My name is Iain Campbell, and I am the nursery manager for Wee Gems Corstorphine. I have worked in childcare for 9 years where I began my career as a Playworker in after school clubs. Over the years I worked up the ladder to operations manager. In this time i achieved my SVQ 3 Social Services (Children and Young People) at SCQF Level 7. I decided to change my path in the after-school club industry to focus on nursery management. I have so far thoroughly enjoyed my role as a nursery manager, and I am looking forward to where my new journey takes me.

My name is Gillian I have been with Wee Gems for 3 years now and absolutely love it! I went back to university and in 2020 after many years out of formal education completed my modules to become a manager. Over the past 3 years I have been given the opportunity to develop and progress in my career and I can’t thank Wee Gems and the families I have met enough. I enjoy working with families as they embark on their Wee Gems journey with their child and share the children’s experiences daily. In years to come I will be thankful that I have an abundance of happy memories from my working life.
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.
