Reviews of The Learning Experience (Kindergarten)

Pavan Patel

As a kid, I went to the Learning Experience and it was an amazing (experience), see what I did there. But moving on the teachers were amazing and the teachers are very interactive with the kids. Plus there are many things to do to entertain the kids. I would definitely recommend sending your kids there. They are very kind people.

I was extremely nervous when I signed up my 3yro for day care. I had no idea what to expect. But I cannot explain how great TLE has been in eliminating my apprehension. My daughter started this past summer and they had different activities/themes every week. Most importantly, my baby adores her teachers. She adapted quickly- within the 1st day!! She cried the first day as expected but was eager to go back the next day and didn't even want to come home the following day. I couldn't be happier with the decision I have made. Thank you TLE!

Both my kids are at this center and i absolutely love this place. I trust them completely for everything that they do for my kids. The management and teachers are amazing. Not one thing that i want to change about this place. Thank you for the love and care you provide to all the kids.

I enrolled my daughter here about a year and half ago and after coming from 2 poorly run previous daycare centers and I am pleased to say it was a good change. I was particularly pleased to see the professionalism the owner and staff exhibit. Additionally, the center is well-maintained and clean with kid-friendly decor. The teachers are another one of its greatest assets. They all have shown a genuine interest in children and in my child specifically and have detailed feedback on how your child is doing in all areas appropriate to their age. I highly recommend this daycare center to others.

I am glad that we chose TLE. The place is really clean. At the front desk, they always greet you cheerfully and always ready to help. For kids they incorporate various levels of education. My child has learned so much and is well prepared for kindergarten. The teachers are kind and understanding and know their jobs well.

I've had a great experience with this center. I had my two daughters attend in the past 5 years and would definitely recommend them. The staff was always professional and caring. Office staff and teachers were always available and approachable willing to help.

The teachers at the learning experience North Brunswick are very caring and attentive to details. The management is very professional and they follow up on the well being of the students. They have a great curriculum starting from infant age, from arts, to reading, to sign language and lots of other activities that are very enriching for the kids.

Its a Great school and it has some special teachers who really take care of the kids and make sure the time spent at school is full of fun and learning !!

(While this is a well-deserved five-star review, please note the concerns I discuss below about the ratios in the Prepper classroom) Our son received great, loving care at TLE, first in North Brunswick and then, after we relocated, in Piscataway. Both branches are owned by the same family and their operations are closely intertwined, and they made the move very easy. My review here is based on our son’s care in the infant room at North Brunswick (from 3 months of age to 15 months) and then the toddler, twaddler, and prepper rooms in Piscataway (15-24 months, 24-29 months, and 29-33 months, respectively). We found these two TLEs to be wonderful places, filled with loving carers who did their best to accommodate parents and discover how to help the kids thrive. As one example: we used cloth diapers with our son, and despite never having done so before, the staff agreed to use them in school (they followed the exact same 14-step diaper change protocol they always use, but put the dirty diapers in a bag we gave them instead of the trash). As another example, when our son was going through various phases (the “mine” phase, for instance), the staff not only reassured us that it was all normal, but also gave us strategies for how they’d succeeded in overcoming the issues in school, which we could then use at home. Our son learned so much—sign language, social skills, manners, songs, games, how to eat sensibly (the teachers in the infant room got him to drink out of a bottle and then a sippy cup when no one else could!). Not to mention numbers (in English and Spanish!) and words and shapes and all sorts of other stuff. And the variety of activities was delightful (yoga, music, and the truly delightful “Make-Believe Boulevard”). TLE was also wonderfully flexible: when a family health crisis meant I needed my son to start daycare earlier than contracted, they enrolled him early. When we got stuck in terrible traffic and had to pick him up late, the ladies stayed with him and were very understanding. The App was also awesome: I loved getting updates throughout the day (sometimes with pictures!) about what my son was doing. We loved our time at TLE, up until our son moved into the Prepper classroom. The teachers were still outstanding, but there were not enough of them. In the infant classroom, the ratio was 4 children to 1 carer. In the Toddler classroom it was 5-1. In the Twaddler classroom, it was 6-1. All good. But when he moved up to the Prepper classroom, the ratio went up to 10-1. And the kids in this classroom are supposed to be working on potty training and the rudiments of writing (so they sit and do workbooks a few times every day). So in practice, you had ten kids sitting around a table watching one of their classmates work with the teacher on a workbook, while the other teacher took the kids to the bathroom or did another activity. Our son had a rough transition: about a month of being emotionally exhausted in the evenings because he’d had to sit still so much during the day, we think. While the situation has since been ameliorated with the addition of a third permanent teacher to the Prepper classroom (yay!), this change occurred about three months after I and other parents expressed our concerns, and in the meantime, we found a non-profit daycare (through Rutgers’ Psychology program) that has 5-1 ratios along with salaried staff who have benefits, and it is about $100/month cheaper. Once again, we have had a wonderful experience at the TLE, and are grateful for the loving care our son has received. The staff are wonderfully patient and good-hearted and knowledgeable, and our whole family will miss them, even as we are excited about the lower ratios at his new school.

