The Child Care People

Welcome to the place where our success story started from, our flagship branch in East Mains Industrial Estate, Broxburn. Wee Gems was launched in July 2005 after nine month preparation and planning which just like the pregnancy it had many ups and downs and the final opening week was just as hard as giving birth, however the outcome just like having your little Gems was very satisfying.

Wee Gems has become the West Lothian’s leading and most talked about childcare centre in a very short space of time and we have set totally new standards for our sector.

What Our Parents Say

Joined my daughter there when she was 3 years in March 2021. I was very much worried about her as she is very much dependent on me and how she gonna manage in nursery. But to my surprise, she was happy going there just in 2 to 3 days and she loved the staff there. I could see much improvement in her English communication although it's not our spoken language at home. Teaching wise also they are good with some weekly concept. Overall very happy.

My son started a couple of weeks ago and he has adapted very well, he looks very happy and when he sees his teachers his little eyes brighten up, this gives me the confidence and tranquillity that he is safe and very well looked after.
Parent 2022Broxburn
Parent 2022
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.
