All children (under 5yrs) and their parents/guardians are welcome at Building Blocks, whatever their cultural, religious, ethnic or social background, class or views. We try to cater for any disabilities your child may have.

We actively encourage you to join in every aspect of your child's life here and welcome you to spend time with us whenever possible. We will try to build strong relationships with every parent/guardian for the good of the children. We will always be approachable, responsive and friendly.

Our premises was specifically designed by an architect, to ensure that all the needs of a Nursery were met. We were in contact with the developers and builders throughout the building process, to ensure that our Nursery was built according to these needs. We are located on the Richmond Business Park. This is convenient for families living or working in Lakeside, White Rose, Potteric Carr, Town Centre, Bessacarr and the surrounding areas.
