Hackensack Preschool & Daycare Hackensack, NJ

My son has been going to this daycare for a few months now, and I love it, he loves it. He’s become more social, he has friends, his English has improved significantly. When I pick him up, he doesn’t want to go home. The teachers and staff and super friendly and I feel safe leaving my son with everyone here.

I would like to express how wonderful the learning experience has been for all my children. From my eldest child to my middle child, who graduated in June and is currently attending summer camp before starting kindergarten, and my youngest, whom I just enrolled in July, the journey has been remarkable. From the very first day, we felt welcomed and reassured by the caring and professional staff. The teachers, including Miss Jeane, Venessa, Shania, Shea, and many others, along with administrators like Miss. Monica, have created a loving and nurturing environment where every child is treated with kindness, respect, and patience. It has been incredible to watch my children grow emotionally, socially, and academically, thanks to the thoughtful and creative curriculum the school provides. What stands out most to me is the attention given to each child’s individual needs and development. My children have gained confidence, learned to express themselves better, and developed a true love for learning—all while having fun and making friends. The communication between teachers is also excellent. We are always kept informed and involved, which is especially important given our busy lives; we truly feel like partners in our children’s early education. I highly recommend this learning experience to any parent looking for a safe, engaging, and supportive and clean environment for their child. We couldn’t have asked for a better start to our children’s educational journey.

TLE is truly an outstanding school! My daughter has been a part of the TLE community for 2 years and the positive influence of the teachers is evident everyday. My daughter eagerly shares stories about her teachers and love creating drawings for them. I know she will deeply miss the TLE family when she moves on. I wholeheartedly recommend TLE to any parent considering a school for their child.

Feels Like Family – A Place Where Our Kids Thrive! We absolutely love TLE! The staff is incredibly friendly and always there to help. Our 8-year-old started going when he was 3, and our 7-year-old started at 2. They both had such a great experience and loved their teachers. They stopped attending when they moved on to pre-K and kindergarten. Now, six years later, we’re back with our 2-year-old daughter—and it feels like coming home. The warm, welcoming environment that made us choose TLE the first time is still there. Our daughter is always excited to go to school, and we can see how much she’s learning and growing. She feels loved and comfortable, and that means the world to us. If our daughter is happy, we’re happy too. We truly have only good things to say about TLE!

As a first-time mom, choosing the right daycare for my son was one of the hardest and most emotional decisions I’ve had to make. I visited so many different centers, asked countless questions, and did my best to educate myself on what to look for in a safe, nurturing, and educational environment. After a long search, I finally landed at The Learning Experience in Hackensack, and I couldn’t be happier that I did. From the very beginning, what set this center apart was the level of information, care, and transparency I received especially from Ms. Monica and Ms. Emily. They ensured I was fully informed and constantly updated about everything happening in my son’s day. That kind of communication gave me peace of mind. My son started here at just 9 months old and is now 14 months, and the growth I’ve seen in him has been incredible. His vocabulary is expanding, he’s identifying body parts, naming items, and becoming more social and independent. I truly believe this is a result of the amazing environment and dedicated staff at TLE. A huge thank you to Ms. Rebecca, Ms. Lorena, Ms. Karol, and all the other wonderful teachers and helpers who have poured their love, patience, and knowledge into my son’s development. Every morning, we’re welcomed with warmth, and the daily photo and activity updates brighten my day and reassure me that my child is not only being cared for but is also learning and thriving. If you’re a parent especially a new one looking for a place where your child will be safe, loved, and supported, I highly recommend The Learning Experience in Hackensack. They’ve made all the difference for our family.

The entire TLE Hackensack staff is so loving, supportive, and attentive. I had so much anxiety returning back to work full time and putting my son in daycare. We’ve been a part of TLE Hackensack family for the past two years and I absolutely love it here

I cannot express enough how grateful I am for this center. Ms. Ana, Ms. Maria, and Ms. Carolina—have been nothing short of amazing. The classroom is always clean, organized, and well-kept, creating a safe and inviting environment for all the children. Overall TLE has been a fantastic place. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found such an exceptional daycare that I can trust. Highly recommend!

Our first son attended TLE at Hackensack and we loved it! He was also very well prepared academically for pre-k/kindergarten. We now have our second son at TLE and couldn’t be happier. Staff is friendly, attentive, fun, and caring. Highly recommend!

