Teacher quality remains the top reason why families choose The Learning Experience Grand Rapids.
TLE Cascade has been a wonderful place for my 2, now 3, year old to attend! I was nervous putting her into care so young, but TLE has been wonderful and made my child feel like family! I especially want to shoutout Ms. Kim who has been an awesome teacher and Jessica who made the enrollment process easy! I highly recommend them for daycare/preschool.
I've had the opportunity to watch my niece and nephew grow so much during the year and a half they've attended The Learning Experience - Cascade. It's been incredible to see how much they've learned, how their confidence has grown, and how excited they are to go each day. The owner has clearly put so much care and effort into creating a safe, welcoming, fun, and educational environment for every child. The center is clean, well-organized, and filled with engaging activities that encourage learning, creativity, and confidence. The teachers and staff genuinely care about the children and create a positive atmosphere where kids are excited to learn and parents can feel confident they're in great hands. It's obvious that the team is committed to providing high-quality early childhood education and making every family feel welcome. If you're looking for a preschool or childcare center in Grand Rapids, I highly recommend The Learning Experience - Cascade. It's wonderful to see children flourish in such a caring and enriching environment!
We recently moved here from out of state, and we've had such a wonderful experience with this daycare. Starting somewhere new can be stressful, but the teachers made the transition so easy for both of our kids and our family. They are incredibly caring, welcoming, and genuinely invested in the children. Our kids come home happy every day, excited to tell us about their teachers and the new friends they've already made. It's given us so much peace of mind knowing they're in such a positive, nurturing environment.
Our daughter has been attending The Learning Experience for a year and we all love it! She started when she was 4 months old and has progressed through all 3 infant classrooms and now into toddler, and the teachers in each room have been wonderful. I know they truly care about her and she has developed strong relationships with all of them. There has also been very little teacher turnover in her rooms, so we’ve had a chance to get to know them really well. I was so nervous to send her to daycare when she was a baby but she has honestly thrived from the start. She has developed great social skills, she’s always learning new words and signs, and she’s in a good routine for naps and meals. It gives me so much comfort to know that she is happy there. Jessica also does a great job running the center. Communication is great, things are organized, and from my perspective everything runs smoothly. Highly recommend!
Our son has been attending TLE Cascade for 7 months now and we absolutely love it! He is genuinely happy to be dropped off in the mornings and you can tell he is cared for so well. Leaving your baby in the hands of people you don't know well is scary at first, but we consider his teacher as an extension of our family now. We've recommended this center to several friends and will continue to do so.
We have had a wonderful experience with the daycare, especially the management team. They are professional, attentive, and truly care about the children and families they serve. Communication is always clear and timely, and it’s evident that they work hard to create a safe, nurturing, and well-organized environment. It gives me great peace of mind knowing my son is in such capable and caring hands every day.

We were in a pinch and needed to get our daughter enrolled ASAP, and Jessica went above and beyond to help us out. She made a stressful situation so much easier, and we’re super grateful. Since starting, her teachers, Ms. Kellie and Ms. Olivia, have been awesome. They’re helpful, keep us in the loop, and are great at answering questions.
We’ve had such a great experience at The Learning Experience! The staff is incredibly caring and creates a warm, welcoming environment where our child feels safe and excited to learn. We’ve seen so much growth in both learning and confidence, and the communication from the team is always consistent and reassuring. We’re so grateful to be part of the TLE Cascade family—highly recommend!
We’ve had a truly positive experience at TLE - Cascade. From day one, the team has created an environment that feels safe, structured, and genuinely caring. It’s clear that the staff is intentional about both education and character development. The kids aren’t just supervised, they’re guided. One thing that really stood out to us was how they handled a challenge that came up during our time there. It was addressed quickly, professionally, and with clear communication. Rather than avoiding the situation, the leadership team leaned into it, listened, and worked toward a thoughtful resolution. That level of accountability and responsiveness builds real trust. We’re grateful to be part of a community that values transparency, growth, and the well-being of every child. Thank you to the entire team for the care and effort you put in every day.
Our child has been at TLE Cascade for 2 years, and it’s been an amazing experience from day one. The teachers are kind, attentive, and genuinely excited about helping each child learn and grow. We’ve loved seeing our child develop confidence, curiosity, and independence through the fun and engaging activities at the center. Communication with staff is always clear and helpful, and we feel truly supported as parents. TLE Cascade has become like a second home for our family, and we’re so grateful for the care and dedication of the entire team!
Our child has thrived at The Learning Experience – Cascade. The teachers take the time to understand each child and make learning fun. Every week we see progress in language, independence, and confidence. It’s such a comforting feeling to know he’s loved and supported every day.

