Our Caring & Experienced Staff

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

Ronette L.

If you are a parent who is terrified of the thought of daycare, I understand I was that mother. My daughter enrolled when she was 3 years old. The learning experience put all my fears to rest. I've never had any issues throughout my daughter's experience here. She is now about to be 6yrs old and she is now exiting and moving on to her new journey of grade school. Thank you The Learning Experience for taking such great care of my daughter. The entire staff is lovely , caring and I would do it all over again if I had to!

Our family will always be grateful for the two wonderful years our daughter, Aria, spent at The Learning Experience. From the very beginning, every teacher and staff member made us feel welcome with their kindness, patience, and genuine care. Watching Aria grow during her time there was such a blessing. She learned so much through their engaging curriculum, creative activities, and hands-on experiences that made learning exciting every single day. It was amazing to see how much she developed both academically and socially. Even more importantly, she made some of her very first and best friends there, along with so many wonderful memories that we’ll cherish forever. Although we’ve since moved to Oregon, we’ll always look back on our time at The Learning Experience with gratitude. Thank you to everyone who played a part in Aria’s journey. Your dedication, compassion, and love for the children truly make a difference, and we’ll never forget everything you did for our family. We highly recommend The Learning Experience to any family looking for a safe, nurturing, and fun place for their child to learn and grow.

My family loves The Learning Experience! My twins have been attending for two years. Each teacher they have had has been wonderful, especially preschool teacher Mrs. Aqeela. The kids have healthy meals and a great play and educational balance. The app with updates, announcements, and pictures is amazing. All the staff are very warm, friendly, kind, and helpful. I have had no problems whatsoever in our time here and would highly recommend this daycare for any child.

TLE has been a great place for me & my child since she started in the Infant A class around 5months old. My child loves the teachers so much that even though she is almost 2, she still wants to go visit her old teachers & classrooms on a daily basis. Getting her to leave to go home is sometimes a struggle as she doesn’t want to leave her friends & teachers. Personally I love that she is learning sign language & able to communicate with me both verbally & non-verbally. At times it makes it much easier to help her with daily tasks & needs. The school meal plan and curriculum doesn’t hurt. It allows for me to have a few less meal plans daily and activities that I need to create to help with her development. Location and security is a bonus as well. Thank you to everyone at TLE. Shout out to her current teachers…Amanda, Rose, & Perla. Honorable mention to prior teachers…Nadjmeh, Abida, Pavi, & Julia.

My son has been attending the Learning Experience since Infant B and he is now in Preschool 1 class! This school has been so great for him and his developments. He was born prematurely and was a little behind on his development but this school has really helped him develop and get him where he needs to be! Can’t thank all the teachers and staff enough for all the hard work and support they’ve offered him.

We totally love this place!! I 100 % recommend to anyone looking for safe place for little ones. The director is very nice and understanding and so every staff. Teachers make sure that kids grow both academics and have personal development. My son learns so many things everyday. I wish we knew this place earlier. We are very grateful.

Bilal K.

Our daughter not only enjoyed her school but she also learnt a lot. TLE curriculum includes both academic and personal development. More, the teachers and the staff are all very kind and nice. They are doing their best not as a job but because they enjoy the see kids grow.

Diana S.

My son went to TLE for two years and had an amazing experience. All the teachers are super nice and patient. All staff members are amazing. This school is super safe, I never worried about safety. I definitely recommend bringing your kids here.

Emily Y.

Our daughter started in the infant room last August. As with any parent, I was nervous to have her start daycare. However, the staff at TLE quickly eased all my worries! Her teachers have been amazing, and I absolutely love the daily photo updates that I receive. Thank you TLE!

Maryiama N.

I am absolutely thrilled with the experience my daughter has had at this daycare. She has been attending since she was 1 year old, and the growth I’ve seen in her development and social skills is nothing short of remarkable. The nurturing environment and attentive care provided by the entire staff have truly made a significant impact on her early learning journey. The facility is always impeccably clean and well-maintained, creating a safe and welcoming space for the children. The PS1 class, in particular, is outstanding. They have a wide range of fun and engaging activities that my daughter looks forward to every day. It’s clear that a lot of thought and effort goes into planning these activities, which are not only enjoyable but also educational. I want to give a special shout-out to her amazing teachers, Miss Aqeela and Mr. Bryant. Their dedication, care, and enthusiasm are truly exceptional. They go above and beyond to ensure each child feels valued, supported, and encouraged to reach their full potential. Miss Aqeela’s warm and nurturing nature combined with Mr. Bryant’s engaging and fun approach make for a perfect teaching duo. Additionally, I must compliment the rest of the teaching staff as well. Every teacher and caregiver at the daycare contributes to a positive and enriching environment. Their collective commitment to providing high-quality care and education is evident in everything they do. From greeting the children with smiles each morning to creating a stimulating and inclusive curriculum, the entire team works harmoniously to create a wonderful experience for the kids. I am deeply grateful for the love and attention my daughter receives here. Knowing she is in such capable and caring hands allows me to go about my day with complete peace of mind. Thank you to the entire team for creating such a fantastic place for our children to grow, learn, and thrive.

Patricia R.