My daughter started at TLE in July and I am so relieved. She's 16 months and had been home with me the entire time so the transition was nerve-wrecking. My 4 year old daughter attended another daycare when she was her age and I had a terrible experience. There was no stability with constant changes of teachers and staff so my 4 year old never got the chance to connect with anyone. My 16 month old is having such a different experience. She is so happy at TLE. She wakes up in a great mood and during drop offs she runs to her teachers without looking back! That speaks volumes! Everyone is super friendly and attentive. My baby is also learning so much and already so independent. I'm definitely pleased and looking forward to keeping her here until she's ready for kindergarten :).

My kids have been attending The Learning Experience in Hackensack, NJ, for over 2 years, and my wife and I are very happy and satisfied with the day care. Teachers are great, staff and directors are very friendly and responsible. We appreciate the service and would highly recommend this center. Thank you!

I have been sending my 20 month old child to TLE Hackensack for last 2 months now, and I cannot express how satisfied we as parents are with their services. While leaving a child in daycare every parent will have their anxiety about how the child would adjust adapt with the new environment, will the place be clean and safe for my child and various other thoughts. But I have to say that TLE Hackensack has impressed us from the very start of the facility cleanliness and safety measures they take for the child and the people in the facility. The second aspect which always a concern for parents is the people that is the staff and teachers how would they be with the child. I have to say I am so happy and impressed with the way the staffs in the front desk to the teachers in the classroom are friendly, approachable and great in communicating each and every minutest information about my son which has happened in during the day and it is done every single day. It really makes you feel satisfied and at peace that your child is in the safe hands. As a first-time mom, it was important for me to stay updated on how my child has been doing throughout the day, and TLE Hackensack has exceeded my expectations in this aspect. The daily feedback and update about my son which we get from his teachers through the app as well as when I meet them during the pick up and drop gives me peace of mind. Another aspect is the wide range of activities they offer to keep the children engaged and learning. I see alot of changes in my son and we as parents are really happy and satisfed. I must give a special mention to Ms. Yessica and her team of teachers, toddler teachers at TLE. She has been very patient, calm with my son and changed his behavior just a span of 10 days. I am grateful to her guidance and dedication to my child's development. I really recommend TLE Hackensack to any parent in the area seeking a great daycare. They have made a significant positive impact on my child's life. Thank you Team TLE Hackensack.

My son started here at 6 months and my anxiety leaving him in the care of others was high! The staff here is amazing. I truly feel that he is well taken care of. TLE communicates with us several times a day through an app. I have found myself feeling very attached to the teachers in his rooms. I also love all of the themes that they have each month. My son really loves it here and they take such great care of him. I highly recommend TLE to anyone looking for daycare.

I have been sending my child to TLE Hackensack for about 8 months now, and I cannot express enough how satisfied I am with their services. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the cleanliness of the facility. It was evident that they prioritize maintaining a clean and safe environment for the children. One of the aspects that stood out to me was the wide range of activities they offer to keep the children engaged and learning. It's great to see a daycare that not only focuses on childcare but also on providing educational opportunities. The people there are truly amazing. Every staff member I encountered was friendly, approachable, and they are great at communicating any little thing that would happen with my son which is awesome. I really like how, whenever they do call you, they first mention that your child is safe if it’s nothing really serious, because they know it’s always stressful to receive a call from your child’s daycare. As a first-time mom, it was important for me to stay updated on how my child was doing throughout the day, and TLE exceeded my expectations in this aspect. Their daily feedback and the teachers’ stories about my son's day gave me peace of mind while I was at work. I must give a special mention to Ms. Lorena, one of the infants’ teachers at TLE. She went above and beyond to provide me with valuable advice and support. She took the time to give me tips and was incredibly patient with my son. I am grateful for her guidance and dedication to my child's development. Thanks to all the caring and supportive teachers at TLE, my child has been in track with his milestones, from walking to communicating, I believe their guidance greatly contributed to his rapid growth and development. I am confident that TLE has played a crucial role in shaping my child's early years. In addition to all these wonderful experiences, they provided me with the peace of mind I needed during a challenging time in my life. As my husband was sick, I had to detach myself from my baby earlier than I would have liked in order to work and support our family. Thanks to TLE I was able to focus on providing for my family knowing that my child was in capable and caring hands. I really recommend TLE Hackensack to any parent in the area seeking a great daycare. They not only prioritize cleanliness, security and offer engaging activities, but they also have an incredible team of teachers who genuinely care for your child as if they were their own. They have made a significant positive impact on my child's life and my journey as a mother.

