TLE Naperville is amazing! Management, staff and facility! We are very happy and comfortable trusting them with our little one. We were very worried about Sarah’s transition as this was her first day care experience, but that was as smooth as can be. Sarah is so attached to the day care, she even wants to go on the weekends. She literally makes me drive her there on the weekend, to see for herself that it’s closed 🙂

The Learning Experience at Naper-Plainfield has been an amazing experience for us thus far. The staff here are extremely caring, supportive, patient and helpful and we cannot be more grateful for them. Our son has always been shy and reserved around others but is now so active and talkative! He has been learning so much through the activities provided by TLE. Our little boy is also a very picky eater and I've never seen him eat so much of a healthy variety and enjoy them. It's been such a joy to see him after "school" and talk to him about his day. We can't wait to enroll our 7 year old through their summer program! We definitely look forward to having our son make many more memories through TLE. Thank you all so so much!

We send our two kids full-time to TLE and couldn't be happier. Our youngest had a hard transition from our previous care and the teacher in his room took extra care to make him feel loved/welcomed. The curriculum is fantastic and both my kids love going to 'school'. Each child speaks fondly of their teachers and as they move up the previous teachers are always checking in. We absolutely love the staff at this facility. The front end staff is amazing as well. Anytime we need to discuss something, they are very open to the communication. It is clear everyone in the building genuinely cares/has a love for children. We could not be happier with our decision to educate our children at TLE and tell anyone who is looking for care to give them a try.

The Learning Experience has been hands down the best experience my child could have. Ms. Diana and Ms. Hannah have done such a wonderful job and every day my daughter comes home having learned something new. As a first time parent, it was a challenge to bring myself to trust others to look after my little one - The Learning Experience has made the personal transition for me painless and easy. I trust them fully with my daughter. Thank you to the team at the learning experience!!! And thank you Ms. Diana and Ms. Hannah!

We have been taking our daughter for 3 years now since she was 3 months old. It is clear that the staff care about the children. They accommodate special requests when needed and communicate very well with any concerns or questions. We have been so happy with TLE and our daughter is equally excited. Special positive review to Ms. Diana and Ms. Ella as they were so helpful to our daughters growth over the past 3 years. Our daughter has never said "I don't want to go to school" because of their tremendous care and compassion.
