I would not leave my dog in the care of Ms. Esther much less my child. This is, without question, one of the worst daycare facilities I have encountered. The staff is unprofessional, discriminatory, and demonstrates a complete lack of concern for the safety and well-being of the children in their care. My child was not treated with basic respect, and when concerns were raised, they were dismissed rather than addressed. The environment is unsanitary, untrustworthy, and entirely irresponsible. It is clear that this facility prioritizes money and government subsidies over providing a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment for children. Additionally, the individuals working as "teachers" are not state certified and are not trained in CPR. Parents are led to believe their children are being cared for by qualified professionals, which is simply not true. This operation appears to be a money driven scheme rather than a legitimate childcare facility that puts children first. I strongly urge parents to think twice before enrolling their children here. They deserve far better care, professionalism, and accountability than what this place offers.

After a long journey of searching for the right daycare we couldn’t be more grateful for Director Ms. Esther’s grace, and commitment to maintain high standards across all aspects in the day care day in and day out. We will begin in Feb. when my son is 1 years old and we couldn’t recommend this center more. The staff is professional, the kids seem happy and the center has three stars which is very difficult to achieve. We have peace of mind knowing our son is in excellent care and look forward to his social and cognitive development at this advanced child’s center.

They have helped me with my girls from when they were very little up until they weren’t able to attend anymore due to age and they truly are amazing. They cared for my children even better than I could have! God bless them all, this facility and I hope Linden does everything they are able to support them so they are able to stay in business at this location. Mrs. Esther is a great person, her family is amazing and the staff is amazing.

This day care is the worst in the entire tristate! They labeled my child with having a problem and ask that we must visit his doctor for evaluation. His doctor said nothing was wrong with him. We took him to a different daycare abd he is doing much better!

Our daughter started attending in January of 2022. Ms. Ines, Ms. Yor Mary, and Ms. Zoila have created a nurturing and caring environment for our daughter. She loves getting dropped off at daycare each morning and gets excited when we pass the building on weekends. The staff at Building Blocks has worked very hard to meet the needs of our daughter and we are very appreciative of their efforts. My wife and I are able to drop our daughter off each morning knowing that she taken care of by people who truly care.
