My 3 year old daughter loves going to TLE. She’s been going for a couple of months and I can already tell a difference in her speaking. She’s been speaking more complete sentences. She tells me all about her best friends at school. She constantly talks about her teacher Ms. Tori. Ms. Tori is awesome! She always has a smile on her face and you can tell she truly cares for the kids. I would recommend TLE to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy daycare.

We found TLE in January. Our daycare needs changed and we had to find something really quick. Our son did back up care elsewhere a few times and hated it so much he would have night terrors. Coming here they did an orientation to help my 2 1/2 adjust to his new environment and meet his teacher. Now he LOVES his school and everyday tells me about his friends at school and what he did. I’d definitely recommend this place to others!
