Our Caring & Experienced Staff

Teacher quality remains the top reason why families choose The Learning Experience Newbury Park.

Chau

My 1-year-old started a month ago, and he has adapted so well to the environment here. Took him a couple of weeks to get used to being sent here. Now he doesn’t cry anymore at drop-off, and he always looks so happy and engaged in the photos that the teachers upload to their app. I love getting all the updates throughout the day on the app, from what he eats, how many diapers were changed, how much he sleeps, and photos of activities… Ms. Jaiden, Ms. Ashley, Ms. Sunhee, and Ms. Ati were all so nice and accommodating. My son has some developmental delays, but all the teachers are very accommodating and supportive to help my son adapt. The center is very new and well kept. Overall, I am so glad we picked TLE.

Pardeep

We feel very fortunate that our child was able to secure a spot at this daycare. The facility is exceptionally clean, the management is accommodating and responsive, and the teachers are caring, dedicated, and wonderful with the children. We have had a very positive experience.

Jillian

We were so happy to find The Learning Experience. We were at another preschool in the area, and my son was having a really hard time keeping his hands to himself, biting, listening, and more. We started to think it was environmental — that he wasn’t being challenged enough and was becoming bored — so we decided to tour TLE. Upon walking in, we immediately knew it was the right place for our son. The staff is so caring and friendly, and my son loves going to school every day. He has learned more in 6 months at TLE than he did in 2 years at his previous preschool. Even better, he has not been in trouble one time at this school. He has never hit or bitten anyone, which has shown us that the right environment can make such a big difference. We are so grateful we found a place where he feels happy, supported, and able to thrive.

Wow! The Learning Experience in Newbury Park hosted an amazing rockin' rollin' party on Saturday! The BeatBuds performed, and the little ones danced their hearts out while playing tambourines and shakers. There were smiles everywhere! The event featured delicious food, fun crafts, special appearances by Bubbles, and an incredible staff who made everything so memorable. We're still doing the happy dance!

Laura

We are so grateful for the Learning Experience! Our son attended from 6mo-1 year old, and he was always excited at drop off! He was cared for with so much love, heart and intentionality. Highly recommend for all looking for childcare!

Caprina

Absolutely love this daycare! Teachers are very loving towards the kids!! My son loves it here- his first school!

Britta

We have had a great experience with The Learning Experience, which we have found to be very professional, welcoming, and educational. Special shout outs to Ms Jessica in the kitchen who made it possible for our preschooler’s medically related food restriction to be accommodated, Ms Missy who brings a great energy to the preschool classroom, and Ms Tanya and Ms Alessandra who run the younger infant room and are outstanding infant/preschool professionals- our baby has always been happy to be dropped off at “school” because the teachers kept her very engaged, and she was delighted by all the activities and simply the teachers themselves. I loved seeing pictures throughout the day of things like the infant “circle time” or my preschooler out on a bike on the (very large) playground area. Was just enough information to see how they were doing without being overload. Ms. Nicola the Director is also very thoughtful and helpful and easy to reach when needed. All around highly recommend!

Safety & Peace of Mind

Newbury Park families consistently report feeling secure about the supervision, entry protocols, and overall safety standards at our Center.

Julie

Kind and caring teachers are one of their greatest strengths. I get updates about my kids via the app daily. Great safety and security precautions. Kids play and learn- there's curriculum developed and considered for a whole child in their developmental stages. They use technology and are fun. They get snacks, meals, and (younger ones get naps). Their center director is supportive and present (for communication and questions, too) The hours they hold work well for my schedule. I appreciate the staff and their hard work.

Victoria

An amazing school / daycare! I am a fussy picky parent and I couldn't be happier!! My baby loves this school as well!! VERY HAPPY

Samantha

We are having such an amazing experience with our little one at the learning experience. Chloe in Infant B worked so closely with us as we transitioned from full time at home to full time daycare. Providing updated and pictures all day to help us transition and giving us tips and tricks to make things easier on our daughter. We continue to get support from all of the teachers and staff as our little one grows!

Abhishek

Exceptional Learning Experience – The Best Daycare in Newbury Park! We are beyond grateful for the wonderful learning experience our daughter has had at this daycare. From the very first day, the teachers have created an environment filled with warmth, curiosity, and encouragement. It’s amazing to see how much she has learned — from new words and songs to problem-solving, creativity, and social skills. Every activity is thoughtfully designed to help children explore, learn, and grow at their own pace. The teachers make learning fun and engaging, while also focusing on emotional and behavioral development, which has helped our daughter blossom with confidence. We’ve noticed incredible progress in her communication, independence, and eagerness to learn new things every day. The balance between structured learning and free play has been perfect, and the teachers’ dedication truly shines through. We sincerely thank the entire team for their patience, love, and genuine care. This place has not only nurtured our daughter’s learning journey but also given us peace of mind knowing she’s in the best hands possible. Without a doubt, this is the best daycare in Newbury Park, and we wholeheartedly recommend it to every parent who values both care and early education. With heartfelt appreciation, – Abhishek & Divya Agarwal

Victoria

Mrs. Ati is the best teacher out there!! Absolutely love her and how much she genuinely cares for all of the children. My son adores her and asks for her on the weekends. =) Thank you for all you do Mrs. Ati, you will always be special to us

Max

The daycare where they actually CARE. The stuff is super nice. I truly feel that they care about your kid. Honestly I'm not sure if there is anything more important for me than that. Just that fact that my son is okay staying with them in the morning is a big thing. Thank you guys for being you

Cleanliness & Classroom Environment

Our parents regularly comment on the exceptional hygiene standards and welcoming atmosphere of our Newbury Park classrooms.

