He's hitting all of his milestones, and I am grateful to the teachers for taking care of my precious boy while I go to work! The director Ms. Renee is always a pleasure to talk to! She always there to listen and address all my concerns. Thank you so much to the Learning Experience team for giving my son Willens an amazing structured, learning experience on a daily basis!

We all want the best education and care for our little ones for a better development and sending my child to TLE was one of the best decisions I could of made. I love that they follow a curriculum and I see the progress in my child's learning abilities. Forever thankful for the teachers, staff and any other members involve with taking care of my daughter for the past year. If you are a mom considering TLE for your child's care and education this is the way to go! Ms. Renee made this process very easy and runs a tight yet loving staff.

Not being around people during the pandemic impacted her so much, so we decided that would be a good idea for her to be around other kids to play, interact and burn some energy. She had a wonderful adjustment and I have to give the staff the credit for it. Renee and the whole team always friendly made it so smooth. My daughter is always happy, and besides this I see a huge improvement on her speech. Love this place and I highly recommend
