Glen Allen Parent Reviews & Testimonials

After we moved to Richmond from NY searching for child care and learning center was a daunting task in a city where we didn't know anyone. After searching and visiting several centers we choose TLE and we could not be happier! We send our two children (5 & 3) to TLE full time for almost 2 years now. The clean well kept facility and the compassionate caring teachers are only few of the great things that describe TLE. We have been very impressed with the well thought out lesson plan that have clear developmentally appropriate goals thought by teachers who devote their lives for early childhood education. Despite the uncertainty during COVID-19, TLE's commitment to keep our children safe with a clear, detailed health and safety policy made the decision to send our children back to TLE easy. The relevant timely communication with parents also gave us a peace of mind in this very difficult times. We are actually very impressed with how quickly the center adopted to current health threats and was able to continue to carry out excellent learning curriculum with out any interruption. We see this daily with the growth of our children. We highly recommend TLE to any one looking for a top notch childcare along with excellent early childhood education. You will not be disappointed.

Our daughter started attending TLE in Glen Allen from the age of 6 months. As new parents, we were nervous about handing our child over to a daycare, but former nurse, Ms. Annette, eased our fears. She took our hands, and made the transition for us very easy. Our daughter is now almost 5 years old and has loved her time at TLE. She cannot stop talking about her teachers, friends, and activities she does at TLE. When Sunday night rolls around, she says she is looking forward to Monday (what kid says that?). COVID scared us all, but the protocols taken by TLE have been exemplary. Studies indicated that kids are less affected by COVID, on top of that, the safety procedures put in place at TLE made her return much easier. She has been back at TLE for several months now, and there have been no outbreaks or even a single case. TLE took the necessary precautions, and have made us comfortable. We encourage others to send their kids to TLE!

COVID-19 has certainly made us all face difficult situations, requiring changes and making difficult decisions to adapt. Sending our toddler back to daycare during COVID-19 was certainly an epic milestone for our family. My husband and I are first-time parents, but also very busy professionals managing full time demanding intellectual jobs. No need to say how freaked out we generally are when it comes to the safety of our one and only child. We somehow managed working and caring for our child for a few months at the peak of pandemic, but with the start of Richmond's Phase I we evaluated the cons and pros of returning to TLE at Glen Allen for the childcare support. We made this decision based on: 1. Recognizing our child's need to interact with other children 2. Our child's need to learn from professional, experienced and most importantly caring child educators 3. Aiming for quality time together as a family as a result of having boundaries for work and family. TLE @ Glen Allen made the decision easy for us by having a very clear, detailed and transparent safety and health policies to manage the complicated pandemic needs. Overall, since we have returned we do feel safe knowing the policies are fully implemented and like some institutions are not just advertised for liability purposes. TLE staff are incredibly kind and supportive of us and our childcare needs and they take care of our children like a close family support system. They've been self-less acknowledging the team effort to keep everyone healthy and happy. As a mother and educator, I give my highest possible approval for this center and hope other parents can experience the joy and peace of mind that has come back to our family with the support of TLE staff. THANK YOU TLE@Glen Allen!!