Sylvia

Best choice to put my daughter. The staff is so kind and caring. My daughter loves going everyday she even gets sad when she misses a day. My daughter was very shy and kept to herself but with the first 2 weeks at the Learning Experience shes talking more and making friends. I love getting the updates on her and what does throughout her time there. Im so glad she's there. Your always greeted and all the staff are very kind. If you want a good safe place to send your child this is it. I cant imagine my daughter being anywhere else.

Xiomara

From the first day of touring The Learning Experience both my little one and I fell in love with the place. Then when she started we saw how amazing everyone is that works there. My daughter has been saying that her teachers are so nice and amazing. As a parent these are the things we want our children to tell us when they attend somewhere. I highly recommend it!

Cristina

So far we have had a great experience with this daycare. They’ve been taking care of our baby Maya for a couple of months and she loved it from the first day. The school is clean and everyone is very friendly and professional. Ms. Alessandra, Ms. Chloe, Ms. Pattie, and Ms. Tanya are awesome!

Anusha

My daughter has been in Pre-School 1 for the past few months and loves it here. The facility has good safety restrictions, is new, clean and well maintained. The staff are extremely caring and make it a fun environment for the kids. Special shout out to Ms Missy. The Director Ms. Nicola is great with communication and creating a community for the families by hosting events and celebrations at the school

Jenna

My son has been going here since Dec 2024. I love how they split the age groups by half years as there is such a significant difference between toddlers between the 1-2.5 age stages. He started in Preppers, graduated to Twaddlers (where the phenomenal Ms. Paula was incredibly helpful in helping him potty train) and he has moved up to the preschool class in June! Everyone there are helpful and caring, and the cost includes daily healthy meals and snacks which is such a added bonus!

Stop looking, you've found the right place. As a parent, you only want what's best for your child, so you spend countless hours doing research and watching "what to look for in a daycare" videos. (that was me) The staff at TLE is professional, attentive, and genuinely invested in each child's development. The facility is clean, well-organized, and designed to promote learning through play. They consistently communicate through daily updates and photos, which provide extra peace of mind. I can personally vouch for the staff in the infant rooms, especially Ms. Chloe and Ms. Brianna. Their level of care is unmatched and a million "thank yous" would still not be enough. Highly recommend TLE to any family seeking a safe and nurturing environment.

5 Stars – A Wonderful Experience at Newbury! We’ve been part of the Newbury family since October 2024, and I truly can’t say enough good things about this preschool. After having some really negative experiences at other daycares, I was naturally full of questions and concerns—but the staff at Newbury answered every one of them with kindness, patience, and professionalism. From the very beginning, I’ve felt nothing but peace about my decision to enroll my daughter here. My daughter is now 2.5 years old, and I’ve seen so much growth in her independence, confidence, and learning. Their curriculum is thoughtfully structured—focusing on age-appropriate development in areas like language, manners, math, art, and more—all while encouraging curiosity and independence. What really sets Newbury apart is how much they care. Every child is treated as an individual, not just part of a group, and the staff really takes time to understand and support each family’s needs and values. Anytime I’ve had a concern, the team has been open, respectful, and quick to respond. They’re always willing to make adjustments where needed, and I always feel heard. The teachers are educated and passionate about what they do, and it shows every single day. The director is not only experienced, but also a mom herself—she truly loves the kids and the environment she’s built. The curriculum director is also a mom, and her insight and care really shine through in the way the program is run. Most importantly, I feel safe leaving my daughter at Newbury. Knowing she’s in a place where she is loved, nurtured, and learning brings me so much comfort. It’s truly the best decision we could have made for our family, and I highly recommend Newbury to any parent looking for a caring, structured, and enriching preschool experience in Ventura County

Moms V.

We absolutely LOVE The Learning Experience! From the moment you walk into their brand-new, state-of-the-art facility, you can feel the warmth and care they pour into every detail. The classrooms are bright, clean, and designed to encourage learning and creativity. Their curriculum is top-notch—blending academics with character development in the most engaging ways. Our child is not only learning letters and numbers but also kindness, patience, and confidence. The staff is nurturing, attentive, and truly invested in each child’s growth. And as a working parent, I especially appreciate their flexible schedule options—it’s made balancing work and parenting so much easier. If you’re looking for a preschool that feels like a second home and supports your child every step of the way, TLE is the place! ???

