I am so grateful for everyone who cared for our 2 year old twins. They were kind, sweet, patient and did everything possible to make sure our daughter and son were not only learning but were being entertained throughout the day while being under their care. We received pictures and updates via their app. It was wonderful to see updates of our twins being potty trained -both when they were successful or had a failed attempt. Our two year old son and daughter were not speaking however, once they were enrolled in the learning experience within weeks they were saying hi, bye, help etc. It was great to see how quickly they were learning as well as trying new things/activities. We will forever have a special place in our hearts for the staff at the learning experience! Wish we would have enrolled them sooner! ♥️
