TLE St Johns is absolutely amazing. It feels like a family and our infant is thriving in their care! It is always hard to leave your little ones but they have made it the best experience for us. We could not be happier! The teachers and staff make it such a warm inviting place to go and they teach the babies every day, our 6 month old has learned so much! We get updates and pictures throughout the day that give us peace of mind and keep us involved even when we are at work. HIGHLY recommend!

TLE has been my first daycare experience and I couldn't be happier. I toured their facility before they even opened while still pregnant with my first child. She started in July at 4 months old and the transition was seamless. Their app is user-friendly and keeps me up to date on everything throughout the day so I never feel out of the loop or like I'm missing out on anything. The staff is very friendly, accomodating and clearly care about the kids. They are always sending home a sweet keepsake for the parents and are often putting on fun events and theme days to participate in. I'm so grateful that we found them and secured a spot when we did and look forward to watching my baby learn and grow at TLE :)

We have enjoyed our experience at TLE St Johns. We began attending TLE in July 2020, which is a difficult time to start care due to the pandemic. We have been unable to tour the facility and truly meet the teachers, however, the staff have made us feel incredibly comfortable. The facility is beautiful and very clean. All staff that we have met are beyond helpful and friendly. Both children have had nothing but positive things to say about their days when they get home. We are happy with our decision and look forward to what the future holds for our kids at TLE St. Johns!

This is the 3rd TLE I've enrolled my daughter into within the past 26 months and by far the best. She's been at this location as of mid JAN, and within just a month has already excelled socially and academically. She loves to go to school now where as before she would cry when I drop her off, she now waves goodbye and go join her friends. TLE St. Johns is an extremely positive and friendly environment, with a caring and cooperative staff. They are also meticulously clean so it's less likely for the common cold to stick around your child. At the past two other locations my daughter was always sick and experienced several fevers each week. Since enrollment at TLE St. Johns all she has is a slight cough. If you're considering whether this is the best environment for your child, then let me put you at ease...YES! There is lots of space to play and learn, the menu is sufficient; and every day I look forward to whatever new my daughter has learned, for she feels compelled to share.
