My twins have attended 2 different TLE’s since they were 3 months old, with a 1 year break most recently due to the pandemic. They just went back past Monday and TLE Macungie has been exceptional with protocols for cleanliness and health and the boys just walked in and picked up where they left off. The owner has been so amazing in taking all my calls to check in on my guys and they are already learning so much after 2 weeks. I was nervous to send them back but they have done an amazing job.

What I love about this school is you feel that you and your child are wanted, heard, understood. I can not speak more highly of the staff!!!! The curriculum is top notch, where they teach all aspects of learning along with lots of activities to keep your little one busy. The other cool thing about The Learning Experience is they have an indoor play area, so your kiddo is not stuck inside the same classroom all day if it's too cold or rainy. Look no further. Cause you won't find anywhere better.

My little one goes here and he absolutely loves it. They have a newly built facility that has a privacy fence around the exterior play areas, all exterior and another interior door locked via security system, indoor and outdoor play areas, tiny potty and low sinks for my toddler in every room he goes in, they have a up to the minute app with photos they update throughout the day so I can physically see how my little one is doing, they accept CSC, they sanitize everything daily with non-harmful chemicals, all the staff either has extersive experience in childcare or a degree in the childcare field, and they have a sick area if a child becomes sick so as not to infect the other children. They are state regulated and have cameras in every room.
