Our daughter began her journey at The Learning Experience this past May. Our childcare situation changed abruptly and like many first time parents, we were extremely nervous about changing from a private sitter to a daycare facility. After touring several facilities, we choose TLE. Even though it was a relatively new center, we knew immediately that it would be a great fit for all of us. The teachers, staff, director and owners all made us feel welcome from the moment we met them. Within a week, we started noticing positive changes in our daughter's personality and development. The teachers and staff are all extremely caring and supportive. The daily communication is outstanding and just what we were looking for. We are thrilled with our experience at TLE thus far.
