From Infant through preschool, we make early education and daycare joyful, engaging and fun so children are happy to learn, play and grow.
Our L.E.A.P.® (Learning Experience Academic Program) Curriculum uses fun, hands-on activities throughout early education to help children develop intellectually, socially and cognitively. Or as we say, to learn, play and grow.
Children love learning from characters—and studies show that it’s highly effective especially in preschool and early education. TLE® has a cast of unique, beloved characters, each one teaching children a new value or activity.

Since we enrolled our grandson in Lakewood we have noticed a tremendous growth in his learning and social skills. We highly recommend Lakewood Ranch. The teacher's are wonderful and the Director Staci is always willing to answer any questions we may have.

We were very happy with my son's previous preschool, except for its location. I decided to tour TLE because it is down the street from us, with no real intention to switch. I was highly impressed with the facility and staff, so we made the switch after Summer break. We could not be happier. The... Read more
