Building Blocks is a Good Ofsted setting (Nov 2023) that provides high quality care and education for children between the ages of 6 weeks and 4 years.
From their Beautiful Babies right through to their Nursery School the curriculum design at Building Blocks is centered around ensuring every child has the knowledge, skills and understanding required to meet the Early Learning Goals (ELG) by the end of their Reception year. Building Blocks works in partnership with parents/carers to promote the learning and development of all children in their care to prepare them for ‘school life.’ Through their knowledge of Child Development and with reference to the Characteristics of Effective Learning and Teaching and the Early Years Outcomes, Building Blocks, delivers their curriculum through the ‘Planning in the Moment’ approach that enables every child that attends to thrive and make progress that is unique to their individual level of development.
You are able to ‘check in’ on your child throughout the day via their web camera system giving you access to all classrooms and outdoor spaces.
Building Blocks provide two home cooked meals (lunch and dinner) and am/pm snacks and have a well thought out, balanced menu which are prepared freshly on site. All meals include fresh fruit and vegetables, high quality meat and poultry and minimal use of sugar.
Building Blocks have a dedicated and long standing team of staff that exceed required government ratios complimenting an effective key carer system.
Building Blocks are located within close proximity to Wimbledon town centre, local transport links and local park. Commuting parents will find their setting within easy walking distance of both Wimbledon train and tram stations.

As a Grandad who often picks my grandson up from the nursery I think I am in a position to write a meaningful review. This is an excellent nursery where they not only look after your children/ grandchildren but I really feel they really care about them with genuine warmth. Our grandson went there just before his first birthday and left there just before his third birthday due to relocation. We all have nothing but praise for the care and love they have given him. They truly got to know him and even prepare a handover for him to brief the new nursery. Without a doubt, if it wasn't for the relocation, our grandson would still be there and his new baby brother would be joining him. A warm and heartfelt thank you to everyone one of the staff - our lovely lad came in a little baby and left a well balanced and confident near 3 year old. Could not recommend more highly.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We are thrilled that your experiences with the nursery were so positive and that you feel your grandson was so well cared for. We were so sad to see him leave but know he will do great at his new setting.
Such a special nursery. Our little boy has been with Building Blocks since he was 11 months (he's now fast approaching 3) and we are incredibly grateful for this amazing place. All of the staff at BB are so very special - they're so caring, really know the children and constantly go above and...
Such a special nursery. Our little boy has been with Building Blocks since he was 11 months (he's now fast approaching 3) and we are incredibly grateful for this amazing place. All of the staff at BB are so very special - they're so caring, really know the children and constantly go above and beyond. The nursery is brilliant at adapting to each stage of a child's development and individual interests. The settling in process is second to none. Our little boy couldn't be happier and I credit a lot of his development to BB. Thank you BB!
Thank you so much for your kind words. It has been a pleasure having you all as part of our family for the past few years and we wish you all the best in the future.

Building blocks took great care of both our children, the carers were really invested in their wellbeing and development, we felt like they treated our children as their own family members. Building Blocks offer a range of extra curriculum activities with external vendors which we otherwise would have paid for ourselves which the children enjoyed. Overall we are very happy with the quality of their care!

Both of my children go to Building Blocks Nursery and they receive excellent care. The staff are very caring and kind and they love children so much. Food and activities are great. It's sad that it's time to graduate and they are leaving the setting very soon. But memories are created and will be cherished for a long period of time.
Building Blocks Nursery has cared for our daughter for the past four years and we have never been less than impressed with their team's dedication, knowledge and passion for providing top-class childcare and development opportunities. The key carers, in particular, are all highly qualified and have...
We could not be happier with choosing Building Blocks, it's an outstanding nursery and we would recommend it to anyone.

Our son has had an incredible experience, he runs in happily, the staff not only provide comfort and reassurance but also entertainment. Often tricky to get him to leave nursery at the end of the day as he has been having so much fun. The staff provide imaginative activities, e.g. building and painting cardboard castles/rocket ships or searching for insects outside with magnifying glasses. Various outings (supermarket, carol singing, library, park, riding the tram/bus) and events (tea parties, dress ups days). Activities from external providers - football, yoga, music, forest school. The setting itself is so stimulating and is changed around often. The food is also varied and healthy. We have always felt he has been looked after so well and he will certainly miss building blocks, which have provided him with so many happy and fun memories. We cannot thank you enough for helping raise our little boy from a lockdown baby into a confident and happy pre-schooler!
Our daughter started attending from the baby room until nursery school. During this time, she has grown so much and absorbed all the positive things she learned there. She formed very strong bonds with the staff at the nursery who have been very kind and supportive. Not everything has been perfect...
Our daughter started attending from the baby room until nursery school. During this time, she has grown so much and absorbed all the positive things she learned there. She formed very strong bonds with the staff at the nursery who have been very kind and supportive. Not everything has been perfect however we have seen the nursery making efforts to adapt and improve. The most important thing is that our child loved her time there!

I’ve been very happy with the care our little boy receives at this nursery. The staff are very attentive and supportive. It is them that make all the difference. From the carers to accounts and management. I always feel I talk to people that care and understand. There is a good level of communication between us. I also like the out of the setting activities that they do, and I hope to see more of them. The building itself is a bit dated but they are renovating it at the moment. The garden area is not great but the people working there are so caring that I wouldn’t like to change just because of that. All in all very happy with our choice and I would recommend.
Building Blocks is an exceptional setting. My son has been with them in both their Baby and Toddler rooms and has been wonderfully cared for. Staff are nurturing, friendly, fun and creative and my son is very happy here. Could not recommend this setting more, excellent.

My name is Alex and I have been working at Building Blocks since March 2011. I first joined as a Nursery Assistant at our Teddington site and have worked my way up through to Early Years Manager. I have obtained and achieved my NVQ Level 2 and 3 in Childcare during this time and enjoy putting theory into practice. I have also achieved my Level 3 in Management and hope to extend this to a level 5. During my time here at Building Blocks I have worked in every room and been the room leader of all rooms except Top Toddlers in our Teddington site. Throughout my time at our Teddington site I am proud of being part of the team achieving the NDNA ‘Nursery of the Year’ for the South of England in 2017.I moved over to be the Wimbledon Kids Club Early Years Manager at the end of August 2018 after being the Deputy Early Years Manager of Kids Club in Teddington for 1 year. During my time as Early Years Manager of our Wimbledon Kids Club I am proud of achieving an Outstanding OFSTED inspection. I have now been managing our Dundonald Road site since May 2020. I have a real passion for childcare and providing excellent childcare to all children.

My name is Lotte and I have been with Building Blocks since it opened its doors on the 3rd September 2001. Having just completed my BA (Hons) in Early Childhood Studies I was eager to put all my knowledge into practice. I started as a Nursery Assistant and worked my way up to become Nursery Manager in January 2004 of our new Kingston Rd site. In April 2008 I was promoted to Senior Manager for the company with the owners temporary move to America. This evolved into my current role of Operations Director as I took on more and more responsibility within the company.I have overall responsibility for the quality, care and education within the nurseries and Kids Clubs as well as all customer service aspects within the company. I work closely alongside Clare Ford, our Operations Manager, who directly oversees the Early Years Managers and ensures that day to day operations run smoothly and continue to meet the high standards that we strive for in our pursuit for excellence. It is extremely important to me that I continue to maintain a presence across both our Wimbledon and Teddington sites through formal observations and informal check-ins with the staff. Being able to see first-hand the level at which we are delivering our curriculum and offering my support and guidance when needed forms a crucial element of our reflective practice.
