Braxton is my great grandson and I've gone with my daughter to pick him up and everytime we walk into the center everyone is happy, smiling and so good with all the kids. I would highly recommend enrolling your child here. Rhe faculty is clean, organized with great teachers.

Our son started Pre-K at TLE August of 2016, this was our first ever experience with school so we were nervous going in. Now it is June 2017 and my son is getting ready to graduate in just a few days and i must say i am very pleased with all that he accomplished at this center, he is leaving this school feeling very proud and ready for Kindergarten all beacuse of their awesome teaching and curriculum . The staff here really helped my son feel comfortable, especially his teacher Mrs. Alissar. She is the best, she made a great impact on me and my child. If i could give her five precious golden stars to take home i would, she is so patient and loving. She takes care of my kid as if he was her own, my son is already crying because doesnt want to leave his teacher. If i could recommend Mrs. Alissar to everyone i would, she is absolutely amazing.

We love The Learning Experience-Oakleaf! Everyone knows our son and makes sure he is getting the best education possible! We love the consistent communication across all levels and the focus on what is best for kids! As teachers, the curriculum is spot on and will well prepare our little guy for elementary school!

Ethan Dill

When we started looking for our son a place to go during the day we wanted it to be fun but educational and not just a place where he was just being watched. After only being at TLE Oakleaf for a week, Ethan was coming home singing songs he had learned and we could just see the joy in his face. He has learned so much in the short amount of time that he has been there. TLE Oakleaf is really a family. All the staff are wonderful and the teachers are outstanding. They all know my son's name and engage him whenever they see him. Thanks TLE Oakleaf!!

We had to switch our son's daycare when I switched jobs. We were a little worried about his transition but the center made the process smooth. My son loves all the teachers who stop and talk to him in the hallway as we travel to and from his classroom. Everyone is extremely personable and he is learning so much!!!

My son and I absolutely love this place and it's staff. Everyone is so nice, friendly and have such patience. We have been enrolled for about two months now and I couldn't have picked a better place. He is learning so much and is very comfortable here. I am not nervous leaving him here, which is such a relief for me.

Rileigh

My daughter started TLE Oakleaf when they opened. At the time she was 2.5 years old. After having to pull her from her last center at a moments notice, I was anxious about a new center. I toured 2 other TLEs in Jacksonville prior to it opening as curriculum was important but the safety and care of my child was most important. Since the day she has started the teachers and Maribel have been amazing. Rileigh loves her teachers and has grown so much. When there was an issue that involved my daughter Maribel was swift in her actions and notifying me. During the incident she truly showed how much she cares about each student in her center. Now my son has been there since July and he loves going! He loves his teachers and Ms. Amanda. I'm not the easiest parent but Maribel has always handled each request or concern with a smile.

My daughter was enrolled in her previous preschool from infancy until the age of four. I was somewhat reluctant to transition her to a different preschool. While I felt comfortable with the care she had received from her previous preschool, I was not certain that she would be prepared for kindergarten. Her previous preschool did not provide regular feedback in reference to her academic strengths and weaknesses during her enrollment in VPK. TLE provided weekly progress reports which kept me abreast of my daughter's academic progress. My daughter's academic progress was also validated by her increased vocabulary she exhibited in conversations. Overall, I now feel that the curriculum at TLE has prepared my daughter for kindergarten.

The Learning Experience has been a blessing in the life of my grandson and granddaughter. They are both very precocious and often need extra attention to guide their curiosity in adaptive directions. As such, it was imperative that their parents find a center that was willing and able to take time for this. After trying out a couple of other places in the area, my daughter is happy to say that they have found a placement that is a good fit. The teachers have proven that they are dedicated to their jobs and to the families they serve. They have been more than willing to adapt to the needs of my grandchildren and ensure that the education they receive is challenging enough to prevent boredom, and targeted enough to draw on their innate strengths. I have noticed a difference in their interactions since being at TLE and have also seen an increase in their love for learning. My grandson in particular used to dislike school. He would often get in trouble from being bored and finding unproductive ways to stay “engaged”. He now enjoys school and looks forward to learning with his teachers and friends!

I love how each time I bring my baby, Jacob to The Learning Experience each morning the care givers are so excited to see him. They show a lot of love to him and to my older son, Andrew. We are very pleased with the care given there.

My grandchildren have been attending TLE in Oakleaf since it opened this past summer. It is a great environment- safe, clean, and enriching. Although it has only been a short while, our family’s experience has been great. My grandkids are always smiling when they tell me about their day!

Laura AUSTIN

Andrew & Jacob Austin

We are impressed with how involved the staff at TLE Oakleaf are with the children. Our school aged child has activities to do in the afternoon, and our infant is kept busy during the day. We are excited about the new programs such as Yoga that they are introducing.

