Our Caring & Experienced Staff

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

Danielle A.

TLE Logan Square was truly one of the best decisions I could have made for my son and our family. ?? My son has been a TLE student for the past three years, and during that time, TLE became so much more than childcare—it became our village. There was never a doubt in my mind when I left him in their care. I knew he was safe, loved, supported, and surrounded by people who genuinely wanted to see him thrive. When he first arrived at TLE, he was hesitant to speak and still learning how to make friends and find his confidence. Now, as we prepare to send him off to kindergarten, I look at him with so much pride. He is reading, proficient in math, emotionally intelligent, articulates himself with confidence, and has developed the most amazing group of friends. The growth I have witnessed over these three years has been incredible. TLE also worked seamlessly with his outside therapists and supported our family whenever I needed guidance, especially as I navigated decisions about elementary school. Even when my work location changed and staying at TLE was no longer the most convenient option, there was no question—it was worth it. His teachers cared for him like he was their own. The administrators treated us like family. And there was a wonderful sense of community among the parents because we were all on the same page: we wanted our children to be loved, challenged, supported, and given every opportunity to flourish. And my son genuinely LOVES TLE! He enjoys the curriculum, watches the Bubbles and Friends YouTube series, and we still listen to the songs from the Bubbles and Friends app in the car. TLE wasn’t simply the place he went while I worked. It became part of his childhood. As we close this chapter and prepare for kindergarten, leaving is truly bittersweet. TLE Logan Square gave us the total package—education, care, community, support, and love. I will forever be grateful to every teacher, administrator, and staff member who poured into my son and our family over these three years. Thank you for being part of our village and for helping my little boy grow into the confident, curious, kind kid he is today. We will always love TLE Logan Square! ??

I can’t say enough wonderful things about The Learning Experience . They have truly been amazing and gave me peace of mind every single day knowing that she was in such a caring, safe, and supportive environment. Big thank you to Melissa, BOTH Ms. Jessica’s, Ms, Nora, Ms. Mary and honestly ALL of the staff! They have each made so many special moments for my daughter the last two years!

This past September my daughter started the preschool program at TLE (vine st) The teachers in my daughter’s classroom are exceptional. Their dedication to fostering a nurturing and engaging learning environment is evident every day. They genuinely care about each child's individual needs, encouraging them to learn and excel at their own pace and the curriculum that they follow is outstanding in my opinion. It’s heartwarming to see how they celebrate my child's achievements, no matter how small. My daughter looks forward to all of the different activities that have such as pajama day , pizza day, Show and tell etc. Additionally, I appreciate the daycare's efforts to give back to the community. They regularly engage in fundraisers that give back to make a wish foundation. The school also has a room dedicated to families who may be in need of pantry and clothing items. Lastly, I would like to share how much I love the app that the school uses to communicate with the parents. They regularly send pictures of moments throughout my daughters day and also share what she eats, when she naps and if they are in need of any supplies. The app also has games, videos, songs and stories on there as well. Overall, this daycare has exceeded my expectations in every way. It’s a wonderful place where my daughter is not only learning but thriving. Thank you for all that you do TLE

Finding the right preschool for your child is such an important decision, and I’m so grateful we found this one for my daughter. From the very beginning, the environment has been warm, nurturing, and truly supportive of her growth and development. A very special thank you to her amazing teachers, Jessica and Shirley in PS1A. Their patience, kindness, and genuine love for the children shine through every single day. They create a safe and engaging space where my daughter feels comfortable, confident, and excited to learn. I’ve seen such a positive difference in her social skills, communication, and overall happiness since being in their care. It brings me so much peace knowing she is not only being taught, but also cared for with so much attention and heart. I highly recommend this preschool to any parent looking for a place where their child will truly thrive.

