Amazing place with lots of events and activities and teachers are all awesome and friendly nature.
We enrolled our daughter at TLE after having a negative experience at another preschool, and the difference has been tremendous. TLE has been a wonderful fit for our family. The staff has been kind, professional, and supportive from the start. Most importantly, our daughter feels comfortable, cared for, and happy there. As parents, that peace of mind means everything. We have seen her grow in confidence, learning, and social skills since joining. TLE has created a warm, positive, and structured environment where children can thrive. We are very thankful for the teachers and staff and highly recommend TLE to any parent looking for a daycare/preschool that truly cares.
TLE Hillsborough has been a wonderful place for our child. The teachers are caring, the environment is safe and welcoming, and we’ve seen great growth in our child’s learning and confidence. We’re very happy with our experience and highly recommend TLE to other parents!
Hillsborough Learning Experience is the best daycare that I could have found for my son. Everyone here from the administration, to the teachers, to the assistants were super nice and helpful! All the teachers are extremely caring and attentive and have an extraordinary understanding of the needs of the children. The school is beautiful and the families feel very cozy and welcoming. Everyone knows our son by name and he loves being here every day! I would truly recommend Hillsborough Learning Experience!

Artesha Dumas I cannot say enough great things about The Learning Experience! As a parent, finding a safe, nurturing, and educational environment for my toddler was a top priority, and this school has exceeded all of my expectations.
We have been with The Learning Experience - Heathrow for over SIX years (wow!) across both of our daughters and have been absolutely thrilled with the professionalism, service, care and love shown to both of our daughters. This place is an extension of our family. In our experience the turn-over has been extremely low - our two year-old daughter has had almost all of the same teachers that our six year-old daughter had when she was going through the same infant, toddler, twaddler and prepper classes. These teachers love these children, their passion for their job is apparent. I don't know how they do it, I wouldn't have the patience! The center director, Sheelah, has created a fantastic environment and workplace for these teachers and an amazing school for these sweet little learners. Her dedication to her job, professionalism and compassion for children and the parents/families is amazing. I have and will continue to recommend TLE Heathrow to anyone I know (or don't know!) looking for a loving environment for their child where they can thrive and learn. Picking a daycare is really hard and it's a tough decision, TLE has been such a great choice for our family and I'm so thankful they were recommended to us almost 7 years ago. Our children haven't just been "watched" during the hours they have spent at TLE, they have been loved, cared for, made long-lasting friendships and learned. I'm constantly amazed at what our two year-old comes home and shares. TLE has allowed both my husband and I to grow and thrive in our professional careers all while knowing our daughters are receiving the absolute best care available. Thank you TLE!

Safety & Peace of Mind
Hillsborough families consistently report feeling secure about the supervision, entry protocols, and overall safety standards at our Center.
As an educator and mom, it was really hard to find a place that I felt had a student centered curriculum and focused on the safety and the well being of their students. The Learning Experience is a school embodies that type of environment. The teachers are passionate and the communication is what you would expect and appreciate from a school. I feel safe dropping off my kids and know they are being cared for while at the school. The administrative team and the other teachers know my kids’ names. That’s a really good feeling to know they are acknowledged by so many.
I was very anxious to enroll my daughter (2y) at TLE in the beginning plainly because of some negative reviews online. Recent ownership change and recent positive reviews encouraged me to give a try and I am delighted I made that decision. The new ownership just completely transformed/overhauled this place. It looks awesome and very professionally maintained, clean and spacious. I witnessed a huge effort put forward by the owner and staff to make it one the best childcare facility in the town. I enrolled my daughter at TLE about 3 months back. My daughter adjusted quickly and now happily waves goodbye to me in the morning. That is a clear indication that she stays happy and enjoys her days. I am thankful to the owner Jyoti and the staff Leon, Doreen, Priya, Ameera and all other teachers and staff for all their efforts and hard work. I would highly recommend TLE to parents.
Thank you Leon, Doreen and the staff. I'm sorry things didn't work out financially for us. I'm at a loss for my little girl. She loved going there. I'm sure she would have thrived.
At the Learning Experience in Hillsborough, NJ, teachers and staff care about your child learning creatively from yoga, art, math, phonics, science, foreign language, sign language, and so much more- all while having fun!
My children use to come to Hillsborough TLE and we loved it. They learned so much and get excited anytime we go back to visit and see their teachers. We love getting invited to all their events still!
My wife and I are excited to share the news that we have found a daycare center that doesn't let the children run amuck with no supervision in the classrooms. The Hillsborough TLE has an amazing staff that is interactive with the children, encourages them to discover and learn while assisting them in guided learning activities. The amount of support that our children receive is outstanding. The teachers learn very quickly to determine if the child is having an "off" day and they don't wash their hands of the child and say, "oh, tomorrow we'll try again." Instead, they explain to the child that it is okay for them to be upset and discuss how to make the day a better one. Support, nurturing, and encouragement are but a few of the qualities we have seen at this center.
Nervous, shy child was made to feel welcome and supported to explore his new environment all under the watchful eyes of his teacher, Miss Kayla. (Preschool 1) My son, Vinny, is timid in new situations and groups of more than 5 people...imagine how scared we all were that he was going to grab hold of me and scream, "No, Mommy I don't want to go!" This was NOT the case. The Hillsborough TLE was so understanding of how my son felt in this new situation and went above and beyond to assist all of us in this transition. We are appreciative of all that was done for us. Thank you, Hillsborough.

