Building Blocks Learning Center 100 Westbrook Street, South Portland, ME 04106

"I worked here for about two months and did not feel I was given the respect I deserved. I was in a car accident and hospitalized. They fired me because of this. In a way I was relieved they fired me because it was always stressful going to work due to the unfriendly and hypocritical staff. I feel bad for the children there, I felt I was the only teacher that would actually play with the children."

"The best place in South Portland/Scarborough for day care, preschool, and school aged kids. Don't let the looks fool you - it may be in the basement of a church but your kids will be loved, cared for, and given tons of chances to learn and play. They have a large yard and it's perfect for kids to run around, dig, ride bikes, and a million other things. It feels like the back yard at a large family gathering, with kid of all ages playing. If you want your kids to be in brand new centers with (tiny) new playgrounds, this isn't your place. We did that and found that the revolving door of care givers and the inflexibility of the payment options made us (and our kids) unhappy. But if you want your kids to come home happy, healthy, and well (if a little dirty!), call Building Blocks!"