We’ve had such a wonderful experience with The Learning Experience on Vine Street over the past two years. The teachers are truly exceptional...very patient, and attentive. It's obvious that they genuinely care about each child. Everyone from the leadership team (Jessica and Melissa), the teachers (Ms. Tyler, Ms. Bri, Ms. Abby, and others), and the employees (especially the gentleman preparing the meals for all the kids!) is fantastic. We are always greeted with a warm hello from the whole team. Communication has always been clear and consistent, and we really appreciate the transparency when it comes to pricing and policies. Our child’s first day was emotional (lots of tears at drop-off!), but the staff handled it with so much compassion and reassurance. It didn’t take long before those tears turned into excitement...now wakes up excited to go to daycare and comes home happy every day. We’re so grateful to have found such a supportive and nurturing environment. Highly recommend to any family looking for a place they can trust.

Amelia M.

We have sent our son to TLE for the past 3.5 years and have been very happy with our experience. We love that the center has continued to grow and evolve, and have been so happy with the staff. Our son has loved all of his present and former teachers. Shoutout to Miss Mo, Miss Jess, and Mr. Juston- he talks about you all the time and loves being at school because you’re there!

Safety & Peace of Mind

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

Maryam J.

Choosing this daycare has been one of the best decisions we’ve made for our daughter. From day one, the entire team has been incredibly caring, supportive, and genuinely invested in her growth and happiness. One of my favorite things is that I never have to worry about what she eats during the day. Their menu is excellent, and it’s reassuring to know she’s getting nutritious, well balanced meals. The learning environment has been incredible. Our 2-year-old comes home teaching us something new almost every day. She can now count from 1 to 10 in Spanish, and it’s been amazing to watch how much she’s learned and grown since starting here. Whenever I’ve had a question or concern, no matter how small, the staff has always taken the time to listen, work with me, and find the best possible solution. Her teachers have all been wonderful. Ms. Aaniye, Ms. Myeesha, Ms. Ulaunda, Mr. Juston, and Ms. Brie have each played such an important role in making her feel loved and supported. Ms. Aaniye has been amazing with potty training even encouraging me to stop sending her in diapers because my daughter was doing so well at school. That was such a huge relief and gave me so much confidence in the progress they were making with her. Every morning, Ms. Myeesha greets the children with the warmest smile and has such a special way of making them feel comfortable and excited to start their day. Mr. Juston is incredibly kind, and my daughter talks about him at home all the time, which says so much about the positive connection they’ve built. Whenever Ms. Ulaunda is in the gym with the children, she has such a warm, grandmotherly presence that makes all the kids feel safe and cared for. Ms. Brie had been also been so kind and attentive when she was with them and we’re grateful for everything she had done. The front desk staff, and the manager Samantha, have also been fantastic. Every interaction has been pleasant, and they’ve always made sure my questions were answered thoroughly and any concerns were resolved quickly and thoughtfully. It’s clear that everyone here truly cares about the children, not just academically but emotionally as well. As a parent, there is no greater comfort than knowing your child is in a place where she is genuinely loved, encouraged, and excited to go every day. I couldn’t recommend this daycare more highly. ????

Jun N.

Our son attended The Learning Experience for about four years, starting when he was 21 months old. We are originally from Japan, and at first we were nervous about sending him to school in a new country. Looking back now, we are truly grateful that he was able to spend such wonderful years there. Every teacher he met was kind, caring, and supportive. The school also offered many fun events throughout the year, which our son always looked forward to. He made so many friends and created memories that will stay with him for a lifetime. We are deeply thankful to all the teachers who took care of him and to Jessica, who managed the school with such dedication. Now that we have returned to Japan, we already miss everyone, but we look forward to meeting everyone again someday. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Kristen K.

Miss Jessica and Miss Melissa facilitate a safe, and joyful place for the children to come to each day, which alleviates the worry parents may feel . Thank you to Miss Kayla and Miss Jasmine for their warmth and kindness. They provided such a positive environment and great first learning experience The way they see each child for their special qualities, shaping their little lives in ways that will last far beyond preschool. Thank you to the ENTIRE staff including the chef who all provided an amazingly positive learning environment. You each made it special. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the impact you’ve had on my granddaughter . While you may not always see the significance of the little things you do each day, please know that for us, it has made a tremendous difference and we are so grateful!

