“My grandson has attended Scallywags for the last two years. The staff are just amazing, always there with a smile to greet him every morning. They keep a very active little boy busy and safe with lots of fun activities and encouragement. He has made lots of friends and really enjoys his time at nursery. His development has come on leaps and bounds and he is now ready to move on to school in the summer. Thank you Scallywags!”.

Brilliant nursery with wonderful staff who treat the children like their own family. My daughter has been with Scallywags full time since she was 9 months old and is just about to leave for primary school. The nursery have been so accommodating to our family’s needs and we feel a genuine connection with them. Our daughter is a confident and happy little girl and Scallywags has played a major part in that. I honestly couldn’t recommend them enough.

Vicki Smith

“Our little boy has only gone to Scallywags for a short time and I can honestly say its a brilliant nursery.
We were stuck when his nursery closed down.
Gillian was very helpful in securing a space for us.
Our little one has settled in, in no time.
He skips in the door and doesn’t want to leave come home time.
This makes us feel confident and happy that our most treasured person is being looked after well and is clearly having lots of fun”.

David McLeish

Scallywags has been such an important part of our family for the last 6+ years. The team fill us, as parents, with confidence that our children are seen as important to them as they are to us.

Our 8 year old came through the Scallywags ‘system’ from the baby room onwards and the care, nurturing and learning she received was incredible. Now our toddler is attending, we are already seeing improvements in speech and turn-taking, thanks to the work of her key worker and wider team. We can’t imagine a better place than Scallywags.

I have used Scallywags nursery for both my kids. Best nursery in Carnoustie by a mile. Staff and management are fantastic. Great home cooked meals by their cook. And a great outdoor space for kids to play. Daughter always leaves happy with lots of stories about how good her day was.

Megan Cummings

Our daughter has attended Scallywags since she was 5 months old and loves every minute of it. The ladies in the Baby Room are amazing and put the children at the forefront of everything they do.

Jolene McGurk

Our son attended scallywags from 14 months right through till he moved onto school. We aren’t local to Carnoustie but his transition to school was more than we could have asked for Gillian contacted the school and arranged for the girls at scallywags to make visits to the school with our son so he could make friendships and feel comfortable with the school before starting p1 for which we will be forever grateful.

Our daughter has just recently started within the baby room and she has settled really well she gets so excited when going into nursery she loves it. The staff in all areas go above and beyond for all the children and treat them as they would their own, I’m glad both of our children have had the chance to experience the wonderful scallywags family.
