Brooklyn 5th Avenue Preschool & Daycare Brooklyn, NY

I am so glad I found this place, my daughter LOVES to come in. She is always happy to see the teachers and they always welcome us with such energy and enthusiasm. Shotout to Mrs. Zahra, Mrs. Rachel and Mrs. Krystal, they always look so happy and joyful and most importantly make you feel like family. Don’t know if you guys will see this but, you all are AMAZING!!!

We are so happy with our child’s experience at TLE 5th Avenue, Bay Ridge. Our 2. year-old has grown so much in confidence and skills. A big thank you to Ms. Vivian for being such a kind, patient, and caring teacher—our little one absolutely loves her and looks forward to school every day

The new owners and management really transformed this location for the better! A big turn around from last summer! Very friendly and welcoming staff! Ms. Krystal and Ms. Juliet are always there to address any questions and concerns. I'm confident my son is well cared for and he enjoys the activities that goes on there. Love the updates on the app! Definitely recommend!

It is one of the best successes I have had. From the beginning I was fascinated to see happy children, that was the main reason why I enrolled my two-year-old child in this location. The staff in general are committed to the well-being of children in general. The teachers are loving and are attentive if any child requires extra attention to feel comfortable, especially in the first days. The place is complete, it has an ideal space outside and inside for children to explore, learn, interact and exercise. In searching for my ideal daycare, I visited at least 30 before finding this one, some did not have the ideal lighting, others were just very cute but the children looked bored, others did not have recreation areas. And even though it's not the closest to my home, making that one-hour trip there and one hour back is worth it. Knowing that my son is in a safe place ideal for his development and well-being allows me to focus on my work and carry out my commitments in excellence.

The Learning Experience @ Fort Hamilton has been and continues to be a positive experience for my family and me. First off, there's a high need for DOH-approved sites for little ones up to 24 months. I was so happy to have found a safe and welcoming place that met that standard. In addition, it was essential to find a place that had an actual curriculum for little ones. Personally, daycare/ preschool/ elementary school is NOT glorified childcare. That was an important requirement for my husband and I. When our son started at the site, it was a bit overwhelming for us. This was the first time we left our son with someone not family; therefore, we were overly cautious of everything and everyone. It has been ten months since he started, and he has made significant progress academically and socially. He can now vocalize his wants to his peers and adults. He can identify most letters, numbers up to 10, and colors. They are also working on potty training (thank goodness). Aside from the wonderful work they are doing with him, I am forever grateful for how the staff extended their heartfelt condolences and support when my father passed away. Ms. Joseline, a teacher in the twaddler room, was a shoulder to cry on, and her check-ins never went unnoticed. During my low moments, her positive demeanor was necessary for my little one. The Learning Experience @ Fort Hamilton always looked at us as an extension of their family, and they are an extension of our family. Recently, they have incorporated family engagement programs, family support sessions, and culturally responsive activities. I can share so many positive things about this place. Thank you to the wonderful staff members for all that you do.

My son recently transferred from another daycare and he has adjusted so quickly thanks to the wonderful teachers in his room. I know he is well cared for when I pick up a very happy child after work, who doesn't even rush to leave! I also like that the office and front desk staff are involved and make sure to get to know me and my son as much as possible. While this new site is still getting on its feet and sorting out what they need, the class is run smoothly without any affect to the kids. Any and all questions are answered without hesitation. Thank you everyone to making these first few days a wonderful new experience for our family!

I recently called this location of the learning experience to enroll my infant and I just want to say the director I spoke to was so helpful and amazing. She was very informative and patient with all my questions which I really appreciated being a new mom. I am definitely enrolling with this center.

I cannot say enough good things about TLE - Fort Hamilton. To start with, if you live in Bay Ridge you know how hard it is to find a good day care. Most of them are family owned child care services in private houses. We toured many day cares and finally decided on TLE - Fort Hamilton as it was a brand new facility with amazing staff and teachers. The center director (Shiffy) was very welcoming and answered all our questions with patience. The teachers (Ms. Sabina and Ms. Nay) are wonderful who genuinely care for your kids. A few days in and our son fit right in, he is eating almost everything they have for lunch, socializing with his peers and communicating with his teachers. They also have an app called TLE Parent which is super useful for interacting with teachers and getting daily updates about your child. Let me try to highlight some of the positives of TLE Fort Hamilton that convinced us to enroll our kid in this childcare as compared to others in the area. Hope this helps some of the other parents out there: 1: With over 400 TLE locations all over US, I have not come across a single one which has less than 4 stars on Google Reviews. This shows that they are doing something right. 2: TLE has a set curriculum for every age group which gives your child a structure. Their centers are very colorful and vibrant which stimulates your child's curious minds. Also their characters are fun. My son already identifies elephants as Bubbles which is one of his friends at school. Considering all these factors, we are at peace knowing that our son will easily adjust to a new TLE location if we ever were to move to another city. 3: TLE Fort Hamilton is a brand new facility which means it is super clean and safe for my son. It is spacious with 3 floors and an outside play area. The staff, the teachers (special shout out to Ms. Sabina) and even the owners are wonderful. They truly care. 4: TLE Fort Hamilton has an option for early drop off and late pickup which is great for us. They also provide breakfast and lunch. Most importantly the tuition is very competitive as compared to other day cares in Bay Ridge. Tip: Check to see if your employer is listed as one of the partners in their Work and Family Benefits Program as it gives you 10% off the tuition. They have over 200 companies as their partners. The list is available on their website. 5: TLE Parent app lets you communicate with teachers without actually taking them away from what they are supposed to do, looking after your kids. I know some new parents would be anxious and would want frequent updates about their child. Getting picture updates on this app is very helpful and I enjoy seeing my boy happy and busy with all the activities throughout the day. Hope this review will help some of the parents who are looking for a quality daycare in and around Bay Ridge. I will try to update my review in a year and mention other positives (or negatives if any) about this center.