They are amazing. From beginning to end I knew my infant was taking care and encouraged by activities, teachers and peers. They are open to listen to your suggestion's or feedbacks and make a change if need it. My experience was great and the teachers and staff are amazing.

5 Stars! My son attended TLE since he was 4 months old until 5 years old. They are very sweet, informative and always answered all of our questions or concerns. The center is very well-kept and clean. They potty trained him and took such great care of him. We had a great experience. Thank you TLE Simi Valley! We love you guys!

Jenny S.

My daughter attended TLE for 2 years from the ages of 2.5 to 4.5. During the time she was there, we had nothing but a positive experience and I'm truly appreciative of all the staff there. The staff is not only nurturing and attentive, but they truly create a warm and welcoming environment for the kids. The curriculum is engaging and age-appropriate, filled with activities that promote social skills, creativity, and early learning. I've seen my child flourish in their care--developing friendships, confidence, and a love for learning. The daily reports and updates provided by the teachers helped me stay connected and informed about my child's progress and activities. The app was also very helpful and kept me at ease. The facility is clean, safe, and well-organized, making it a great space for exploration and play. I also appreciate the emphasis on healthy meals and outdoor playtime, ensuring the children have a balanced routine. My daughter has now been attending TK the last few months and although we do miss TLE, she is continuing to flourish and I can't thank you all enough for preparing her for the rest of her journey!

We have loved our time at TLE in Simi Valley. Our two boys started there in 2021 and the staff and in-class teachers provided our boys with a safe and stable place to be, while learning good manners and how to interact with other kids. The staff at TLE are what make this place so special. Our boys come home talking about the lessons they’ve learned throughout their day and all of the fun times they had with their friends and teachers. In all, we stayed for three years until both boys graduated to kindergarten. We couldn’t have found a better place for our boys and also for us. TLE gave us peace of mind while being away from our kids. The staff treated and loved our kids like their own and we are so grateful for the experience we had there.

Marilee M.

Simi Valley TLE is amazing!! Our grandson has been there for 5 years. They have made him feel loved and safe! And he learned so much. It's not just a daycare! He's learned Spanish and sign language plus writing and numbers etc. Thank you Simi staff for always being there for him and us. We will miss you tremendously ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you for taking good care of my daughter while I'm working. I trust the TLE staff keeping my daughter safe. All the kids are super safe, happy, and kind. All the teachers teach my daughter in good endearing manner (since day one). Thank you Guys 👏👏👏

Stephanie

I want to thank all the amazing staff welcoming my son to preschool. It has been a struggle for me to find the best school for him especially since we are not from the area. He loves this school and the teachers. He wakes up wanting to go to school and i feel so pleased to have found a safe school. All the staff makes us feel at home when attending school here. My son has been attending this school for couple months now and i wish he can stay here forever. Im so glad they changed management because it shows how much they more effort and care into the children. THANK YOU TO ALL THE TEACHERS!

Tessa

When we first brought our children to TLE we knew this was the place that we could fully trust with our children. I absolutely love all the staff, but the way my youngest son Bradley bonded with Mr. Dean melted my heart. Bradley had a hard time bonding with most of the teachers, but the way he bonded to Mr. Dean was amazing. They grew such a strong friendship. Mr. Dean is so loving and caring for all of the children in his classroom. Bradley has now graduated into another classroom, but Mr. Dean still makes effort out of his busy day to visit my son to say hi. It is the highlight of Bradley's day. Thank you TLE and thank you Mr. Dean for being so loving, and caring for my children while my husband and I are at work.

My daughter is 2 years old. When I picked her up today, she ran up to me and yelled, "I had so much fun today!" Then she ran back to play with a puzzle. It's really reassuring for me to know that she genuinely loves being at TLE. The facility is clean, the staff is friendly (wonderful actually), and the curriculum is top-notch. There's really nothing not to like here.

Terence A.

This has been a great place for our child to grow and learn. When our first daycare closed there doors, The Learning Experience opened there's and welcomed us with open arms. We have been excited receiving emails of our little one playing and learning everyday. We thank you for the service you provide enriching the life of our child!

Chiconia A.

After our daycare shut down suddenly because of contract issues I was worried that I would not find another daycare worth the time and money, but we did. We are so happy to be part of TLE. They have great learning activities for my one year old and a warm and friendly staff. It only took a week and a half for my little one to get comfortable with the place and now she runs in and is ready for learning. I also love how in the toddler room they label everything. It's not to early to learn words and associate them with the object. Last but not least we appreciate the structure of her day so that when she gets old enough to transition to kindergarten it will be like second nature to her.

Rachel A.

I'm so happy I found TLE for my infant and preschooler. The staff are super friendly and are almost like a second family! Not only is the school visually appealing to kids with its bright colors and themes, but every single aspect, from the wall art to the activities to the toys, is aimed toward fun AND learning. And that applies to my baby's class, too. He's learning colors, sign language and much more. I truly appreciate the head start TLE is giving my kids! TLE is a dream come true!

Nairie T.

Since the opening of TLE in Nov 2013, we have all been so happy! My daughter started in the Twaddler program and is now in the Prepper program. She is always looking forward to going to "school". I call it a school because she learns so many great things here. The activities and artwork displayed on their walls really shows the level of care given to each child. The staff is top-notch, friendly and attentive, the director is great and the rooms are spotless.
