Our Caring & Experienced Staff

Teacher quality remains the top reason why families choose The Learning Experience Bolingbrook.

Nakia

TLE made our family's transition so much easier. Our 4-year-old attended a half-day preschool program in the Plainfield School District, and the staff at TLE made sure he got safely to and from the school bus each day. The transition between preschool and daycare was always seamless, allowing him to enjoy the best of both environments. While at TLE, he was surrounded by a loving, nurturing staff and a well-rounded curriculum that encouraged learning, creativity, and social development. A special thank you to Ms. Adriana and Ms. Tawanda for the incredible love, patience, and care they showed our child throughout the year. They took the time to truly know him, understand his personality, celebrate his accomplishments, and encourage him every step of the way. It was clear they cared about him not just as a student, but as a little person with his own unique strengths, and that meant so much to me. Our family also experienced an unexpected health challenge this year. I shared what was going on with his teachers and simply asked that they keep a little extra eye on my little guy and make sure he felt a little extra loved during that time. Without hesitation, they did exactly that. Their kindness, compassion, and genuine care gave me so much comfort during a season when I needed it most. As he gets ready to begin kindergarten, our hearts are full of gratitude. Thank you to the entire TLE team for providing such a nurturing environment and for helping prepare him for this next chapter.

Adriana

My son started TLE May of 2025 and it’s been by far the best thing that has happened to him. He began with Ms. Joy in Toddlers and learned so much with her. He started talking by the time he left her room and had learned more than what he knew going in. In Twaddlers with Ms. Sam & Ms. Ty is where he truly blossomed. His knowledge grew more than I could have imagined. He was speaking so much more and coming home and adding a new word to his vocabulary and forming sentences. These ladies really cared about curriculum and did their best on different ways their little minds can learn. Pictures were being sent home on what was done and I loved the engagement overall with them. Now being in Preppers with Ms. Melany and Ms. Ariana is where his character is being built. These ladies have so much patience not only with my child but with all the children. I know they do their best to give these students structure, teach them right from wrong, teaching them how to share and be good friends to one another. I know these ladies have their hands full all the time but they get the work done. I do want to give a special shout out to Ms. Melany for helping me potty train my son and not giving up on him! She truly was a lifesaver during that phase of my sons life. Thank you to all the ladies mentioned because they have been such a big impact in my sons learning process.

After a bad experience at my son’s previous daycare, I was extremely nervous about trusting another one. From the very beginning, Miss Lacey listened to every concern I had over the phone and in person, never made me feel like I was overreacting, and truly put my mind at ease. Had it not been for that understanding phone conversation I wouldn’t have even toured. However after meeting Miss Lacey seeing and hearing her genuineness she’s truly the reason we chose this school. Over the last couple of months, we’ve watched my little absolutely flourish. Miss Melissa and Miss Bernice have been amazing with him, and it’s so clear they genuinely care. He loves going to school and talks about them all the time. Mr. Jimmy, the Center Director, is also kind, caring, and always welcoming. He is the resident Blippi for the kids! What I appreciate most is that this team listens. I’ve had a few specific requests for my little , and instead of brushing them off, they took the time to understand and support them. As a parent, that means everything. Every single person here has been kind, professional, and caring. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better place for my little, and I highly recommend this school to any family looking for a safe, loving environment for their child.

Perla

Love the center, very happy staff and children! Great curriculum for infants-preschool!

Monique

Great experience here! The teachers and Ms Lacey the Director were super accommodating for my family's needs. They went above and beyond! So sad we had to leave due to finding a closer location to home.

Binay

Bolingbrook TLE has been absolutely wonderful for our daughter. Our daughter has been to the school since she was 2 years old, and we have seen her transform into a confident kid due to all the nurture, care and curriculum at the academy. Thanks to all the teachers, the support staff, and Miss Melanie and Miss Adwoa Appiah for building such a strong foundation for our daughter. We have had a wonderful experience with this daycare, and much of that is thanks to Lacey's outstanding leadership. She is caring, professional, and truly dedicated to creating a safe, welcoming, and nurturing environment for every child. She communicates well with families and goes above and beyond to ensure the children receive the best care and early learning experience. It's clear she genuinely loves what she does, and it shows in the positive atmosphere throughout the daycare. We highly recommend this daycare to any family looking for a place where their child will be well cared for and supported.

Brieanna

Our daughter started at TLE Bolingbrook in the fall and we quickly saw how great of an environment it is for her. The whole staff is attentive and knowledgeable, and it is clear that they create a positive and engaging learning environment for their kiddos. As an early childhood education professional myself I am extremely critical of childcare centers, especially for my own child, and I have nothing but positive things to say about the teachers and environment at TLE. Our child has blossomed since starting there, and I know it is thanks to her teachers and the caring and educational environment they provide daily.

I highly recommend The Learning Experience if you’re looking for a fun, safe, and educational program for your child.

