Our little one has been at Wee Gems Armadale for a year and a half, and we cannot praise the nursery highly enough. The staff in every room are friendly, supportive and put so much hard work and care into their roles. The nursery is flexible and accomodating to hours. Our little one loves her time here and her development has come on in leaps and bounds! Thank you to everyone at Wee Gems for helping her flourish.
Thank you so much for your review, it means so much that we are able to make a difference to your wee one.
My little girl started nursery at Wee Gems a few months ago at one year old and the nursery has been excellent. The staff members in the baby room (Kirsten, Kara, Melissa and Zoe) are all fantastic with my child and also very patient with apprehensive parents. I genuinely look forward to the little updates throughout the day and the observations showing how they are progressing. Also a specific mention for how great Kirsty the manager at this branch, she's helpful, enthusiastic and also seems to be really involved with the kids. She was a large part of what convinced us Wee Gems was the right place for our child.
Thank you so much for your kind words about the team and myself. We are so glad you choose us for your childcare and we can't wait to continue making memories for your wee one.
Our baby boy started nursery this year and we were so nervous with the whole thing. The staff were amazing, came to meet him at the home first and then settled him in over a number of weeks until we both felt ready. First 5/6 sessions were so hard with the drop offs and crying but once our parent portal was set up we could see how happy he was at nursery and taking part in such lovely activities. He is currently transitioning to settle into the next room and seems to be enjoying the next stage. I can't thank the girls Kirsten, Kara, Zoe and Melissa for all their hard work, patience, care and most of all keeping our baby boy safe and happy while we are not there. Really appreciate the updates on the parent portal with pictures and great detail as well as the hand over info we get about his little day. I was so apprehensive about using a private nursery from a young age but our boy is happy and thriving! Highly recommend, lovely team.
Thank you so much for your review. We are glad to hear your boy is happy and thriving. We have loved getting to know him and we cant wait to see how he continues to grow and develop.
She struggled with separation anxiety and the staff went above and beyond to support her
Thank you so much for your review. It has been a pleasure to be a part of the journey. We wish her the best of luck at Primary
Absolutely fantastic staff! My wee daughter is loved and cared for with attention and great kindness, even though she is attending only 2 sessions per week. Everyone is always smiling and greeting us nicely when arriving, and is absolutely positive during the day. I can feel on my wee one that she loves being here, and she feels safe.
Thank you so much for your review we are so glad to hear your wee one is happy with us.
Absolutely love Wee Gems! My little boy is now 18 months old and has been going for 4 months now & he adores the staff and the facilities offered. I love the daily dairies and weekly observations. Highly recommend!
Thank you for your review. We are so glad to hear you are happy happy with our care and daily updates.
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.
