We cannot express how much we adore the TLE team. TLE is amazing! Nice facilities to play, sleep, eat and activities. Also we love their curriculum. the staff are very caring, knowledgeable and genuinely love the kids. we are very impressed with the communication and the updates (including photos and videos) they provided on the kids throughout the day. My son's teachers (Miss Kristen and her assistant) and the whole team have always been so accommodating attentive and welcoming. We would never hesitate to recommend TLE to other patents. Thank You TLE team

Enrolling our girls in The Learning Experience has been the best decision we could have made. Both of our girls are thriving and they are both completely different kids. My oldest is very timid and takes a long time to feel comfortable in new environments (4). I can honestly say I’ve never seen her so excited to wake up in the morning to go to school. She loves her teacher and friends and talks about them nonstop. Before bed each night, she asks to look at the Show and Tell app to show me all of her pictures from the day. My other daughter is much more outgoing and social but also struggles without structure (2). Her teachers do an excellent job challenging her during circle time and keeping her on her toes throughout the day. She is also thriving! I cannot tell you how much the teachers there are helping my kiddos develop the skills they need to succeed when they move on to public school. They are gaining so many social & emotional skills, academic skills, and also learning to be independent. I couldn’t be happier with the education and love my girls are gaining from being a part of the TLE family. I also want to say the ladies in the office are AMAZING. I feel like we are a family and I can call them anytime throughout the day with questions or even for advice. I can’t recommend this school enough.