Wonderful teachers, clean classrooms, and excellent communication! TLE Cascade has been such a great choice for our family. We can see how much our son is learning every week.
We enjoyed our time here! Our kids loved the teachers and staff and will miss them as we move to our new daycare closer to home and upcoming kindergarten. Great location!
It’s never easy to trust someone else with your children, but this daycare has made it such a smooth and comforting experience for our family. We have a 4-year-old and a 6-month-old enrolled, and both are thriving. Our 4-year-old looks forward to going every single day, which says so much about the care, love, and fun provided here. The staff are warm, attentive, and truly treat each child as their own. Knowing that our kids are safe, happy, and well cared for gives us such peace of mind. We couldn’t be more grateful to have found this place. “Happy” definitely happens here.
It’s no easy task to find the right place to take care of your kiddos and be a core component to your child’s development and care. We love it here, particularly since Jessica has joined as the leader. Highly recommend!
My 2 year old daughter has been attending TLE about 3 days a week for one year now and we love it! She loves socializing with her peers and always comes home saying “I played at school!” She’s been learning so many words, manners and social cues. I’m very impressed!

I don’t even have the words right now to express how much we loved the entire TLE team at Cascade. We enrolled our son at age 4 months (now over 15 months old), and today was his last day since we are moving. Several of his infant classroom teachers have been there since day 1, and it was such a joy to see the skills he was gaining through their encouragement and support, and of course the exposure to other kids. From the first day we walked into the door, we felt at ease. They were able to quickly tell us when he wasn’t acting quite like himself, and learned his cues probably better than we did. We entrusted them 5 days a week with early dropoff, and we were usually one of the later families to pick up. We will miss the entire team! Thank you!
I love the teachers here they are amazing… they are very attentive to the kids and they interact with them a lot….
Picking a daycare is always hard and scary for your little ones! Let’s just say my son started about a month ago and developed so many things as in sitting up grabbing for toys enjoying tummy time more. I’m proud of the amount of time they have put in to help him. While dad and I are in school we get updates 24/7 and pictures which is always comfort! special shoutout to Kellie for being Ezreal favorite teacher!
Ms. Savanna and Mr. Caleb are actual angels! Their presence is like a ray of sunlight on a cloudy day. My precious three-year-old grapples with separation anxiety, but the sight of "Ms. Vanna or Mr. Coney" transforms his worries into pure excitement. With their one-on-one attention, he not only thrives but blossoms with joy at drop-off time.
We love TLE Cascade! My son has been her for a year, and my daughter is in the summer camp for school age kids. They both enjoy the teachers and the activities. The curriculum is engaging without being over the top. They are even flexible to take school age kids on snow days! Ms. Savanna and Mr. Caleb are always super attentive and on top of everything! You can tell they have truly connected with the kiddos, my kids love them! They keep us well updated on everything that happens via the app and in person. Ms. Ikram has set up an amazing summer program that is perfect for older children. They are kept busy and come home excited about the day! I would recommend TLE.
My child looks forward to going to TLE every morning. Thank you Jasmine for sharing the details of the day so I feel informed. She is a pro with the kids and truly cares for them.