This school is amazing my daughter Jolena has learned so much from the teachers and is advancing so fast. I will be recommending this school to all my friends with children.

Diane Ielmini

My older daughter has been going to the school for 4 years, right around when they first opened. We now have my younger daughter going there as well. We love how friendly and caring the staff is to your needs. The teachers love the students and my kids love the teachers. My kids never fail to impress me with what they learn there. Every day they come home from school they say words or talk about things that shock me because I didn't know they learned that. Would definitely recommend to my friends. Diane Ielmini

Stephanie Koltas

Our daughter has been cared for by TLE since she was 6 months old. She is now 7 and up until we moved out of town last month, TLE has been her sole provider. We have been with the center pretty much since it opened and can honestly say, that we made the right choice in entrusting our daughter’s care to the staff and administrators there. From nursery, to summer camps, to pre-k to pre and post care, our daughter has been through all their program offerings and I couldn’t be more pleased with the level of care, cleanliness and love that the center has consistently provided to us over the years. All the staff and teachers are great; however, some certainly stand out more than others. All in all, my husband and I feel that the program and all that TLE offers is far superior than similar programs offered in town. Now we are in a new town we can see the difference. Our new daycare is very nice don’t get me wrong, but to me that is just brick and mortar… it’s the staff that makes the difference and now being away from TLE I can really appreciate how wonderful the staff was. On the day that we left, there were tears shed (by both a child and grown adults) that is how much TLE has become a family to us. Ms. Leah, especially has been amazing. She has been with us since she we toured TLE 7 years ago, she genuinely cares about the kids and I think their parents too! She has gone through great lengths to ensure that any issue ( there were not many) were addressed to our satisfaction. We are big on communication and we felt that there was adequate communication on any given day. For those who are reading this and are debating whether to send your child to TLE or another, go to TLE, choose TLE you will be happy that you did. Best Regards, Stephanie and Mike Koltas AKA Hope's parents

As a first time mother, I was hesitant about putting my son in daycare even when he was 10 months old. Putting him at The Learning Experience in North Brunswick was the best decision I could have made! The owners and staff are extremely friendly and love their jobs. They love the children and care for them as though they are their own! The facility is extremely clean and that is rare to find in most daycares. I got updates about everything on the app and I also received pictures so I could see what my son is doing even though I’m not there. The only reason I took him out was because summer is starting and I’m going to be home with him. Saying goodbye to the staff was sad and I even feel bad about taking him out because he had such a great time there. I was always against daycare but after seeing this place, I wish I could keep sending him there.

One of the best decisions we made is to send our daughter to TLE, North Brunswick. Since it was her first daycare ever, we were very happy as they handled her & made her comfortable. The management & teachers are all amazing. Everyday she comes home learning something new.Thank you to the whole team of TLE for doing such a wonderful job. Definitely, I would recommend TLE of North Brunswick. Thanks!

My almost 5 yo daughter has been going to the TLE North Brunswick since she was 8 months old. We did our research and visited different centers and TLE was the one that stood out the most for us. They have wonderful teachers and a curriculum where kids can excel and learn every single day. My daughter feels at home when she is at TLE, and I feel peace of mind having her there because I know that she is in the best hands! Soon it will be time for our youngest to go to daycare and there is no doubt that he is going to TLE!