Our parents regularly comment on the exceptional hygiene standards and welcoming atmosphere of our Hillsborough classrooms.
My husband and I couldn't be happier with the teachers at the Hillsborough TLE. Our son, Frankie started attending the center this year--it was his first organized classroom setting so we were not sure how he would react. The teacher, Miss Kayla, in Preschool 1 was compassionate, welcoming, and nurturing to our little one and he became one of the class immediately. The entire staff is friendly and becomes quickly part of your extended family. I have visited other centers and TLE Hillsborough knocks them out of the running with their enrichment programs and most of all where I trust my children to attend and be safe while learning and discovering.
My husband and I started looking at daycare's in the area before our daughter was born. There were several things that stood out to us about TLE. One of the first things we noticed was how happy all the children seemed. We watched as many of the kids arrived in the morning, and most of them were running to the door in anticipation of the day to come. We took that as a very good sign! My daughter started going to TLE at just 3 ½ months old. The transition was seamless, and the teachers gave her lots of love and attention. We really liked that there were 2 different infant rooms- infants change so quickly over the first year of their life, so it was nice to know that our daughter was in a room with babies so close in age. Now at just over a year old, my daughter is in infant B. We love her teachers, and they love her. She is walking all over the place, and again, the fact that she is in a room with other walkers and crawlers means that she is free to explore and play. When our daughter arrives in the morning, the staff and teachers say good morning to her by name. It makes us feel good that she is in a place where everyone knows her. She is happy to get to playing and waves hello to all the friends she has made.
The Learning Experience in Hillsborough is a great preschool program. My son who just came from India has been learning many new words and he fits right in. I thought it would be a hard transition for him and it was not at all. The teachers in his classroom, Miss Kayla made him feel very comfortable and help him engage with his classmates. When I ask my son what does he like most about school he tells me the ball pit and slide. The other school we came from lacked the ball pit and curriculum that The Learning Experience has. I am glad my wife and I chose this school because it is the best place for our son to go.
My grandson has been coming to TLE for over 4 years now. Sometimes I pick him up and drop him off at the school and the teachers and management are always so friendly and nice. The staff really enjoy taking care of him. He is a very happy 5 year old. I always look forward to the special events I get to come to to see him with his class such as Grandparent's Day and Graduation. I am glad my daughter picked this school for him.
I have really enjoyed having my daughter here at TLE. This is a wonderful preschool. My daughter has learned Mandarin and Spanish in the past 2 years. Her favorite activity is playing in the ball pit in MBB and also playing on the playground. She loves pajama day and when they get to bring in items in her learning bag on Fridays! The staff are fantastic and I love the attention they give to her. I am so happy to have found such an exceptional school for her.
My daughter has been at TLE of Hillsborough since she was 2 months old. She is now a "twaddler" and my son began in their infant room this August at 3 months old. I couldn't be happier with Christine and all of the teachers at TLE! They always reach out and go above and beyond for my family, which has been a life saver with our hectic life! My daughter has learned so much from being in such a fantastic school and my son adjusted perfectly. The teachers are always willing to reach out and brighten my day, even by sending me pictures of my children playing while I'm at work. As an educator and someone who comes from the early childhood industry, I know how challenging working at a child care center can be. Everyone TLE is fantastic and they clearly love what they do!
I love the learning experience! ! My son has gone here for four years now and he loves it!! Every day he comes home learning something new!!!

