Building a Strong Foundation

Welcome to Building Blocks, the daycare that is your home away from home! At all of our daycares and preschool centers, our outstanding teachers help and encourage children to learn and grow at their own pace. Our modern, spacious facilities and high-quality, in-person, small group programs are designed to provide healthy and loving educational experiences for all children.

We are building a strong foundation for all of the children in our care.  We engage infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and Kindergarteners with age-appropriate social-emotional learning (SEL) and physical activities.  Our approach to SEL is heavily influenced by the Connecticut-founded “Choose Love” program.  It is our mission to help all Connecticut children establish an early love of learning, participate in healthy habits, and live happy lives!

Health & Safety

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact all of our lives and routines, Building Blocks remains committed to Connecticut children and working families.  Hear from our network of parents, teachers, and leaders on how our responsible response and reopenings have helped so many during this challenging time.

COVID Response

Building Blocks Response to COVID-19

As we continue to model for our children what it means to be “in this together,” Building Blocks would like to express our sincere gratitude for the patience and partnership of all of our staff, families, and area health and education officials.  As a leader, a mom with children in our program, and a person who genuinely cares about the health and wellness of others, I am comforted by our collective commitment to reduce the spread and transmission of COVID-19.

With gratitude,

President

  • "BBELC, much accredited to their name has provided the foundation for our two little girls to become independent and eager toddlers. My oldest upon meeting her prospective kindergarten teacher, astounded her with her advancement in language, writing and behavior making us completely confident in seeing the mirrored results in our youngest. This is a safe, clean and accelerated facility and a kind, educated and eager faculty team that has surpassed our expectations in every way. "

  • "After our first tour we knew this was "the place" for our daughter. We were looking around for a center that offered a great curriculum and one that wasn't too large that it felt intimidating. This place was the perfect fit and size inside and out. My daughter looks forward to going to "school" each day – it was such a relief as a parent to see her run in each morning to be with her friends and teachers. She will stay in this program until she heads to kindergarten."

  • "Building Blocks is wonderful!  As a first time parent, I was very nervous to have my daughter in someone else's care.  But from day one, all of the teachers and staff were there to listen to my questions and comfort my nerves.  My daughter is learning and thriving and Building Blocks is a huge part of that.  We love them!"

  • "As a working parent, it is not easy to have someone else watch over your children, but a reality for many people. I looked at several locations in the area before choosing Building Blocks in Wilton. I wanted a daycare that fostered learning, but equally dedicated to creating a safe, fun and loving environment. Both of my children enrolled at Building Blocks when they were 6 months old and are currently still enrolled years later.

    The teachers and administrators are always welcoming and truly care about all of the children. Both of my children are always excited to go to school and love to tell me about all of the fun things they did that day! I am consistently impressed with the new things they learn and the extent that all of the teachers go to in order to make their experiences fun and interesting!"