Amiyah and Raya Carr

I am the grandfather of Amiyah Carr and Raya care. When I was recently up in Jacksonville I got to go past the daycare where Amiyah and Raya are every single day. I couldn't if been more amazing with how nice of building that are in. Nothing like a daycare I would of imagined. I recently read a flyer about how they do different programs for the children and teach then sign language. My granddaughter Amiyah is 10 months and walking from learning so much at the daycare.

Linda BRUCE

Amiyah Carr and Raya Carr

I am the grandmother of Raya and Amiyah Carr. I know that my daughter Autumn had a hard time trying to find the perfect daycare for her two daughters. After she toured TLE she called me and was excited to have finally found the perfect daycare. I live a few hours away from Jacksonville but I know that my grand daughter is getting the best care possible just by my daughters voice when I talk to her

Steve ANKNEY

Amiyah Carr and Raya Carr

I am the grandpa of both Amiyah and Raya Carr. My daughter was a first time mother with Amiyah with raya being her step daughter. Autumn had a very hard time putting Amiyah in daycare and going back to work. I could tell when I got the phone call after she toured TLE that they had begun to make it way easier on her! Amiyah has been in the infant program since she was 6 months and now at 10 months she is already walking! I only see my grand daughters every now and then since I love out of town but I can tell she is learning so much being at the TOE daycare!! I highly recommend so any parent who is scared to leave there child with someone foreign to them

My niece and nephew attend preschool here and love it. They are always very excited to share their "school work" with me and to "teach" me things like Sign Language, Spanish and yoga! It is a joy to see them blossoming here and to know that they are truly having fun while learning.

I am very happy that we found this place. Our kids love it and are excited to go in the mornings. Their teachers greet them with big smiles and I truly feel that they have the best interest of every child at heart. The administrative staff has been responsive to any questions or concerns we have had thus far and encourage parent involvement.

We were looking all around for a good daycare and finally found TLE. My daughter absolutely loves all of the teachers there and they have helped us so much in getting our daughter on a schedule. Thank you TLE

Having worked in various early childhood education settings and personally witnessed the growth and learning of many children, I fully appreciate the importance of a positive learning experience. Needless to say, I was saddened by the fact that my toddler did not enjoy preschool. Getting him out the door every morning was a challenge. We tried changing schools, but it didn’t help. This year, when TLE opened in Oakleaf, I jumped on the opportunity to learn more about the center. I was thrilled by what I saw and heard during my tour. The staff assured me that they would do everything they could to try and give our child the most positive experience he has had thus far and teach him that learning is fun! I took our son to “check out the new school” and he loved it! He was excited to see Make Believe Boulevard and try something new. He adored Bubbles. I signed the papers right away and am very happy that I did. The transition was rough at first, but as promised, the staff was committed to doing everything they could. They were in constant communication with me on his progress and worked as a team to resolve any issues that came up. The result has been amazing. Our child now loves going to school! There are no tantrums in the morning. He has made many friends and the negative effects of his previous experiences are slowly fading. When I dropped him off today, he hugged his teachers. He was happy. And he was beaming when I picked him up. To my husband and I, that is priceless. Thank you to the staff and teachers at Oakleaf TLE for touching our family in a way that cannot be thanked enough. We appreciate all that you guys do for our little learners!!

We moved into the area about 5 months ago and enrolled our children at the center, since they walked in the first day everyone was so nice and caring. Theteachers made the transition for my kids so easy and I have never seen my kids so excited to go to school each morning. Thank you to all of the amazing staff for taking the time to care for my kids the way I would.

This school has really brought my son out of his shell and taught him so much. Before we came here he was shy and wouldn't leave our sides now he is more social and loves going to school. Great teachers and friendly staff. Great Learning methods!

The Learning Experience has mad such an improvement in my son. He is learning so much and has become so much more social. He comes home singing learning songs and sounding out new letter sounds everyday and even sign language.I feel like we made the best choice by sending him to The Learning Experience. The teachers and staff are pleasant and great with the kids and the environment is clean and secure.

I have to say that this center exceeds our expectations. They have gone above and beyond to ensure the best education curriculums are provided to our children. I have seen dramatic improvements in both of my daughters academic levels, speech, behavior, and intellectual thought process. The staff starting with the professors and the administrative staff goes above and beyond to ensure the best possible experience for the child as we'll the parents concerns. I highly recommend this academic institution to all. Sincerely, The Green family

This school has exceeded my expectations. My little girl is learning more than just the alphabet and her numbers. Her manners and attitude has improved even more than I could imagine. The staff knows every child's name and the parent. I feel comfortable in the fact that she will be happy and safe here.