One of the most common reasons families choose The Learning Experience Grand Rapids is our whole-child approach to kindergarten readiness.
Your child could not be in better hands or care or learning environment. Mr. Kaleb is my granddaughters favorite. He really connects with her and makes her feel very special. All the staff are amazing!
My son really loves his school. Sometimes even weekend he wants to go … Mr. David does take care and teach English reallt well. Even they learn Spanish and Sign language too!
Great daycare, communicate very well and put kids first.. i feel my baby is among good hands..
We love Ms. Lucy she has always been so caring and loving to Liam even when he moved up to toddlers! and Ms. Sam and Mr.Nathan are doing so good with him now in toddlers , Sam's always on top of it and Nathan does such a good job staying active and playing with the kids. Liam loves all of his teachers!
We have been very pleased with the learning experience so far and our son is a big fan of Mr. Zach who is always extremely positive and hands on with the kids. Miss Cora has been a great helper in the class too. The building is very clean and colorful which our son likes a lot.
We've been there for over a year and while there has been transitions in leadership, we are glad with where things have headed. While all the staff has been great, my son loved having Mandy and Grace as his teachers. He also really enjoys Ikram and she's been so great with our daughter too. Lucy has been so sweet with both of our kids - even though she's primarily a teacher for our daughter, she always takes time to say hi to our son and ask about his day. We are thankful to see Samantha's smiling face at the desk each morning and my son always loves what Bobbi cooks up for him! Overall it's been a good experience

We have been incredibly happy at The Learning Experience. The leadership in place (Heather and Sam) are warm and always there to listen to challenges or help you brainstorm solutions. They work as a great team and are always available. Our daughter is in the infant room and we've been impressed by the warmth of Kirra, Makayla, Jenna, and Amber. These women not only make sure my daughter is safe and well loved, but also have built relationships with me which makes me feel good about dropping her off daily. Kirra came up with my daughter's nickname, Makayla and Jenna helped me get my daughter taking regular naps, and Amber is the first to help with a ponytail or tell me about her day. Joe has also subbed in this room and he has this uncanny ability to make my daughter smile and laugh. A big win at 7 mo! Highly recommend this incredible team!
Ok so - first things first - This place really just gets it. I toured A LOT of daycares & pre-schools, basically all of them in the Forest Hills area. TLE won by a landslide in terms of quality, cleanliness, and friendliness. Samantha & Heather were all of the warm and welcoming vibes from the moment I called to the moment we walked in the door. The curriculum here is everything I was looking for and more. TLE uses an app that keeps me up to date on diaper changes, activities, naps, and best of all PHOTOS 😠of my peanut thriving and living his best life while learning & crafting. *But not creepy live streaming* I was dreading dropping off my toddler, he normally has really bad separation anxiety but the Mr. Zack & Mrs. Amber are amazing at distracting him after I say my goodbyes + I love yous - so that it isn't as tough on him or me. The characters that TLE use are also super adorable. They made it really easy with the app to introduce their educational characters to my toddler prior to dropping him off. So the transition was a little less stressful and new. Overall we couldn't be happier with our experience at TLE and really look forward to seeing our babe grow socially & emotionally.
Everyone at TLE cascade is wonderful! From the moment you walk in you are met with the sweetest leadership team (Heather and Samantha) who greet you and your child happily. The new owners are great too. Every teacher, even ones that aren't directly with our children, knows their names and treats them with so much kindness, love, and attentiveness. Miss Ikram is the sweetest, most hardworking and loving teacher and a personal favorite of both my kids (ages 3 and 5). My five year old also had a shout out for Miss.Bobby and how amazing she is on Fridays and Miss.Mandy (who actually sewed together our 3 year olds ripped bear on her own time). Mr. David is a fabulous teacher and keeps them actively learning and growing. Mr. Caleb and Mr. Steve work extremely hard and care about each and every child. TLE feeds them nutritious meals, keeps them active, always has fun/creative art projects, and most importantly, gives them everything they need to prep them for the next phase of schooling. Thank you TLE cascade!