Phinky

I feel so blessed to have found The Learning Experience for my son. From the very beginning, the teachers welcomed him with so much love and patience, and that gave me such peace of mind as a parent. The staff treat every child like their own, and it truly shows. They celebrate the little milestones, encourage learning through play, and comfort the kids when they need extra care. My son has grown so much—not just academically, but also in his confidence and friendships. My son recently lost his dad and our world was turned upside down. During such a heartbreaking time, Ms. Melany, Ms. Lacey, Ms. Marquise and the rest of the staff became a source of comfort, stability, and safety. Drop offs have been extremely challenging, but they support me by gently talking to him, distracting him, playing with me and supporting his needs. We are especially grateful for Ms. Melany as she has empathized with us and has supported us 120%, going above and beyond her normal work tasks to care for my baby. This means the world to me and I cannot thank her and the whole team enough. They don’t just care for him—they love him through his grief. The patience, gentle reassurance, and extra hugs they give my son help him cope, learn and enjoy going to daycare again. The Learning Experience has become like family to us, and I am forever grateful for the love and kindness they pour into my child each day.

Melany

My children have been attending TLE for over 2 years and I am very pleased with the care they have received from their teachers thus far. They are very knowledgeable, and you can tell that they truly care about the kids. I feel very comfortable leaving them knowing they will be well taken care of.

Ever since we came back to this daycare, I have been thrilled. Everyone has been amazing so far. Teachers and staff communicate and send daily updates. Warm friendly welcoming faces greet you in the morning. I am able to communicate with my sons teachers effectively. Thank you Ms. Melissa, Ms. Emily, Ms. M for providing such an amazing experience and making the transition for my son easy. Big thank you to Ms. Lacey the director for going above and beyond. GLAD TO BE BACK!

John

When evaluating which daycare to send our child to, The Learning Experience had the cleanest facility, a documented curriculum, and the friendliest staff. The staff truly care for my child and in turn my child loves them too. My child was nervous at first, but very quickly the nerves settled and he became excited to go. They have high standards for the children and it shows up at home. An absolutely great daycare!

Sherry

If you are looking for a place where your child will be safe, engaged, and genuinely cared for, I cannot recommend this program enough. I used it for drop in care for my 9 month old son while traveling to visit family, and even during a short term stay, the experience far exceeded typical daycare expectations. From the very first day, he was happy to go and clearly felt at ease with the caregivers. What truly sets this care center apart is the level of thoughtful engagement they provide. Each visit included circle time with stories and songs, outdoor play, and age appropriate enrichment activities that kept him stimulated and smiling. I especially appreciated the detailed updates and photos throughout the day. They gave me real peace of mind and a meaningful glimpse into his experience. Every pickup was a joy! He was always content, actively playing, or happily interacting with staff. It was clear he felt safe and cared for, and that meant everything to me as a mom. Whether you are visiting the area or looking for care options, this place is a gem. The level of attention, professionalism, and warmth they provide is truly exceptional.

Jasmine

My toddler and infant are new to the TLE family, and the transition to a new daycare has been a wonderful experience so far! Ms. M and Ms. T greet us each day with a warm smile and are always willing to answer any questions I have. Ms. Lacey is consistently prompt, professional, and courteous, making communication smooth and reassuring. Ms. Melany brings such energy and enthusiasm to her work, thoughtfully engaging the children in activities that support their social and problem-solving skills. I truly appreciate the workbooks that come home at the end of each unit. They are a great reflection of the motor and academic skills my toddler is developing and being introduced to. I also cannot express enough how much the staff adores my infant. He is thriving and reaching so many early developmental milestones, and I wholeheartedly believe it is thanks to the love and care Ms. Brittni, Ms. Paola, and Ms. Kelly give him every day. I feel so confident and grateful knowing he’s in such nurturing hands!

Anne

It has been 2 years since we started with TLE and I can tell that my baby is growing up smart and independent! I love the teachers and the facility.

Terrian

Ms. Inicity & Ms. Cary are such affable people and I couldn’t ask for anyone better to prep my little infant for the little world ahead of her! When she doesn’t want to leave mommy they are so comforting to my bundle of joy.

Imari

Erika

My 4 months old baby loves going to TLE, she has made some friends and enjoys all the activities that the teachers do with them like yoga, social and emotional, entertaining, creative arts, snesory and motor activities and much more. I noticed a big difference since the 1st day that she went. She is in a better mood in the afternoons, after I pick her up. Her teachers Miss Paola and Miss Kelly are so sweet with them, also Miss Monica, Miss Brittany and Miss Carmen. They are always aware of their progress, development and care, I really like them so much. The staff is also super friendly and one thing that likes me so much is that they know the name of all the kids ???? This is a really nice place!.. the building looks clean and super colorful ? suitable for kids I love that!... my baby has been there for a month so far but I just can say thank you Miss Paola and Miss Kelly for giving me peace of mind when I'm working, because I know that you take very good care of my baby??.

