Quick link here about our infant program
“We love baby’s”. We want your baby to feel loved, safe and secure.
We hold babies when they are being bottle-fed, rock them, give them
exploration time, tummy time. We want them to have the loving
nourishment that an infant needs.
Baby's are born learning and our program is building upon great
learning experiences for your little one.

During their toddler years at Building Blocks children develop social
skills as they learn to care for and respect one another, and as they
learn to problem solve. Loris Malaguzzi, founder of the programs in
Reggio Emilia, has taught us that children express their thoughts and
feelings through 100 Languages, the spoken word certainly, but also
through gesture, music, constructing, dramatic play, dance, paint,
clay, and drawing to name a few. Exploring these languages prepare
children for their future journeys in preschool.

Quick link here about our Preschool program
Our multi-age preschool grouping of children 33 months to 5 years
is intended to increase the heterogeneity of the group to capitalize on
the differences in the experience, knowledge, and abilities of
the children. By combining a multi-age group of children,
team teaching, the Reggio Emilia approach, Emergent Curriculum,
the Project Approach, and Themed Units we have truly created
a child-centered environment. Disguised for learning, Play offers
hands on experiences that allow a child to explore, manipulate and
create. Activities are based around the creative arts.
