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.