Staff is friendly, attentive and professional. They really care about our babies. Facility is clean and they keep us updated on everything going on with our little one. Good communication.

My daughter has been attending The Learning Experience in Hackensack, NJ, for over 2 years, and overall, my husband and I are very pleased with her development. Our daughter is thriving, and we know that TLE played a big role in this. We appreciate the staff, teachers and directors and would highly recommend this center. Thank you!

My son was enrolled in another local toddler school before this and had a very negative experience. He became scared to attend school and his personality started to change. After keeping him home for two months, we were nervous to send him to another school, but thank goodness we did! Since attending TLE Hackensack, I’ve not only seen my son’s personality come back, but I’ve seen him develop a deeper love for learning. He is excited to go to school and talks about his teachers often. There is no greater feeling as a parent than knowing your child is in a safe a nurturing environment!

I am so blessed to find this daycare for my baby at this tender age. I can go to work knowing my baby is safe.

Our experience at The Learning Experience in Hackensack has been amazing!!! Our daughter has been attending for a year now and has come such a long way. The management and staff are absolutely incredible. During these uncertain times with Covid-19, we are very pleased with the safety measurements that the center is taking to ensure the health and safety of all the children and staff. It makes leaving our daughter during these scary times much easier. We are beyond happy that our daughter is apart of this program and we are looking forward to another wonderful school year.

Back in early 2013 we began visiting possible daycare/preschool options in Hackensack because that is where I work. Our son was 2 and he was being cared for by my mom & my in-laws up until then but we knew it was time he experienced socialization and early learning. We also knew we didn't just want a "daycare", we wanted him to have a good opportunity to learn & develop. We visited 3 other places including one that is connected to my place of business & it is an early learning center BUT.. once we visited TLE Hackensack, they just blew the others away!! Our son was invited to spend time in the Twaddler class which would be his, while we toured the whole school. He was right at home from that moment. He actually chose to stay there while we toured. The whole school was beautiful & impressive, the environment obviously a very creative space, and the staff was amazing with all of us. We knew instantly that this was where he'd enroll. When it was time to leave we went to get him from the class and he was already participating in their activities! He was excited to go to his new school & has been that way every day since. TLE Hackensack does so many amazing things with our little ones and we love that they instill philanthropy and involve them in many philanthropic events. Our son loves to know he is helping others. He has learned so much and at such an impressive rate but also the children are encouraged & they do learn at their own pace but because the staff and curriculum are so enriching the kids learn very enthusiastically. The entire staff are beyond amazing & it shows through the happiness and all the activities the kids experience & are involved in. Our son has made so many friends & he loves all his teachers and still likes to visit his old classrooms to say hi to his former teachers. The staff is very loving and kind and they all know every child's name including management & the owner Mr Mike who is there every day & always interacts with the kids when he sees them. Our son is so happy to be there & we look forward to his baby sister's experiences once she enrolls too. Thank you TLE Hackensack for all the nurturing love, education & experiences you give our son! We'll truly miss TLE once both our kids are off to Kindergarten. We wish this school went through middle school :) A very happy mommy, Debbie O.

I couldn't be more pleased with the kids' second family at TLE! I was one of the first parents to enroll my first child at TLE in Hackensack and have since seen my son grow into a smart, compassionate, inquisitive and social 4 year-old. When learning about philanthropy, my son came home asking if we could donate some of his toys he no longer plays with to children that do not have any toys. He further explained that that would be "charity." Imagine my surprise when I heard his age-appropriate understanding of this word and this important concept! I was thrilled that my then 3 year-old was learning such advanced concept and vocabulary at school! I was so happy with the nurturing, clean and academic program at TLE that I didn't hesitate for a moment to enroll my daughter as well. She just turned two and not only is she incredibly social but I have also witnessed her vocabulary explode Since her enrollment just 6 months ago. She counts to 15 in English, to 10 in Spanish and can sing her entire ABC song. The teachers, staff and management are truly top notch and continue to provide my kids with an enormous advantage academically, socially, and emotionally. I have referred three of my closest friends to also enroll their children and they are just as happy as my children and I are with the level of care and attention at TLE.
