The staff are amazing and I have no worries while my child is in their care.
I believe they offer a great range of activities each day my little girl is in and she is stimulated from the minute she gets in until

They are always singing, dancing, doing messy activities (which I wouldn't even attempt at home!) and out playing in the garden/out for walks. Can't fault the variety of activities they offer. Great for encouraging a child's confidence and development.
A healthy and tasty sounding menu is provided. My little boy regularly eats all and goes back for seconds so it must be good!
Parents are kept very well informed via the Parent Zone app and site which are really handy. Friends and colleagues are often impressed when I can see how my little boy's day is going from an app on my phone.
Overall, delighted with the service provided. My boy is well looked after and seems to thoroughly enjoy his days at nursery. Happy baby = happy mum. Thanks to the team at Wee Gems Armadale for doing such a great job.

My daughter has been going to this nursery for around 9 months now.
She absolutely loves it.
I have never had tears when leaving her and I believe the staff have never had tears from her, which in itself shows she is happy.
All the staff are friendly and knowledgable and I'm very happy leaving her in their care, knowing that they will look after her. What I like is that all the staff know my daughter not just the staff working in her room and in return I also know all the staff not just the ones looking after it.
The staff keep you up to date with the progress of your child after each visit and can always tell you everything about what they have been upto.
The nursery brings in outside organisations to do different activities with the kids which is great for giving them a taster of other social groups available out with nursery.
I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone looking to put their child into a nursery.
A massive thumbs up from me.

My son is always given a warm and friendly welcome when he arrives. The staff are caring and take the time to get to know your child, and I always enjoy hearing what he has been getting up to when I go to pick him up. There is also an app where you can check in with their progress throughout the day.
I would highly recommend this nursery and I'm really happy with the service.

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.684) out of 10 for Wee Gems - Armadale is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 17 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.
The Average Rating of 4.911 for Wee Gems - Armadale is calculated as follows: ( (187 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 202 Ratings = 4.911
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').
The 4.773 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Wee Gems - Armadale is based on 17 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 110 number of registered child places is 22. 17 Positive Reviews ÷ 22 = 0.773
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