Kinsie

Working at The Learning Experience has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my career! ? As an educator, it’s amazing to be part of a team that genuinely cares about each child’s development and well-being. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed to help children grow not just academically, but socially and emotionally too. It’s inspiring to see how engaged and confident our little learners become! Our brand-new, state-of-the-art facility provides the perfect environment for learning and play—it’s safe, clean, and full of energy. And with a leadership team that’s supportive and communicative, I always feel valued and empowered in my role. If you’re looking for a nurturing workplace where you make a difference every single day, TLE is the place to be! ???

Nicola

As the Center Director, and a parent of two children currently enrolled, I can genuinely say this has been an incredible learning experience for my family. Watching my kids grow, thrive, and love coming to school each day has been nothing short of amazing. I’m beyond grateful for everything our center offers and wholeheartedly believe in the strength of our program. We focus on the whole child, preparing them for elementary school through thoughtfully designed classrooms that support developmental growth and promote smooth transitions as they graduate from one room to the next. Our state of the art technology, engaging curriculum, and fun features like the splash pad all add to the enriching environment we’ve created. We document meaningful observations, hold parent teacher conferences, and offer in house enrichments like Little Musicians, Little Engineers, and Little Athletes. Plus, our lunch and snack program is included in tuition! It’s just one more way we support families. As a center that proudly caters to working families, we’re open year-round, closing only for nine major holidays. Our team is constantly growing through regular training and professional development, ensuring we uphold the highest standards of care and education. I’m truly proud to lead this amazing team of teachers who are helping not only my children but all of our students grow and shine each day. It’s a privilege to be part of such a nurturing, inspiring community.

Aisling

I cannot say enough wonderful things about TLE and the amazing team that runs this center! From the moment we walked through the door, we have felt completely welcomed and reassured. The staff are warm, attentive and genuinely passionate about what they do! Ms. Chloe, Ms. Brianna and Ms. Alessandra make it easy to trust my infant is cared for and loved all day long. And my toddler/preschooler never stops talking about how much he loves his teachers, Ms. Paula, Ms. Angela and Ms. Missy. Our children absolutely thrive here and we have seen such a positive transformation in both of our children since enrolling. The absolute joy on their face at drop off and pick up says it all!

Carrie H.

What a great benefit the Learning Experience is to our community! So many families I know feel peace of mind knowing their kids are well cared for and happy there. Kudos to the staff and to the director Kinsie F for providing such a needed service to our families. (Kinsie is AMAZING with kids…I’ve seen her devotion to our community’s kids at karate, at PTA, helping at schools, etc.) Thank you TLE!!

Jeremy

The Learning Experience has made it easy getting my son out the door for school, He loves to go and even asks to go on the weekend! He talks about his friends all the time and he loves his teachers. I see how much he has learned in a short time of attending, his confidence has soared, and I love the school caters to my son’s dietary needs. Everything about this school I love, especially Ms Missy, she makes drop offs so easy, she’s always so welcoming and engaging. We cannot recommend TLE enough! From the staff to curriculum, it’s a wonderful place for children.

Sheena G.

Toured this school and was very impressed with all aspects of it! From the beautiful new building to the staff, everything was great. I got to meet the owner and she was friendly and very involved. The teachers I saw all seemed engaged with the kids in the classrooms. I really liked the curriculum they offer compared to other places I’ve seen as well as all the colorful characters. Definitely worth it!

Jessica

In today's society, finding childcare that meets your child's unique needs is challenging. TLE is your place if you seek childcare that caters to and understands the parents' concerns about child development and overall safety. My daughter loves her teacher, Ms. Courtney. She is amazing. She takes her job seriously. She knows her parents by name and will interact with the siblings during pick-up and drop-off. She makes your experience in her classroom personal. She will send you pictures and updates throughout the day! Ms. Courtney knows different strategies to help comfort your child. She is very patient! We love Ms. Courtney. I am so thankful that she is contributing to my daughter's social, emotional, and cognitive success at TLE.

Staci

The Owners/management are amazing. They truly care about the children and go above and beyond to create a great environment for the kids. I highly recommend TLE.

Is your child ready for kindergarten? Measured independently by COR Advantage during the 2025-2026 school year, our preschoolers achieve 97% kindergarten readiness.

This place is magic! Our sweet boy started at 3 and he is thriving. He’s excited to go to school each morning, and our picky eater is getting double portions! Thank you so much Newbury team!

Carolina B.

My daughter Sophie started at the learning experience when she was 9 months, it was her first experience outside home. I was worry, but after one day she was so happy to go back to class with Miss Chloe. She is definitely becoming more independent. You can tell she is soooo loved there with every smile she gives to all the teachers and staff. The place is super clean, I am confortable that she crawls all over the classroom. All the toys are washed every day, I see it happen since Sophie is the last one to be picked up. The staff is friendly and nice. What ever question or concern you have they respond to you right away. I recommend this place over and over again.

Brittany S.

It can be intimidating trying to find a place to trust in caring for your child, but we are so lucky to have found TLE Newbury Park and could not be happier! Our son has been going just over a month and he has already learned so much. All of the teachers and caregivers are so kind and I truly feel like they do care for my son and his well-being. We also love getting picture updates throughout the day! I cannot wait for my son to continue to grow and learn there.

Shenley D.
