Hands down best daycare/preschool around. I love how they keep me updated on my child throughout the day by getting multiple pictures of my daughter having fun and learning and what she has eaten. Our daughter started here in April after having a bad experience at our previous childcare facility . Enrolling our toddler at The Learning Experience has been the best decision my family has ever made. All of the teachers and staff have been so comforting and nurturing and can really tell that they love their job. As a first time mom this brings me so much reassurance and happiness to know my child is well taken care of and loved. Ms. Lee, Ms. Sandy,Ms. Liz, Ms. Crystal and Ms. Staci thank you so much for helping my little girl get adjusted to a new center and building her self esteem back up. Although are time at The Learning Experience is just beginning it has been the nothing short of amazing. My daughter went from crying and begging me to not take her to “school” to begging me to take her to “school”.

Our children were fortunate to have Ms. Liz and Ms. Naomi as their VPK teachers. They are both kind and effective, and are an asset to TLE. We feel our children are ready to begin kindergarten to succeed.

From the moment we first met Karina, it was evident that she has a special gift for nurturing infants. Her warm smile and comforting demeanor instantly put us at ease during what can be a daunting transition for new parents. What truly sets Karina apart is her genuine passion for her work.In the infant room, every detail is meticulously thought out to create a nurturing and stimulating environment. From the cozy cribs to the colorful toys and engaging activities, it's clear that Karina prioritizes the well-being and development of each child in her care.One thing that truly impressed us is Karina’s ability to tailor their approach to meet the unique needs of every child. Whether it's soothing a fussy baby, facilitating tummy time, or encouraging early milestones, they approach each interaction with patience, kindness, and expertise.Overall, we couldn't be happier with our experience at this daycare, thanks in large part to Karina. She is truly an invaluable asset to the team, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have her caring for our little one. Five stars simply don't do justice to the exceptional level of care and dedication she provides.Communication is also top-notch via the Bubbles and Friends app at the facility. We appreciate the regular updates and insights into our baby's day, including feedings, naps, and activities. It's evident that TLE crew takes the time to get to know each child individually and builds strong connections with both the babies and their families.We wholeheartedly recommend TLE to any parent seeking a nurturing and supportive environment for their child.

While we may be new to TLE, it hasn’t taken long for our family to fall in love with Ms. Karina. From the moment we toured the facility we knew she was something special and it made the decision to send our kiddos there a no brainer. Our time there so far has been nothing short of wonderful. She treats our daughter like one of her own and we’ll forever be grateful for that. Thank you Ms. Karina for allowing us parents to have such peace of mind when we walk out of the facility each and every morning.Our experience with the director Staci and assistant director Niki has also been nothing short of perfect. From the moment I called in a panic searching for care due to having a horrendous experience with our old childcare provider to now - they’ve been wonderful. Their communication is phenomenal and the energy they bring to the facility is unmatched.Ms. Matilda and Ms. Leah have done a wonderful job helping our oldest transition at a new daycare. The first few weeks of getting your little one adjusted can be a challenge but they’ve been so patient and understanding throughout this process. Thanks for all you do!

This place has really made sending my baby to daycare as easy as it can be. The directors are so sweet and responsive, and the teachers in Infant A - Miss Karina and Miss Diana - are wonderful. Miss Karina has really done everything she can to make me and my husband feel comfortable and safe leaving our son there. They are so helpful and never seem annoyed by me asking a million questions and being a nervous first time parent. They treat us with kindness and respect and help us gain insight into our baby’s needs. I would definitely recommend!

My son’s teachers Ms. Amanda and Ms. Bristol are absolutely amazing. They are fantastic teacher’s and make me feel comfortable leaving my son when I have to work. They let the kids have fun and play and be kids and also care deeply about the kids. I’m grateful to have them. Ms. Kortney, Ms. Karina, and Ms. Crystal are also phenomenal teachers.

Our daughter began attending in January with Ms. Diana and Ms. Karina. We could not have asked for better individuals to take care of her. They are observant, caring, and welcoming, despite our initial reserves of putting our baby in daycare. Ms. Karina has the softest, kindest, most calming voice every time we interact with her. Ms. Diana always welcomes us with a smile. The administrative staff have been informative and are always willing to work with us. The center is clean, organized, and provides multiple opportunities for learning and development. So far, we are very pleased with TLE Lakewood Ranch!

As a first-time parent, I really appreciate all the help Mrs. Karina provided in transitioning our infant son Maddox to daycare. She has shared her expertise and knowledge to ensure all our son's needs are met together. I feel completely at ease knowing he is being taken case of so well. In addition to social activities, there is lots of art! Mrs. Karina offers really beautiful, creative projects for our little one to participate in. I am so happy with our decision to send our son to TLE!

Parents, I know this is hard. Really, I visited 13 different academies for my daughter. Between the waiting lists and the feeling in my gut during each visit, we decided to try The Learning Experience in Lakewood Ranch. We are really happy we chose this academy for our daughter. She's so happy! Every time we arrive, she sings, "¡Llegamos! ¡Llegamos!" (We are here! We are here!) with a big smile on her face. Sure, the first week was a bit of a rollercoaster, but she's already feeling so comfortable. Yesterday and today, she was so chilled out and happy that she waved me off with a casual "Bye bye, mom." I mean, talk about a smooth transition, right? Now, I know every kid is different, but let me give a shoutout to Mrs. Sandy and Mrs. Maria from Twoddler B. These ladies are absolutely great and kind; they try their hardest to make every child feel so good that this process can be a little easier for both parent and child. And let's not forget about Mrs. Shay—she's been a total lifesaver during the whole adaptation process. So, a massive thank you to the incredible team at The Learning Experience! You guys rock!

Ms. Sandy and Ms. Maria have been absolutely fabulous with our son. They are very mindful of his severe food allergies and put precautions into place to keep him safe which helps ease my very nervous mama heart. Our son constantly comes home talking about things he learned with them, and spontaneously sang us the full ABCs just the other day (he is 2). We wish they could be our son’s teachers forever!! Staci, Shay, and Nikki have also been lovely working with us. They all know the kids and parents by heart there, and the team puts a lot of energy into taking care of the kiddos.

TLE was 1 of 3 daycares on my very short list of options this summer and I was so impressed just from my tour! The director, Staci spent 45 minutes with me on my tour and answered every question I had before I could even ask it. A week later, after visiting another highly rated daycare in the area, I stopped by TLE (because I was disappointed in the other place) and Staci and Shay spent another 45 minutes with me and my daughter in their office. I knew from the minute I walked into the other daycare center, where they could barely spare 10 minutes to talk to me, that TLE was the place for our family. When we started, we inevitably had a tough few days, but on day 3, my daughter’s teacher, Ms. Leah, said to me, “I’m really noticing she does better when I walk her through the day and tell her what’s coming next”. I have so much appreciation for Ms. Leah and how much effort she put in getting to know my daughter and figuring out how to make her more comfortable. Ms. Leah and Ms. Matilda greet us every day with a smile and are genuinely happy to see us! I pretty much have a mini-conference with them every day at drop off or pick up about how she’s doing which means a lot and puts our mind at ease. Outside of her classroom, the entire staff at TLE is so friendly and Staci, Shay, and Nikki make such an effort to greet every family and every child, like they’re truly part of their family. I’m so happy we landed here where it truly feels like a village! Lastly, it should be noted that TLE has the same exact gold seal certification from DCF as the other highly rated daycares (with absurd waiting lists) in the area. I’m so happy with our choice to enroll here!