Theresa

My daughter has been going to the learning experience for 2 months now an I can honestly say this daycare is amazing. From the moment I went to the learning experience for the tour Ms. Lacey was very kind and welcoming and embraced me and daughter with open arms. I didn't feel pressured at all. When I was inquiring about the daycare at the beginning. Ms. Lacy was very kind and very understanding because I was very nervous about putting my daughter in daycare because she had never been in a daycare or school environment. Mrs. Lacy allowed me to do a play date so I can see how my baby would adjust in the environment and my baby girl fit in perfect as if she’s been going to daycare for years. The learning experience is an amazing environment from their learning curriculum to care they provide for the kids and the family friendly events that they do monthly is always nice. As a nervous mom I would call twice a day to check on my daughter and they would always update me on my daughter whenever I had questions about anything. They would also upload photos which is a plus so I can see what my daughter is doing throughout the day. I’m very please and satisfied with the learning experience all of the staff is friendly and respectful and is amazing. Just to name a few. Ms. Tiffany, Ms.Ariana, Ms. Tawania, Ms. M, Ms. Molly, lunch staff and their are others who names I don’t know but everyone I came in contact with at the day care has been wonderful and has never made me feel uncomfortable. Ms. Tawania the assistant director is also such a sweet lady an amazing too she is very helpful and very kind. I can honestly say I would recommend any parent to put their child in the Learning experience if you want your child in a great structured school environment that is actually being educated and not just babysat. The Learning experience is definitely my recommendation.

Shalaka

I started sending my daughter to TLE when she was 10 months. This place great combination of preschool and homely care. Teachers’ skills: Teachers are skilled, energetic, passionate about their job. They are professional at the same time very accommodating when it comes to making adjustments for a working couple and their needs. Ms Julie is my daughter’s THE most fav. She shares such a great bond with my daughter that I get to know about my daughter’s new developments, habits from her before me figuring them out myself. I am so disappointed that my daughter is graduating to toddler class now she no longer will be seeing Ms Julie :( The learning: This school taught my daughter many little things like table manners, words, art, singing (yes! She sings). By the time we planned on teaching her something she had already learned it. Curriculum: Management has v thoughtfully designed lessons, programs that explores hidden skills of a child at a young age. There’s never a dull moment for my child. A big shout out to the Director and the management team. Staff and environment: most of all I feel safe to send my daughter here. Staff is friendly and involved. Twana is such a sweet lady, always in cheerful mood. Another fav of my daughter. Festive vibes: TLE is always into celebrating festivals, cultures, having gatherings for families(although we never get to attend any due to hectic scheds :( Overall Team TLE, Bolingbrook receives 10/10!

Teacher Melany and Teacher Mack are both amazing with our son. Teacher Mack is so patient and helpful during drop offs, which can be really hard for our kiddo. She makes the morning transition so much easier for him and for us. Teacher Melany gives great support throughout the whole day. She really cares about him and knows exactly how to help when he's having a tough time. You can tell they both love their job and want all their kids to do well. Our son has gotten so much better since being in their class. We're really thankful for everything they do. They don't just teach, they really look out for our boy.

Chanelle

My husband and I are SO pleased with our decision to send our daughter to The Learning Experience in Bolingbrook. We both work full time, demanding jobs. After visiting several schools, we are so grateful we went with TLE. To start, the educators and staff are so friendly. This goes beyond a daycare and learning really does take place. Our daughter is 4 months old and experiencing learning at her level. The best part is the peace of mind I get when I open the easy to use app and see pictures and updates on my baby girl. We highly recommend!

I spent a lot of time touring centers before I chose TLE Bolingbrook. Not only was it the most affordable day care I toured, but it has an outstanding team, curriculum and facility. My son not only thrived at TLE Bolingbrook, but I always knew he would be safe and well taken care of. He started in the infant room, then moved to the Toddler room. He would always surprise us with a new word or skill when he came home. He had so much fun at TLE Bolingbrook that he would jump into the staff's arms at drop off. There is no better peace of mind as a parent than knowing your child is safe, having fun and learning. We recently moved away, but I hope to find a center as fantastic as TLE Bolingbrook in our new town.

Ebony

I enrolled my 2 boys at the beginning of January and I have seen such great improvement in their interest to learn. The teachers here are just overall AWESOME! They were recognizing new words, speaking more and knowing certain words in sign language. I was so excited to get them to attend and my feelings have not changed yet! Overall the center is great with great management, awesome teachers and the school is so colorful. They have different characters that have different learning objectives for the curriculum which makes learning so much more fun for the kids. My boys love coming to school in the morning and it's so hard to get them to leave. TLE Bolingbrook has really been the best choice for our family.

Beata

We love the learning experience! Ms. Kim the director takes great pride in the program and care of all the kids! Our daughter is going to be 2 and has been in the center for almost a year! She loves her class and teachers and runs right in!

My daughter has been a student at TLE for almost a year. Since the initial tour my family and I have loved our entire experience. The teachers are caring. The curriculum is awesome. I love app that gives real time updates and photons of my child's activity.

Nadia

I love The Learning Experience in Bolingbrook! All of the staff is involved and clearly loves what they do. My son never wants to leave! He's only been going there for preschool for about 3 1/2 months and he's learned so much already. The facility is clean and safe. The teachers are very interactive, and the students all look engaged and happy to be there. It took me a while to decide when and where to start my son for preschool, and I'm more than happy I decided on TLE Bolingbrook!!Na
