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.

This is a long overdue review but I wanted to make sure I get to it before the end of the year! We were so fortunate to be accepted into this child care facility with our first kid just around 9 months of age. We were very anxious about sending our infant to any daycare program but the TLE team... Read more

TLE is a clean professional environment where all 3 of my kids have attended. When my oldest went to kinder he was well ahead of his peers, due in direct part to the teaching curriculum at TLE. I would make no hesitation sending my kid here.

My son has been going to TLE for almost 3 months and let me just say, I have never been happier. He is only 13 months, but walks in his classroom and goes straight in for a hug from his teacher.