Learning, Development, & Child Growth
Some of the most meaningful feedback we receive is about the tangible growth and academic progress parents see in their children after enrolling at our Center.

Both my daughters started TLE of Hillsborough early in 2014. My youngest daughter just had turned 2 at the time and was hardly speaking. Within a month of being at TLE she was putting words together and even singing the tunes of songs. Now she is a little chatter box and I can say for sure the staff at TLE had a part in her development. Christine, the director, has been wonderful with any questions or needs that I've had. Dropping my daughter off at TLE is the easiest part of my day.
We have been part of the TLE family for over 7 years. How have you made an impact on my family? Simply said, TLE is a part of my family. When you leave your child with another person to care for them, you want to have people who love, nurture and educate your child just like you would yourself. The staff at the Hillsborough TLE ARE AMAZING! They support you and your child, are caring, loving, intelligent, creative and dedicated. Many of the staff have become family to us: we laugh, cry and celebrate together! The love they provide is genuine. TLE has an amazing curriculum, and as a teacher I truly appreciate such a program of advanced educational opportunities for my children. Thank you TLE in Hillsborough- we truly love and appreciate all you have done for our family!
My daughter loves the Hillsborough TLE....the teachers are wonderful and work with each child wonderfully. Everyone is so helpful and caring we just love being a part of the TLE family.
The TLE in Hillsborough has done an amazing job going above and beyond making my son feel comfortable when he came to the center for his first experience in a school environment. Miss Kayla (PS1) is patient, kind, encouraging, and supportive to all the children in her class. Vinny asks me each morning, "Mommy, is today a day I go see Miss Kayla and my friends?" Which melts my heart and tells me that TLE is doing something right.
My son has had a fantastic time coming to the TLE in Hillsborough he is in Miss Kayla's class, PS1, and enjoys the fun learning activities that she leads him in on a daily basis. As a parent I am impressed by the amount of academics that takes place at TLE when compared to the other daycare options in the area.
The staff at TLE Hillsborough are so experienced, friendly and just all around great people! My 8 month old son has tons of fun learning new ways to communicate and play with Miss Theresa & Miss Shannon in the afternoon. I always feel like they take care of him like he's their own & that's always a comforting feeling when I come to pick him up.
My son has been here since he was an infant. From Miss Teresa all the way up to Miss Kristy he has grown and learned soo much the past 5 years. The teachers at the school go that extra step to take care of my son. They call me right away if he isn't feeling well or just to let me know he missed me. The love and dedication that they show not only towards my son but towards all the children is the reason why I chose T.L.E. This school was more than a school for him, it was his 2nd home.

