We pledge

A safe, happy place where every child is seen

Building Blocks supports each child's creative, thinking and social growth. Our experienced teachers nurture individuality and independence in a warm, caring setting.

Small teacher-to-student ratios let us focus on both academic and social development, so children learn to share, cooperate and build trusting relationships with their peers and teachers.

Since 1986

Nearly four decades on Sandalwood Parkway

Building Blocks Nursery School was founded in 1986 to address the lack of quality early childhood programs in the area. Nearly forty years later, we are still a small, licensed school where every teacher knows every child by name.

Over the years we have added teachers with special-needs and elementary experience, a structured phonics program that has children reading early, and a program statement grounded in Ontario's How Does Learning Happen? pedagogy.