Sagar S

Both of our sons have gone to this TLE location. Our older son was there since age 2 and graduated this past summer. Our younger son has been there since he was 4 months old. They both absolutely love it! We moved about 6 months ago and reluctantly took our younger son out and enrolled him in another TLE, and it just wasn't the same. After about 1-2 months, we decided to put him back in the North Brunswick TLE, despite the fact that its a bit out of way, and it was probably the best decisiion we made! All the teachers are great and were so excited to see him again! The management team has always been outstanding and willing to work with us and help in any way possible. Our older son is now in kindergarten, and we feel he is so well prepared, thanks to the staff at TLE! And our younger one is not far behind! We would highly recommend this TLE to anyone!

You left the feedback: Excellent Day Care. My daughter has been going here for the past 2 years.Their LEAP program is really good. She is going to K this year and ready for it.(Based on the assessment done by the asst principal)

I absolutely loved the care my son received from TLE-North Brunswick. My son attended from 3 months to 15 months -- and only stopped attending because I had a second child and decided to stay home with them. I was very confident with his safety and security. The facility is clean, very bright and apt for learning and development. The teachers and staff are friendly and caring and work with you to cater to your child's specific needs and development. My son's biggest challenges at the time were eczema and trouble with eating. The staff worked with me to overly moisturizer him -at my request- and tried different techniques to encourage him to eat. Additionally, my son had an emergency situation and they responded with an "all hands on deck" approach to ensure his safety and to support me. To this day, people constantly remark about how advanced my son is and I believe that TLE and their staff have a lot to do with it. My only negative comment (and reason for 4 out of 5 stars and not all 5) is that I was hoping to receive an employee discount, as marketed by my HR department. They did not participate in that program, they did offer me a different (lesser) promotion. Overall, when my budget permits, I will re-enroll my son and his baby sister.

My twins Love their school!!! They are very fond of their teachers and learning so much from them everyday. We have nothing to worry about once they have been dropped to daycare/school as we know they are in good hands...The school looks well maintained and super organized. If you are looking for a daycare/school for your little one, this is where your child must go. Keep doing the great work.

Roxanne S

The Learning Experience has been great for my son. He has been going there since he was 2 years old and has learned so much. I am amazed at the things he comes home and says that he has learned in school. He is already reading and is definitely prepared for Kindergarten in the fall.

Sunil Shetty

As a parent point of view i say the best and safe place to send your kids, they have a friendly staff who take care and handle the kids really well.

Mahesh Rajan

We have been sending our 3 children here for the last 7 years. I cant believe that this is the last week we will be coming here since our littlest is graduating. I cannot say enough good things about this place. The teachers, staff and everyone else are amazing. All 3 of my kids could read before kindergarten but even more importantly they have learned great values and we have built some amazing friendships. I would recommend this place to everyone who wants their child to learn, have fun and most importantly be safe.

Our family recently relocated to the area from NYC and visited many preschools/daycares in the area. However, we decided to enroll our children (ages 2 and 4) in this school after feeling confident that they would be embraced and spend their days in great learning environment. The teachers and staff have all been very nice and accommodating not just to our children but to us as a family. This is also our first experience where the staff has been sensitive to the food allergies our 4-year old has and all the concerns we had as parents. Therefore, we are happy with the school and our children have grown to really enjoy going every day. We are grateful for the professionalism and flexibility of the administration, staff, and teachers there and look forward to a continued relationship. After experiencing good NYC daycare centers in the past for our children, I can confidently say this has been the best experience thus far and give this school a 5-star rating for taking seriously the concerns of the parents as well as the children daily, maintaining a secure & clean environment, and seeking to prepare our children for academic success. So far so good!

TLE of North Brunswick is an awesome experience for the children and the parents. The staff is amazing! Always friendly and respectful. You are greeted every morning with a smile and a HELLO. I love it!!! The facility is consistently clean and never has an odor. I've had a child attend TLE over 6 years ago and at that time, it was excellent. I have recently returned with an infant, and it was such a great feeling to return to TLE and see that many of same loving people are still there. It's like we never left. LOL. What a great place. It is safe, clean, comfortable and the lines of communication are always open.

hardeep virdi

This TLE is the absolute best. Both my boys have been going here since 2 years of age . The teachers are amazing and caring and the management treat you like family . I was so sad to leave. The only reason I had to leave was because they did not have a program for older children, my elder son was 9 when we had to leave. I would recommend this daycare to everyone. This is most definitely the smart way forward when stepping into early learning for your child. My sons loved it here so much they really miss it.