Joshua B.

Ms.D is absolutely one of the best teachers at this location. Her passion for her kids is undeniable. She actually takes time out to get to know them and help build their personality. The entire staff is great, very warm and welcoming. Please continue the exceptional work!

Ronessa E.

My daughter has been attending TLE since she was 8 months’ old - she is now 4. My wife and I chose this daycare center because of the curriculum. There is no tv babysitting happening here. The center has gone through its growing pains. Now that my daughter is older and the center is under new direction with more wonderful teachers, we enjoy that my daughter can go on trips for summer camp that stretch her learning outside of the classroom.

Cleanliness & Classroom Environment

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

Rebecca R.

My daughter has been enrolled at TLE at Logan Square for 4 years. She started at 18 months and will be graduating from their Pre-K program this spring. We have been very pleased with our experience for the entire 4 years. All of the teachers have been wonderful! She had 2 incredible teachers this year...Miss Kayla and Miss Jasmine who were both extremely helpful, professional, kind, and fun! My daughter absolutely adores Miss Kayla and Miss Jasmine! There has been significant improvement in the center in the last 8 months with the new center director, Jessica. She is extremely dedicated to the center, and very communicative. I noticed a big difference in staff retention since she has been the director, and she has implemented many fun new events for the kids. I wish she would have come sooner! I highly recommend TLE!

Mayuko

The Learning Experience is a wonderful school! Not only do they have seasonal events, but there’s also something new and exciting happening every day, providing my son with fun and educational experiences. Our family always looks forward to seeing what events are planned each month. Since joining, my son has been learning not just English but also Spanish and sign language! The teachers are kind and supportive, always attentive to my son’s needs, and we are truly grateful for them. Thank you as always Ms. Rania.

Lauren

We have been at TLE for almost 3 years now. Our daughter started just shy of 5 months old, and has really thrived there. Her teachers have always been attentive, caring, and enthusiastic, and have provided a great environment for her to learn and grow. Her preschool teachers, Miss Kelsi and Miss Jessica, have been especially impressive; in just a few short weeks with them, her letter and number recognition have skyrocketed, as has her counting and grasp of the days of the week and months of the year (complete with very catchy songs). My daughter has made her best friends at TLE, and often asks to go to school at bedtime and on the weekends, which speaks volumes about how much she loves it there.

Noah C.

My child has been in attendance at TLE for the past 3 yrs. It has been such an easy, comforting transition from her being home to preschool. I can say this has been such a great experience. From the teachers, the staff, and even the other parents I feel at peace going to work with my child here. I was a little apprehensive when the center got a new director, since Jessica has been there I can see a change, for the better. She’s always there with a smiling face to greet you. Always eager and very passionate about what she does. I would do it over again if I had to.

Carlos B.

As a first time Parent I feel like this place is an educational dream! My child comes home learning new words , teaching ME sign language and even some Spanish. The teachers are so sweet and knowledgeable on my child's needs. The Directors Jessica and Melissa are great to be around always, and willing to help. Truly glad to be a part of this Learning Experience.

I’ve been a parent here for 2 and a half years and I must say my children and I love it here! The teachers are passionate about my children’s education, and it shows. Since bringing my son here at 2 years old I’ve seen a huge improvement in his willingness to learn. Thanks to ms Jessica for giving my son the one on one he needed, and ms Shirley for being so kind and loving to him. Thank you Nora and aisha for always showing up for my son and teaching him. Thank you Briana, and Tyler for your hard work in supporting my daughter as she develops . Your patience and commitment to supporting my child means a lot to our family. With your guidance, our daughter has developed into a confident and capable child. You guys are all one of a kind and make my children and I experience wonderful. I couldn’t ask for a better school for my children.

Dhivya S.