Kindergarten Readiness and School Preparation
One of the most common reasons families choose The Learning Experience Hillsborough is our whole-child approach to kindergarten readiness.
TLE was the first center I looked at when enrolling my son. I did not look elsewhere because they offered the best curriculum and enrichment programs for my son. My son enjoys coming to school and has made many friends! His teachers are always available when I have concerns or questions. They always keep me updated on his progress. It is a great feeling knowing I can go to work and leave my son at a place I feel secure and comfortable at.
My whole plan for my son and I was to be a stay-at-home moms till he was 3 years old. I am so glad that when he was 14 months I decided to start looking for daycares and even more glad I was referred to TLE by my neighbor. My son has grown so much with the different classes he has been apart of so far. He just started preschool 1 and within the first 2 weeks he would ask me when we got home if he could practice writing his letters and numbers. It gives you a warm feeling to see that the teachers are making learning so much fun that my son wants to keep going at home. That is a true testament as to how great the staff is. The staff and teachers have made TLE feel like an extended part of our family!
As a director in Early Childhood Development for 20 plus years, the center that I bring my granddaughter to has to be a very special place. Hillsborough TLE is that place. The Director Christine is always warm and inviting. My granddaughter is so excited to walk into school each day. Her teachers have always been so welcoming and happy to see her. I know I am leaving her in good hands. Thank you Christine and staff for all your hard work. TLE in Hillsborough keep up the good work.
I am so excited to be apart of the Hillsborough TLE family. From the entrance of the building I was so ready to see more.I love the curriculum and how it's building my son's language skills. My son started out shy and didn't talk at all. He had only a few recognizable words. The phonics program open him up to different sounds. I can't say the same now my 2 year has become very verbal. He also has become more social, and to cope in different environment. Besides all the fun learning it is also comforting to know that I have left my son in the hands of loving caregivers. Can't wait to see my son bright future as we grow in the TLE family
My experience with TLE has been very good so far. The choice was easy to make, despite my concern on switching Vivian from one Daycare to TLE. Choosing was a bit nerve wracking at 1st But choice was made & working with Christine Lewis Made it that much easier. She also being a mother knows the fears in choosing a facility that a parent knows their child will thrive & do well. Her mother & I are happy. Thank you for taking good care of of baby
From minute one, working with Christine Lewis was excellent. I was dealing with taking my daughter from one daycare to Another & it was a difficult time for me. I could NOT be happier with my choice. Christine made me feel At total ease & made me feel that This was most surely a huge relief & glad I went forward & knowing Her as a person who is at the forefront of Ur school, TLE should be grateful that you have such terrific representation the minute you walk Into school. So happy I went ahead with TLE, Christine had a tremendous effect on my final decision So she deserves many accolades due to this & thank you for having Her there. As someone who manages a medical practice, I expect more than the typical arrangement & am very happy thanks again - Janan Starrick

Choosing was a bit nerve wracking at 1st But choice was made & working with Christine Lewis Made it that much easier. She also being a mother knows the fears in choosing a facility that a parent knows their child will thrive & do well. Her mother & I are happy. Thank you for taking good care of of baby

From minute one, working with Christine Lewis was excellent. I was dealing with taking my daughter from one daycare to Another & it was a difficult time for me. I could NOT be happier with my choice. Christine made me feel At total ease & made me feel that This was most surely a huge relief & glad I went forward & knowing Her as a person who is at the forefront of Ur school, TLE should be grateful that you have such terrific representation the minute you walk Into school. So happy I went ahead with TLE, Christine had a tremendous effect on my final decision So she deserves many accolades due to this & thank you for having Her there. As someone who manages a medical practice, I expect more than the typical arrangement & am very happy thanks again - Janan Starrick

Going back to work and leaving my child in the care of someone else was not an easy task. After viewing multiple schools in our area, my husband and i decided to enroll our daughter at The Learning Experience. We felt there was nowhere else that provided the curriculum and extra activities we witnessed at this center. It was a fun and welcoming environment from the first time we walked into the building just for a tour. Our daughter has been attending the school for two years and was part of the preschool 1 and now preschool 3 programs. She has learned so much and is eager to start reading very soon. The phonics program has taught her all letters, letter sounds and even sight words! It's one of her favorite parts of the day (besides playing in Make Believe Boulevard)! It's a joy knowing she loves going to school and has such an exciting time while there. It gives our family much comfort knowing she is in great hands and being loved like one of the family while we are at work all day.
My son started at The Learning Experience when he was one and is now five. I love all the teachers there, they are all so nice and welcoming. The director is also always very friendly and helpful as eell. The center is always clean and very inviting, I wouldnt send my son anywhere else.
Coming from another center I was nervous about having my 5, 3, and 15 month old join a new school with new teachers. I have to say that everyone starting from Christine the Director have been a great help. The staff are very friendly and take an interest in their lives. I am informed daily of their day and when I call during the day they are always able to answer all of my questions. Without a doubt I know that I have made the best decision to put my kids here while I'm at work. This place is a wonderful environment for children, it makes me want to be a kid again. ~Anastasia TLE Hillsborough
My son loves coming to school everyday!!! He loves the indoor playroom with the ball pit and his teachers!!! He has learned so much because of the in depth curriculum. I appreciate everything the director and teachers have done for us for the past 4 years. He is reading already and hasn't even started Kindergarten yet! Thanks Tle!!!
My son has learned soo much from TLE. Not only with the curriculum but with the manners and values the teachers have taught him. The teachers and management are always available and always have a smile on their face which makes it such a warm and cozy school. I really love the work and family discount as well.
My son is learning to read and is excited about it. He is happy going to school each day.
