My family loves this place! The staff and the programming are amazing, and I can see that everyone pours their heart and soul into the kids. My child has been going to TLE since last year, and we cannot be happier with his development.

We are very thankful for the TLE community!

I have nothing but positive things to say about The Learning Experience in Allen! I have two children that have been attending for about a year now. My prepper has continued to grow in his potty training, and always tells me he went potty on the potty when I pick him up. And my preschooler loves Ms. Feri! She now knows how to write & spell her long first name and she doesn't even start kindergarten for another 9 months! The director, Ms. Leah, truly cares about the children at her school and helps run the place smoothly. Speaking as a fellow educator, what makes this facility stand out from other daycare centers is the STEM curriculum program that incorporates technology with lovable characters, and the love that the teachers exude for the kids. I enjoy checking out the pics of my kids throughout the day on the Bubbles & Friends app as well. I definitely feel like my kids have an upper hand by being here compared to our experience with other daycare facilities. Once again, I highly recommend The Learning Experience - Allen for your child as well!

From day 1 we were impressed with the level of care, safety, communication & so much more. The staff truly cares for the kids & the directors do a great job of getting to know the families. While we certainly knew our daughter was not the only kid there, they always made us feel like she was. I would 100% recommend TLE Allen for childcare needs.

My daughter has been attending this daycare for 2 years now and she is about to graduate, we have felt so happy during Mia's time at TLE Allen, specially, over the past year with Miss Feri, she has thrived. Miss Feri’s dedication, love, and care have extended beyond the curriculum, teaching the children kindness, social skills, and more. These formative years are the foundation of their future, and she has played an integral role in shaping our children. We sincerely hope you recognize her outstanding work as much as we parents do. She is an exceptional teacher, and we look forward to seeing her continue to shape amazing kids for years to come. We are also incredibly thankful that Miss Leah is always on top of everything happening at the school. Knowing that she consistently ensures that everything runs like a well-oiled machine brings us great ease, especially when things don’t go as smoothly as expected. Her commitment to safety is what makes TLE feel secure, and it’s why we wholeheartedly recommend it to every family we know.

My daughter always talks about her love for Ms. Feri. My son is in the twaddler class and gets excited in the morning to go to “school.” Highly recommend TLE.

This has been the absolute best preschool that my son has attended since moving to Texas 4 years ago. Ms. Kinsey and Ms. Leah are very attentive and are always so helpful and informative with any parent questions or concerns. My son has just finished Pre-k with Ms. Feri, and she has been so wonderful with all of the students. She has helped to build a little classroom family and my son loves her and his classmates as if they were family. She has helped my son gain more confidence and become more independent in different activities and social skills. He is also reading and is well prepared for kindergarten. I could go on and on about how wonderful our experience has been with the entire school/staff. I would highly recommend, most definitely a 10/10.

Our daughter has been at TLE for 3 years, starting in preppers and now recently graduated preschool 3. I really can’t say enough good things about the staff here. From Mrs. Leah and Ms. Kinsey making sure everything is running smoothly, keeping parents informed by sending out pictures and notifications throughout the day, welcoming us in every morning with a great attitude. They are amazing. And then onto Ms. Feri, the preschool 3 teacher that has shown so much love and care for all her kids. She puts so much into teaching and helping them grow. She is so genuine in everything she does, making sure the kids are ready for kindergarten. The environment in her room is so welcoming and fun. She really takes time to know each child and find what works best for their needs. To say my daughter has come a long way would be an understatement. Her behavior and communication has improved drastically, she is able to read and write, she is always telling me about the new things she has learned in class and really enjoys going to school. Ms. Feri does such a great job at keeping us in the loop of everything, informing us on how she does everyday. Knowing that our daughter is prepared for kindergarten takes a huge weight off our shoulders. We are so thankful for all the teachers and staff at TLE that have helped our daughter thrive. We will miss everyone so much!
