My wee boy has attended this nursery from 2022 he loves the staff and the children I would recommend this nursery from babies to 23 and up, I am actually sad for my wee boy to leave this year as starts school, they're all lovely.
Thank you so much for your review. We will be sad to see him leave for school, but have loved being a part of his early journey.
There is a calm vibe when I collect her and she is always engaged in play with other children, as an only child she would not have this experience if she was not in nursery.
Although my granddaughter does not always try the wide range of foods available, they always ensure she has eaten something.
The staff are knowledgeable of her needs and always attentive to them.
There have been a few staff changes of late, but this has never had a negative impact, those who know my grandchild ensure that she is cared for and introduced to new staff as they arrive, this helps her to understand that change is not something to fear.
Thank you for your review. We are glad she is always engaged in play, and feels safe with our team.
I sent my baby boy to Wee Gems at 10 months old with me returning to work. The staff in the baby room are just amazing and my wee boy loves them and this wee nursery. He also really enjoys the outdoor space they have at Wee Gems Armadale along with the food provided.
Thank you for your review, we are so glad to hear that the staff from the baby room have been amazing with your wee one. We look forward to helping him learn and grow during his time with us.
We have been at Wee Gems for nearly 2 years now and my little boy has loved it. He is nervous whenever he has moved rooms but the staff have always been great with him and us. Every day he comes home telling us what he has done and played with his friends. His speech and development have come on massively and he is doing great. Really lovely nursery that care and get to know each individual child.
Thank you for your review. We are glad to hear that the staff have supported both you and your boy during his transitions, and we love that he goes home and tells you all about his day.
Wee Gems has been a great experience for my son. He has made lots of new friends and the staff have really helped him to increase his confidence. My son has medical needs and staff have been very accommodating of these, particularly in supporting him to manage independently, both in a practical sense and in terms of how he chooses to share with other children.
Many thanks for your kind words regarding your positive experience with Wee Gems Armadale. We are so pleased to hear this!
My little boy has been at Wee Gems nursery since he was 9 months old and is now in preschool, Wee Gems Armadale is a fantastic nursery and like a second home to my little boy, he just loves it. The staff and the management are just amazing! Through the pandemic you have gone above and beyond, I can’t thank you enough! 5-stars Wee Gems.
Thank you very much for your kind words, we are very pleased to hear about your positive experience with Wee Gems.
My boy has always been very clingy and all I can say is the nursery was very helpful and very informative when it comes to him! I feel very comfortable with him being there and I’m really starting to see a change in him thanks to the nursery.
Thank you very much for your kind words, we are very pleased to hear about your positive experience with Wee Gems.
Wee Gems have been great with our daughter. She loves going to nursery and the staff have been brilliant with her. They keep us really well updated throughout the day and do so many different activities with her. We are really happy with Wee Gems and are glad we decided to send her there.
Our little boy started nursery in January. He absolutely loves going and settled in really quickly. The updates and photos on the app show how much he enjoys it, along with the excitement when we pull up in the car park. All the staff we have spoken to have been lovely and extremely helpful. He has come on leaps and bounds and is showing us new things every week. We love the updates on the app. Thank you for everything you do, especially during this difficult time.
Hi There, We are delighted to hear your little one loves coming to Wee Gems and thank you for your wonderful feedback.
My little girl has been going to Wee Gems since July 2020. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff. We love the Famly App the nursery uses. The outdoor area is a great big space. My little girl loves going to nursery. Lots of theme weeks and different activities.
Hi There, Thank you so much for your kind words and we are delighted to hear your satisfaction with the service that you receive from Wee Gems.
My little boy has been at the nursery since he was 10 months and he is now 27 months and he has come on leaps and bounds ever since. That is down to everyone at Wee Gems who are fantastic at bringing the best out in him. Thank you so much.
Hi there, Thank you for your kind words, we are absolutely delighted to hear your satisfaction with the level of service you receive here at Wee Gems.
My daughter has only been at the nursery since August but she loves it. The girls are always so friendly and welcoming and the food they are provided with is a really high standard. They are excellent with providing updates around what she is doing in the nursery and how she is getting on, which is really appreciated. She is very happy in this nursery.

Wee Gems Armadale is a fantastic nursery. My child enjoys attending the nursery and talks about it all the time. The staff are friendly and very supportive of the children. They provide personable and excellent caring services. Wee Gems Armadale is very inclusive and flexible. They understand and practice a reliable service. I would recommend it to friends and family.
Hi there, Thank you for your kind words, we are absolutely delighted to hear your satisfaction with the level of service you receive here at Wee Gems.
My daughter has attended this nursery for the last 2 years and I have recommended it to everyone I know who has been looking for a private nursery for their child. She has had the opportunity to engage in numerous different learning experiences, create positive relationships with both staff and other children and have fun at the same time; she looks forward to going to nursery!
Both my daughter and now my son have attended Wee Gems and I can honestly say I can leave each day to go to work knowing the staff will take the very best care of them. My daughter is now at nursery school but begs to go back to Wee Gems. I love that at any time I’ll come into the nursery and the girls can give me an update on everything happening and that I can watch my children play happily for a minute before they see me. So I know they genuinely love being there. I recommended Wee Gems to my friends having babies and they are also very impressed. The ParentZone app is great as I can see the progress they are making and the staff are great at keeping it updated.
Wee Gems - Armadale transformed how I feel about nurseries. I always thought childminders were the best and safest way, however, I have been proven wrong!
Every week I get an update on the portal about what she has been doing and pictures which is great to see.
The staff are also fab at doing activities with the children which my little one enjoys very much.
All in all, so glad we chose to move her to this nursery. It’s a great place.
Fantastic nursery. Staff are approachable, friendly and have great relationships with my children meaning I trust them 100% with my kids. The manager is again helpful, friendly and approachable. She also spends time with the children rather than always being in the office. My children have developed a great deal since starting at Wee Gems and this is down to mainly the learning and interactions from staff. I know my pre-schooler will miss the teachers a great deal when she leaves for primary 1, this year. Highly recommend this nursery and can’t fault them on anything.
Our daughter first started with this nursery at just under 1 year old and we were nervous to leave her as we felt she was so young to be in nursery all day. However, after a few weeks, it was evident that our daughter enjoyed her time in the nursery, she bonded with the staff quickly and enjoyed exploring with her little friends. She's been in for 8 months now and whilst the environment remains friendly for her to play and explore, she has learned so much too. It's when she shows us the actions to the nursery rhythms, when she starts singing and dancing as soon as the radio comes on, she eats her meals by herself and loves to draw and colour in and holds the pencils perfectly. It's the little things that they do to help develop the children that matter. It's also worth noting that if you have a concern no matter how small it may be, they take the time to listen and action.
Staff at Wee Gems always keep me up to date with her progress and what they are working on with her. It's great for her to mix with children of different ages.
There is a lovely garden with a separate section for the babies. I love the fact they take her on walks etc too as I am keen to ensure that she is isn't always indoors.
The food is excellent and they have a good variety.
I use their app parent zone which is great for keeping up to date with what my daughter has been doing throughout the day. The activities they do are not only fun but educational.
We also recently had a parents night which was very informative on my daughter's progress and next goals that the staff are focusing on with her.
Thank you Anna for your lovely comments.
