Building Blocks Daycare is a home based daycare located in Oxon Hill, MD, near the National Harbor. Building Blocks is a warm, home-based program where little ones learn through play, songs, stories, and daily routines—todo en español—supported by responsive, developmentally appropriate teaching.

Why Families Choose Us

• Full Spanish immersion, gentle bilingual support. Children hear and use Spanish throughout the day, with English scaffolds as needed so everyone feels safe and included.

• Developmentally appropriate practice (DAP). Activities and expectations match each child’s stage—never “one size fits all.”

• Small group, big care. Low ratios and predictable routines help children build trust, independence, and joy in learning.

• Play-based, research-informed. We learn through hands-on exploration, music, movement, and rich language—because play is children’s work.

• Family partnership. Daily updates, photos, and practical ideas to keep the learning going at home.

Our Programs

• Infants (2–18 months)
  Responsive caregiving, nurturing routines, tummy time, sensory exploration, simple baby sign, lullabies in Spanish, and plenty of one-on-one talk time to support early attachment and language.
• Toddlers (18–36 months)
  Whole-body play, music & movement, early self-help skills, simple story time in Spanish, beginning social skills (“use your words”), and rich sensory/art invitations, counting and alphabet in spanish.

  Kindergarten-readiness the DAP way: pre-literacy and early math woven into play; science and nature walks; dramatic play; cooperative games; project work that builds focus, problem-solving, and confidence—todo en español.

What Spanish Immersion Looks Like
