your review, we are glad to hear you are happy with our care
They take time to get to know the child's likes and dislikes to provide the best care. They do messy play and lots of arts and crafts. Food selection it's amazing and they always offer alternative if needed.
Handover is always detailed.
I have never been in doubt my child is in safe hands. I recommend this nursery to everyone.
The management team.
Wee Gems is a great nursery, all employees are very attentive and have very good relationships with the children. Our son loves going there, playing with all his new friends and cuddle up with staff when he's feeling blue. Communication is also great.
Thank you so much for your review, we are glad to hear your positive words.
Our daughter started here from when she was just 9months and is now 1.2years. The staff are brilliant, always keeping us up-to-date with whats happening, also they are flexible in providing extra sessions, we couldnt more happier. I would highly recommend this nursery
Thank you so much for your review. We are glad you are happy with the care and we can't wait to keep supporting your daughter and you all further in her journey
I love this nursery and my daughter does too. She's nurtured and well looked after. She's feed fresh food and they keep me upto date on what she's been up too. They have been really flexible with our needs and to cover our work commitments
Thank you for your review. We are glad that we were able to help and support you.
The communication is second to none, I've had a previous child in another private nursery and the communication there was a hit or miss. Wee Gems constantly updates the famly app with all the information about their day and cute photos! Puts my mind at ease. The twins and I both love Wee Gems!
Thank you for your review. We love having the boys in, and so glad you are happy with the care and communications. We look forward to supporting both boys through their time at the nursery.
We moved to the area a year ago and are very lucky to have found a place that provides such a caring and nurturing environment. Care plans are clear, communication has been excellent from the start and any difficulties are quickly identified and addressed. Every member of staff seems to genuinely care about the kids and are happy to talk at any time.
Thank you so much for your review. We appreciate your feedback and are glad we have been able to offer a caring and nurturing environment for your wee one. We look forward to continuing to support over the next couple of years.
A difficult year with the pandemic, they navigated through it with professionalism and as much flexibility as they could afford.
It would be insincere of me to say that there have been no problems but what I would say is that Wee Gems have always, in my opinion, been open to feedback and criticism and taking my very dark sense of humour very much on the chin.
I've grown exceptionally fond of the staff there who are always bright and bubbly and will not hesitate to stop for a chat, comfort me and at times, invite me in for a coffee when I've burst into tears at the door!
Thank you so much for your review. We are glad we have been able to support you and your children. We will always do our best to do so. our team is always here if you need a chat.
Great staff, always go above and beyond! Super accommodating. Can't fault them, great relationships with children always going the extra mile to make you feel at ease! Daughter has been going here for almost 2 years and never had any issues.
Thank you so much for your review. Glad to hear you are happy with our care.
My daughter has been attending Wee Gems Armadale for over 2 years. The staff are friendly and reliable, the facilities are modern. There seem to be plenty of activities for the children to learn and grow.
Thank you Elspeth for your positive feedback. We look forward to continue supporting your daughter here at Wee Gems.
My daughter has been going to after school club at Wee Gems for over a year and my son at nursery for 4 months. The facilities are great, lots for the children to do. The staff are all lovely and always polite. The communication from the Nursery is great, regular updates and photos on how your little one is getting on. My son struggles with me leaving, the girls always send me an update to let me know he has settled, which is always very quickly. I have never had any issues and would recommend Wee Gems.
Thank you Yvonne for the positive feedback. We appreciate it and we look forward to continuing to support both of your children.
Our daughter has attended Wee Gems Armadale for the last 3.5 years. We have always found that the nursery meets our needs and the staff have always been great for my daughter and as parents. More recently there seems to be more focused learning which is great to see and is having a big impact on my daughter's learning. Staff are always helpful and approachable and I would recommend this nursery to others.
Thank you for your review. We are glad to hear that you are seeing more focused learning. We look forward to continuing to support your wee one on their journey.
My boy has been at Wee Gems for nearly 3 years. The kids have lovely breakfasts and lunches and the staff are always so nice. I like seeing the pictures on the app and the observations are really helpful to see how he's getting on and where he is. Management are on it all the time and always make time to help if you have any questions. You can tell the kids love the staff too. My boy took a fit at the nursery and the staff were absolutely amazing! They did absolutely everything they could for him and were so quick with first aid and calling an ambulance. Literally can't fault them at all. They supported us as a family by checking in with us. I trust this nursery to always be the best for every child it looks after and I'm so grateful we picked them. 100% recommend Wee Gems Armadale to anyone needing childcare!
Thank you so much for your review. We are glad to be able to help and support you and your wee boy.
Wee Gems have been amazing to my little boy. The management are lovely and the staff are always so nice. The atmosphere of the nursery is great, my boy always has access to a range of activities. They also have a garden where the kids can spend time outside. Recent renovations including toilets and floors look great too. They have always been great with my little one who has always struggled going into nursery. The staff have always been great with trying new ways to get him in and are great at communicating how he has been throughout the day. Would definitely recommend the nursery to anyone looking for childcare, my wee boy has come on massively since being there!
Thank you so much for your review. We are glad you are happy with nursery and we look forward to continuing to support your wee one on their journey.
Very flexible nursery, great for working parents! Easy clear invoicing. Lovely caring staff who focus on behaviour and education and make it fun for the children. Monthly reports show you progress of your children and lots of nice photos and info uploaded daily on their user-friendly app.
Hello, We are so glad to hear your positive feedback.
Amazing place and all staff very professional. We have used Wee Gems since 2018 and both our kids love it. Kids are well looked after with many fun activities and learning resources. Management and all the team have been always nice and helpful, going above and beyond to support kids and family! Definitely highly recommend!
Hello Katerina, we are so glad to hear your positive feedback. It's been a pleasure to have been part of both your children's journey for such a long time.
Wee Gems Nursery is like a family, both my girls go. One of my daughters went to nursery there and now goes to after school club and my other daughter is at the nursery. We had issues with my daughter going to school and Wee Gems helped. They know her from her nursery days and spent time with her to help explain why school was so important. Wee Gems has been good for both girls, making friends and learning new things. We also get regular updates about their progress which is nice to see.
Hello Pauline, We are so glad to hear you and your family feel part of our Wee Gems family. We look forward to continuing to support them both in the years to come.
My daughter struggles with drop off and they always give extra support to us to help her settle in. Similarly with toddlers fussy eating and stool withholding - they have been so supportive with issues which need extra time.
The nursery has recently undergone a freshen up and it was a bit stark at first but the staff are working to add displays and personality back into the space.
Like any childcare setting, there has been some staff turnover and there could be better communication around this from management- such as clear updates on key worker changes.
Overall a great nursery and I’m glad I chose it for my child.
Thank you for your review. We are glad you have chosen to keep your little one with us for her preschool years. We look forward to continuing to help her grow and develop.
