February 26, 2018 at 12:00 amMy little boy has been attending Wee Gems since he was 11 months old and he loves it. The staff are fantastic with him; he’s a stubborn and demanding little lad who requires lots of cuddles and everyone is always patient with him. I’m also grateful for all the teaching and encouragement they give him, as a working mum it is a relief to know that he is being so well looked after. The food is always healthy and great tasting (he usually has extra!), the nursery is very clean and the facilities are excellent. I’m so glad we chose Wee Gems and would definitely recommend it.

February 27, 2018 at 12:00 amOur daughter has been going to Wee Gems since she was 11 months old. The hours are perfect for accommodating full time working parents. The nursery is located within walking distance to the train station making it very handy for dropping off and picking up if travelling into Edinburgh/Glasgow for work. Staff have always been very approachable and helpful. Most importantly our daughter enjoys going to Wee Gems.

March 26, 2018 at 12:00 amI cannot rate this nursery highly enough! My son has been going since he was nine months old and it was the best decision we made. He was going one day a week then he loved it that much we have put it up to three. He does so much when he is at nursery and always runs in and can’t wait to go in. I love the great observations we receive to let us know how he is getting on. He has the best time and the staff are the nicest people.
My son has been in the baby room and the 1-2 room and will be going up to the 2-3 room which I was very nervous about but the staff have been taking him up throughout his days in nursery to help him adjust which he has loved anyway. I cannot thank the nursery enough. I feel that my son is in a happy and safe place.

July 19, 2018 at 12:00 amMy son started at Wee Gems at 6 months and was initially in full time due to our childminder being unavailable over summer. I was worried about putting him in so young and for 5 days a week but any concerns I had were out of the window within days! My son absolutely loves going to nursery, he giggles as we walk up the path and he is so happy to see the staff each morning. When I pick him up he is always happy and contended. The staff at Wee Gems are absolutely fantastic – caring, informative and clearly passionate about children. They have been really accomodating when we asked to change his attendance days and we are always kept up to date with our son’s daily activities via the parent website. The staff go above and beyond to help – I would thoroughly recommend this nursery.

October 4, 2018 at 12:00 amOur Daughter has been attending Wee Gems – Livingston since she was 1 year old. She has been in the babies room, 1-2’s room and is currently in the 2-3’s room. She loves nursery and it has been great to see our Daughter develop her skills so much, which Wee Gems has been a great contributor. Children are involved in so many activities on a daily basis and the staff are always so welcoming and have a lovely relationship with our Daughter. They post online observations of your child via a secure system which is lovely to receive, especially when you are at work. The meals and drinks provided are a good varied diet and is freshly made by the nursery chef; our Daughter always asks for more because it is so tasty! The opening hours are also accommodating for working parent(s).

January 28, 2021 at 12:00 amAfter having a few months at home, due to lockdowns and being moved from another nursery, Wee Gems have helped my little girl settle in really well. She is always asking when it is time to go to the nursery which makes me very happy and comfortable with sending her. The staff have all been really reassuring. I also love the app and being updated throughout the day allows me to still feel connected to her. Would definitely recommend Wee Gems Livingston to family and friends.

January 28, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been attending Wee Gems Nursery from 2019. From day one, I was so impressed with this nursery and how devoted the staff are to caring for the children. My daughter always looks forward to going every day. It is so comforting that she is somewhere where she is happy. The staff are friendly and approachable, always there for any queries or advice. My daughter has came on leaps and bounds with her learning and is more than ready for school this year, thanks to Wee Gems. Highly recommend this nursery.

January 28, 2021 at 12:00 amI was so nervous to send my daughter to nursery. The staff were great at answering all my questions and making me feel as at ease about it, as I could be. They give me helpful updates as to how she is doing, which put me more at ease. My daughter absolutely loves nursery now and runs to the door. You can tell the staff have a great relationship with her and she loves them too. I also love the app – it’s fantastic.

February 1, 2021 at 12:00 amMy son started this nursery in August at age 18 months. He settled in extremely fast and all members of staff constantly gave updates on how his days were going, which for me as a first-time mum, was a massive relief. Since then, they have faced many challenges due to Covid 19 and I can ‘hand on heart’ say I feel that, as a key worker, my child is safe while there.

February 19, 2021 at 12:00 amCannot fault Wee Gems Livingston for anything. Our son has been attending since he was 5 months old and throughout all stages of his development and learning, the staff at Wee Gems Livingston have been nothing but amazing. They always keep you up to date with daily activities and always work with you to ensure the best for our son (and all other children attending). Our daughter is due to start Wee Gems Livingston in May and my niece also attends. The nursery has a great reputation and all staff are always welcoming and happy to help. Our son thrives in life already and Wee Gems Livingston has contributed to this greatly. We really do appreciate everything they do for us.

May 4, 2021 at 12:00 amI could not fault this establishment, my son has thrived since attending Wee Gems – Livingston. The staff are passionate, treat every child as an individual, are accommodating to my needs as a parent and so much more. The standard of care is optimum, they have all worked amazingly throughout the pandemic and they deserve an award.

May 4, 2021 at 12:00 amOur daughter is enjoying every day. She is learning new things and she is very happy. Staff are very reasonable and taking care of the children very well. Since my daughter started, she got used to them very quickly. One member of staff is my daughter’s favourite, my daughter loves her.

May 4, 2021 at 12:00 amI am very satisfied with the service provided by the nursery. My child seems very content with the staff and engaged with the activities. I have noticed a big difference in his social and motor skills, since attending. My child joined during the pandemic, their key worker and the nursery were very respectful and helpful with regards to settling him into his new routine while adhering to the strict rules.

The staff are so good with him and they provide photos and updates via the app about his day, which is so helpful. It is lovely to see the connection he has with so many of the staff and I’m always surprised at the number of different activities they get him involved with.

February 24, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter has had a wonderful experience at Wee Gems. After moving back to the UK in the summer, my daughter settled in right away. She was then diagnosed with a dairy intolerance and the staff were amazing at keeping my mind at ease during this transition. They provided alternative food options at a drop of a hat and ensured my daughter was safe, happy and healthy.