We have been part of this school since my child was 18 months old, and it’s been a joy to watch how things have evolved over the years. This prekindergarten year has truly been our favorite. Miss Kayla and Miss Jasmine have been absolutely wonderful. They have played a big role in nurturing my child’s love for art and creativity, and he has learned so much in their class. They are always coming up with fun, engaging activities that teach the kids about the world in such creative ways. We also really appreciate the regular communication—emails, and the monthly calendar from Miss Jessica help keep us informed about all the exciting things happening, from theme days to special guests. We are so grateful for the care and effort that goes into making each day meaningful for the kids. Pre-K has truly been a special one!

Kay R.

I have been a parent at this school for 4 years and have had nothing but wonderful experiences! My daughter has loved every single one of her teachers and has created so many meaningful relationships with her peers. Ms. Jessica and Ms. Melissa are the absolute best! They have consistently supported my daughter throughout her learning journey here at TLE. The curriculum TLE has to offer is one of a kind. Just last weekend the school hosted a prom to fundraise for Make-A-Wish Foundation! What a great way to teach the children to give back to the community while having fun!!! I would wholeheartedly recommend this school to any parent!!!

Sameed

We’ve had a truly wonderful experience since our daughter joined The Learning Experience. From day one, we’ve been impressed by the care and attention given to every aspect of the center. 1. Cleanliness and hygiene are outstanding—the environment is consistently well-maintained and thoughtfully organized. 2. There’s a great balance of indoor and outdoor activities. The children are taken on safe, supervised walks, and the indoor play promotes critical thinking, creativity, and social bonding. 3. The nutritious meals provided are tailored to meet our dietary preferences, which we deeply appreciate. The staff are incredibly warm and loving. Our daughter’s teacher is especially nurturing, and we see how comfortable and happy our child is each day. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed for toddlers, supporting their development in a fun, engaging way. We feel truly lucky to have The Learning Experience as part of our daughter’s early journey!

Ben

My child has been here since she was 7 months old and we have found a great, diverse, and loving community. The staff has consistently been supportive and focused on helping my child thrive. The director does a wonderful job creating opportunities for kids to explore and invite guests and educators to promote new things, for example outside story tellers and visits from fire fighters, healthcare workers, and police officers. Our family is very happy sending our child here.

Kindergarten Readiness and School Preparation

One of the most common reasons families choose The Learning Experience Philadelphia is our whole-child approach to kindergarten readiness.

Anthonia

We have thoroughly enjoyed having our daughter at The Learning Experience Logan Square. The curriculum is highly educational, classrooms are clean and inviting. The Director Jessica is very involved, and it is evident she and her staff care deeply for the kids in their care. Jessica, Melissa and the staff engage the children in age and developmentally appropriate scholarly activities. It's been a pleasure to watch our daughter grow and see that she enjoys the company of the friends she has made at the center. The staff clearly strive for excellence, and it is evident in work that they do with the children.

Rob

Our daughter has been at TLE Logan Square for almost 3 years and as she's coming up on graduation I wanted to write a review on what an amazing experience she's had here. First, the curriculum they teach has her more than ready for kindergarten. It's not just that she knows her letters, numbers etc. - it's that she has learned to genuinely enjoy being in a classroom environment here. They make learning fun and have helped create a solid foundation for education. Second, the staff is INCREDIBLE. As she's moved up through the classes, our daughter (and us) have liked each of her teachers more than the last. It's going to be difficult saying goodbye to all these amazing people if I'm being honest. They do an outstanding job with the kids - and the kids get to know all of the teachers, making the transition to the next class up smooth and easy. They do a great job of communicating with the parents. If I had one critique on TLE, it would have been this - but since Jessica, the center Director came a year or so ago this issue was resolved. We are in the loop on everything happening at the school through email/text and we get a calendar at the start of every month with all the fun things Jessica has planned - theme days, special guests, etc. Lastly, they have a great app that the teachers updated throughout the day with photos and descriptions of what the kids are doing/learning that day. They app also has original content and games featuring TLE's characters like Bubbles the Elephant - which for some reason the kids like more than Mickey Mouse, Santa or other characters. I can not speak highly enough about TLE - we're so happy our daughter had this experience.