We absolutely love TLE! My son started pre-school here this year and everyday he comes home sharing what he is learning. I feel completely confident that after going here he will be more than prepared for kindergarden next year.The staff is wonderful and we feel very comfortable with our son going here! - Tabetha Strickland

My son watched the center here in Oakleaf be built. We would drive by the location everyday on his way to his Nanny's house! Once I made the decision to enroll him I shared the news that he would one day attend the school for VPK once he turned the big 4. From then on the count down started. After the first day, he fell in love with the school and his teachers. Its a great feeling of security and thankfulness when your child is excited to attend school and has developed loving relationships with his teachers and classmates. Ms Kim, Ms Amanda, and Ms Kia thank you for all that you do!

It's always a uneasy feeling when you know it's that time to look for a day care for your little one. From the moment my husband toured the facility he told me this is where our daughter is going, whatever it takes. It was the best decision we could have made. Our daughter loves going to school, everyone is friendly and they teach them so much. I have a good feeling knowing she will be safe and taken care of while I'm at work

Noreen GILDERSLEEVE

The staff and teachers are so nice here. I have seen many positive changes in my child from manners to education. This school makes me feel that my child is safe and in good hands. I also love the fact that the lady at the desk knows every single child's name. I can tell that these individuals here really do care for the children.

I have been extremely impressed and pleased with TLE Oakleaf. My 14 week old daughter has been attending TLE since she was 8 weeks old. I am extremely pleased with the care that she is provided with. The teachers give the babies the time and attention that they need, and engage the babies in activities that contribute to their development. My daughter is always happy and smiling when she is both dropped off and picked up which is a tell tale sign that she is receiving great care. The administration of TLE is always accessible and willing to answer any questions that I have. They are extremely friendly and know each child in the facility by name. My experience here has been wonderful, and I am thankful that TLE takes such great care of my daughter.

My daughter has attended TLE since she was eight weeks old because I had to return to work. I have been extremely pleased with her care, as well as the administration at TLE. Each day that I pick her up she is smiling happy and has completed at least one activity whether it is an art project, story time, stroller rides, or practicing sign language. Because I am a first time mom I was initially cautious about the idea of my daughter attending daycare, but the staff of TLE made my transition back to work seamless. I called numerous times the first week and I was always greeted warmly and informed about how she was doing. I have nothing but great things to say about TLE and I am thankful that I found a facility that properly cares for my daughter while I am at work. The administration is extremely accessible, and the director of TLE is always present during drop offs and pick ups to greet parents and address any concerns. I visited several daycare facilities in the Oakleaf area before making a decision, and I would strongly recommend TLE.

Autumn ANKNEY

My daughter who is now 9 months old recently started going to TLE in September of 2014 and we have only began to love it even more! They do so much with kids throughout the day even as infants! Stroller ride, painting, sign language are some just to name a few. Since we have been going to TLE they have pushed her to do things that our family wasn't. Such as holding her on bottle, learning to pick up snacks to eat, and also going almost all day without her pacifier!!! Just them taking that extra time to do some of these things with her made me realize how great of a daycare they are! I deffanitly reccommend it to all parents that want to watch there child grow and develope more each day!

My experience with TLE Oakleaf has been nothing but amazing!! We enrolled our son August of this year for VPK after a extensive search online and through the area from word of mouth. From the time that we entered TLE Oakleaf we were greeted warmly and more importantly our children were included in the interaction. The Director, Mirabel from the start was/has been great and always upbeat. She took us through the school and showed us my sons classroom. We happen to also meet his teacher Mrs. Kim, which at the time had another parent that was overjoyed that she was at this location since she had been searching for her to teach her child. Since then nothing has changed. Going to TLE everyday is something my son looks forward to. Anytime we are at the school they recognize and acknowledge all the children by name, whether its at the front desk checking in, or leaving for the day,which I know makes them feel important. I am always impressed with how much detail and care his teachers invest in not just my child but all the children they come across. My 2 yr old truly believes he is part of the class. Every week there is a progress chart and a overview of what they did, and what they are learning from week to week. I enjoy the teachers taking time to inform me or my wife of praise/recognition just to make encouragement that more easy to share with our son. This being our first experience with VPK or daycare has left me relieved and happy that TLE was who we chose. The facility is clean and well kept, the safety for the children come first and they check and double check everything. The biggest and the most important thing I can say is they make you feel and treat you like family. With people like Director Mirabel, Mrs. Kim, Ms Amanda and all the TLE staff we feel lucky to have found them. This is definitely a top notch childcare/child enrichment facility.
