We love hearing from our happy parents
Parents are such an important part of The Learning Experience family. We love hearing from them–especially when they share with us the growth and learning they see in their children!
Ms. Becca, Preschool 1 teacher is awesome. She is usually the first person I see in the morning when I drop my daughter off. She is not my daughters teacher, but she is always so positive and reassuring. I have seen her interact with other parents and children and always smiling. My daughter just started TLE and seeing Ms. Becca trying to make her comfortable, trying to get her to talk and giving her hugs just means a lot to me as a parent. It's the little things teachers do that make a difference in our children's lives. Thanks TLE for the great care you provide for our little ones.

I absolutely loved my experience and my sons experience with TLE! Coming from a situation in which he was not secure and there was oversight, it was so nice to see the many security measures they take from the key fob, to the check in process, to the photo policy. Additionally, they send 3-7 pictures a day to let you know what your child is doing. They allow for texting with the school administration to get updates or to provide them with other information. I also appreciate the diversity represented in books, images, and toys. The director has always been amicable, caring, and responsive. I will certainly be sending our son back here! Awesome teachers and staff! Thank you all!!

I love having my children attend TLE Frankfort. The philosophy and curriculum that comes from The Learning Experience is amazing. The wonderful teachers at TLE Frankfort are simply the best! Joe, the owner, does a great job at making sure the school has everything they could need, so the teachers can give their all to the students.

I could not be happier with the center. My child has quite a few food allergies and from the start staff director and all employees have been informed and understand. Every parent worries when dropping their child off and having them cry - is this right? Will they be ok? All those thoughts have been laid to rest with the center staff. They understand the whole child and are there to listen and help the whole family through some separation. The show and tell app is amazing when they upload pictures my child is always smiling and engaged we can’t say more about our love for bubbles and friends.

We attended their Open House last week and it was a lot more than my wife and I expected. The facility is beautiful and I wish I had a place like TLE when I grew up. The entire place is inviting, bright and fun! This is just what my daughter needs, especially after the year that we had during this pandemic. We decided to enroll her after meeting the managers and they were very informational. When speaking with them, it felt more like a conversation instead of them trying to sell me something. The set up is great and the communication is even better. My little girl is happy and so am I!

Characters that bring learning to life
Designed for six stages of early development
Our curriculum is specially designed and created to focus on each of the six early stages of development: Infant, Toddler, Twaddler, Prepper, Preschooler and Kindergartener.


Built with your child’s needs in mind
At each TLE® Center, every detail was picked deliberately — and plays a key part. Together, they inspire a child’s natural curiosity and creativity, and create an overall environment where children feel comfortable, safe and ready to learn.
Committed to innovation in childcare
Since 1980, The Learning Experience® founders the Weissman family have worked to develop and implement childcare and early education programs that are innovative, ground-breaking and built upon three key principles: Learn, Play and Grow.
