Parent Reviews
We are so pleased with our son's experience with BB. I have been very impressed with the level of detail and consideration into lesson planning and daily updates. The lessons and activities are engaging, developmentally appropriate, and align with the school readiness philosophy. I appreciate the focus on emotional intelligence at such a young age. I am impressed with his teacher Allison's use of ASL. I am considering doing zoom classes so I can also participate at home! He seems like he truly enjoys his friends and the small community they have built. I feel assured knowing he spends a large portion of his time with people who care about him and his well being.
We are very pleased with the quality of care, the educational experiences, and the fun activities that our children receive at Building Blocks. We continue to receive support and consistent communication from the staff and directors as well. When we needed to schedule a meeting regarding our child’s individual needs, Melixa made it possible for an in person parent/teacher meeting with both of the classroom teachers. This was extremely helpful to our son/our family and we truly appreciate the staff’s willingness to work as a team to help our son as he develops and grows. We are always impressed with the school’s curriculum, STEAM-based activities, social emotional learning, as well as with the teachers who work hard to make every day a fun learning experience. Our children look forward to the special days and events that are held at the school (i.e. Pizza day, ice cream social, pajama day, etc.) We always feel welcome in the school and a part of the school community.
Our children receive outstanding care at Building Blocks. All of the staff members know our children and they are treated as individuals. The staff go above and beyond to foster safe, caring, and supportive relationships with them.
