At Building Blocks Developmental Daycare, we don't just watch children — we design environments where curiosity becomes competence, and every day lays a foundation that lasts a lifetime.
Building Blocks Developmental Daycare has served the Eugene community as a trusted early learning environment for over two decades. We understand that the earliest years are not just a waiting period — they are the critical window where the architecture of a child's future is built.
Our developmental approach means every activity, every interaction, and every moment in our care is intentionally designed to support cognitive, social, emotional, and physical growth. We partner with families who believe that early education is not optional — it is essential.

Individual attention for every child
Full-time and part-time options
Each program is thoughtfully structured to meet children where they are and guide them to where they're going.
Ages 6 weeks – 12 months
Gentle, responsive care tailored to the rapid developmental needs of infants. Our low-ratio environment ensures each infant receives individual attention, nurturing bonding, and sensory-rich exploration.
Ages 1 – 3 years
A dynamic program that embraces the curiosity and energy of toddlers. Through guided play, language development, and social interaction, we support the explosive growth that defines this stage.
Ages 3 – 5 years
A rigorous yet joyful preparation for kindergarten and beyond. Our curriculum builds foundational literacy, numeracy, and social-emotional skills through structured learning and creative exploration.
School-age children
A structured extension of the school day that reinforces learning, encourages homework completion, and provides enrichment activities — all in a safe and supportive setting.
Ages 3 – 12 years
An engaging summer program that keeps learning alive during the break. Outdoor adventures, arts and crafts, science exploration, and social activities keep children growing all summer long.
All ages
Our developmental focus extends to children who benefit from specialized attention. We work closely with families to provide individualized support that honors each child's unique pace and learning style.
We combine evidence-based early childhood education practices with an intuitive understanding of what each child needs. Our approach is not one-size-fits-all — it is responsive, intentional, and rooted in developmental science.
We begin by understanding each child — their strengths, interests, and areas for growth — through careful observation and ongoing assessment.
Every activity is purposefully designed to target key developmental domains: cognitive, language, social-emotional, and physical.
We maintain open, consistent communication with families. You are our most important partner in your child's development.
We track progress, adjust strategies, and celebrate milestones — because development is a journey, not a destination.
Research shows that play is the primary vehicle through which young children acquire the skills they need for lifelong success.
We maintain the highest standards of safety, health, and security so you can have complete confidence in our care.
Controlled access, locked entries, and monitored premises ensure only authorized individuals enter our building.
All educators are certified in CPR and First Aid, with ongoing professional development in early childhood education.
We meet or exceed all state licensing requirements and carry comprehensive liability insurance for your peace of mind.
Daily sanitization, healthy meal preparation, and strict illness policies maintain a hygienic and healthy space for every child.
