Welcome to Building Blocks Day School

Three Schools. One Foundation for Learning.

Since 2007, Building Blocks Day School has been dedicated to nurturing curious, confident, and compassionate learners. With two locations in Falls Church and one in Manassas, Virginia, we provide engaging early childhood education and childcare for children from infancy through preschool, helping every child build a strong foundation for lifelong learning.

At Building Blocks, we believe children learn best through hands-on experiences, meaningful relationships, and opportunities to explore the world around them. Our whole-child approach supports physical, social, emotional, cognitive, and self-help development while introducing age-appropriate pre-academic skills that prepare children for future success.

A Unique Learning Experience

We offer enriching programs designed to inspire a love of learning, including:

  • Spanish Immersion & Language Instruction to encourage early language development and cultural awareness

  • Year Round School helps children maintain learning momentum, build consistent routines, and retain important skills while enjoying regular breaks throughout the year

  • Age-Appropriate Pre-Academics to build foundational literacy, math, reasoning, and problem-solving skills

  • Christian Values & Principles incorporated through age-appropriate Bible stories, prayer, kindness, respect, and integrity

  • Movement & Enrichment through P.E., Zumba Kids, ballet, and other engaging activities

  • Nutritious Catered Hot Lunches to support growing bodies and healthy habits

Growing Together Since 2007

Founded by Mabel Espinoza, Building Blocks Day School continues to be guided by her dedication to early childhood education and years of experience in both classroom teaching and school administration. Our commitment remains the same: to create a safe, supportive, and stimulating environment where every child feels valued, develops confidence, and discovers the joy of learning.