My grandson Jack attends TLE on Vine Street in Philadelphia. I am fortunate enough to take him to breakfast several times a week and then escort him to "School". I have been doing this for over a year and have gotten to know many of the staff and many students. The place is extremely inviting, alway clean and orderly, and has many dedicated staff members making their team. Jack enjoys TLE, has learned incredible things and is growing up wonderfully. Thank you TLE.

We couldn't be more obsessed with our daycare! We say almost every day how lucky we are to have found TLE Logan Square. We started our daughter there when she was about 11 weeks old and have been there for almost a year now. Our daughter is SO happy to go to school every day. When we approach the building, she holds out her arms to go play. She loves all of her teachers and we can tell that they give her so much love and attention every day. She has bonded with all the teachers in her classes and in the other classes as well. When you come in or out of daycare, teachers in each class will pop their head out to say hi and give a hug to your kiddo. They really, really love their students. The daycare recently held a prom as a fundraiser for Make-a-Wish Foundation and the teachers were tearing up as they saw their students come in all dressed up. We are so lucky to share our little girl with these kind and passionate educators! I was so nervous about going back to work but I know our daughter is in amazing hands each and every day. They do SO many enriching activities every day. From the get go in the infant classroom, they do fun and unique activities, like playing with bubble wrap and paint! I get ideas for things to try at home from what I see in the pictures from school. Now that she is in the toddler class she LOVES taking outdoor walks and playing in the indoor playground. We absolutely love the daycare app where they share updates throughout the day of what the kids are up to. It's so awesome to get photos of them enjoying themselves and learning throughout the day. It makes you feel so happy as a parent to see pictures of your kids throughout the day and to know they are having fun and learning. Since starting daycare, our daughter's development has exploded. She is on track or ahead for all her milestones and has learned things I wouldn't have thought to teach her at home like sign language which has been SO useful. She loves the daycare characters and talks about BUBBLES (the mascot) at home! The daycare management does a great job with timely updates and makes a huge effort to make the daycare a special environment and a community by organizing events like the recent prom and celebrating things like "National Dino Day" with a special story time. We love getting updates about these special events and knowing that our daughter will have a special day at school. I could write another many pages of all the reasons we love TLE! Truly an amazing place and we are so grateful that our daughter gets to learn, grow, and play here!

We had such a great experience and are so grateful for the care our daughter got while she was at TLE Logan Square! All of the staff were always so welcoming and friendly. Her teachers from both the infant and toddler rooms were amazing and we cannot thank them enough. Our daughter learned and grew so much while she was there. We loved the program and getting pictures throughout the day. Thank you to our TLE family for taking such good care of our Maddie girl!

Basim

What an amazing learning center. My son Amin was diagnosed with autism as a worried very protective parent I wasn't sure how he was going to do with a new place but they made him feel comfortable and just like one of the children in the school. One person who's beyond amazing is Ms Jessica, I have met a lot of teachers and caretakers but none like Ms Jessica she take her time with each kid I don't know how she does it but I just wanted to say thank you ms Jessica my son is now using sign language to communicate with us and I couldn't be more happier.

Selina

My little Moose loves his class and his teachers especially Ms. Jessica! My Moose come from a school that excluded him from activities because he is non verbal and also has developmental delays (autistic) so he wasn't learning because nobody took the time. He has been with Ms. Jessica for about 5 months and we see the change he is learning sign language and making small sentences. He is cleaning up behind himself and showing so much excitement to play with other kids and diy activities at home and school. He also listens better when asked to do things. She is really best person to come into his life. I am so excited and overwhelmed with gratefulness to have Ms. Jessica as a caregiver.

Salama A.
