Building Blocks Education and Care

Building Blocks is a locally owned and operated home-based childcare business.

Ko Tātou Tēnei – This is Us

At Building Blocks we believe success starts in a home environment, and provide a passionate, fun atmosphere filled with aroha to fortify and strengthen our children’s path now and into the future. Children are the heart of everything we do. We surround them with an inclusive, caring early childhood community where they feel welcome and safe to inquire, contribute and thrive. Children set the programme for learning at their own pace and they flourish in an environment that is focussed on their individual strengths, needs and whānau aspirations. We value play as children’s work; in nurturing homes and through our community experiences they are empowered to develop knowledge, skills and attitudes that enable them to become capable lifelong learners.

We value and celebrate respectful relationships and believe that they are the essence of meaningful partnerships where every individual in our community is supported, valued and accepted. We grow and maintain a strong sense of belonging that is built upon respect, laughter and a little bit of magic that is brought by all our people.

Our foundations are built upon Te Whāriki and Te Tiriti o Waitangi; these are fed and nurtured by our people, our places and our robust reflective practices. They are a strong living entity that is always developing so that we can continue to proudly offer quality care and education. We recognise that together we learn, together we teach, and every individual is a leader that enriches our Building Blocks community with their ongoing contribution.

Laugh, Learn, Play today for a stronger tomorrow.

"It takes a village to raise a child" and we believe that children in the comfort and support of their "village" thrive and grow.

Our educators are awesome…. We only contract educators who have the highest of standards and with whom we would feel comfortable to leave our own children. All educators must comply with the Ministry of Education Home-based care regulations.

Our educators care for your children, this gives them one of the most responsible positions in our society today; a responsibility we all take very seriously.