Aparna Pushkarna

I am sending my daughter for 2.5 years now. Extremely satisfied and happy with them. Supportive management. Front staff and teachers are good and listen to your concerns. So happy with my decision to send my daughter there. I would highly recommend them.

Brittany Elton

Both of my daughters attend TLE and we love it. Our 4year old has grown tremendously. She is now reading and writing. We couldnt ask for a better program. They use a learning board and our daughter enjoys learning and going to school. Also their indoor playroom is amazing!

Jose Aramis Taveras

Great place and great people! My duahter loves it and we love it.

Ma. V

My oldest son has been attending this daycare for almost 8 months and he loves his teachers and is always excited to come home and tell us about all his friends and what he learned. My youngest (infant) son was enrolled a few months ago and I already see he's learning a lot as well. I like that there's a structured curriculum and daily reports for each day's lessons for each age group. The staff and teachers have always been caring and open with communicating with us. This was really most important to my husband and I (as working parents) when choosing a daycare and we're very happy we chose to enroll our children here.

Maria Sousa

Love TLE in North Brunswick !! The teachers are amazing and the staff is always so accommodating. The school is always clean and neat . I love all of the activities and theme days at TLE. Best decision ever to switch our son to TLE, only regret is not doing it sooner. Starting with Mrs Leah, Mrs Sheetal, Mrs Payal and Mrs Lindsey they are always going above and beyond to satisfy the parents and children's needs. Not to mention my son's previous teacher Mrs Adrianne, she is so caring and loving and gives 100% to her students and makes every effort to ensure all the children are taught in a profesional way. I personally want to thank The early morning crew, Mrs Alana Miss Julia Ms Annie for always making sure my son is good content and happy. That is what really makes a BIG difference. Thank you ALL for your hard work, is very well appreciated

This is a great day care center. The classrooms are not crowded. The teachers are very nice. Highly recommend.

Thomas Cuffe

I am so glad we chose TLE. Looking for Day Care was a scary thing. All the places we want to, we just kept asking “Is this the right place for us?” We immediately knew TLE was that place. Mrs. Lindsey was so passionate about how the center worked and the programs they use to help develop the minds of the children. She spoke with heart and genuine enthusiasm. It became a no brainer for us, so we enrolled our daughter. What we got over the next few years was just amazing. All the teachers there love these kids so much and do an incredible job teaching them. I am sometimes amazed at what my daughter knows. I have no doubt she is ready for kindergarten. If I had to do everything over again I would pick TLE every single time. The only thing I would do different is enroll my daughter sooner. Anyone reading this reviews owes it to themselves to come check this center out. You will not be disappointed. As my daughter departs for school, I know I for one will miss TLE and I know she will miss all the teachers that have loved her and taken care of her. For all the people at the center that will see this review, I say THANK YOU EVERYTHING.

My son has been going to this school from January he enjoys and looks forward to go to the school everyday. We are happy that he is learning and talking a lot after he started going to school. There is a good mix of academics and activities. The teachers are affectionate with the children and keep encouraging the children.

Jennifer Marcantonio

My daughter started as and infant in March this year and recently moved to the toddler room. We are so excited for the vocabulary she has gained from The Learning Experience! This school is no ordinary daycare, they provide fun filled activities for children year round!

Ashwini Desai Raibagi

I've had my daughter at the TLE North Brunswick for over 2 years now. The owners are very involved and always ready to listen and work with parents. The environment and staff is great, it is a very positive environment filled with energy and thus both the children and the parents love the place. Another thing that I find commendable is that they are very cognizant about not alarming parents unnecessarily so they won't call unless it is a real real emergency. I find that level of maturity of staff extremely reassuring. Would highly recommend the TLE North Brunswick to anybody looking for a wonderful place to care for their children. "

Garan Deed

My son goes to The Learning Experience & ever since I did a transfer I have been very happy with the whole experience. The faculty is very friendly. The owners are so polite. And the Director she is always so pleasant. The teachers Miss Ingrid, Miss Tiana and Miss Dawn, Miss Sarah they have been so wonderful throughout the whole drop off pick up experience. It is a lot more easier when you know that your child is in a great environment. I highly recommend The Learning Experience of North Brunswick.

We love this school ! It teaches kids in interesting and fun way.

Suha Lingam

My daughter was enrolled for about a year from 17 months onwards before we had to move out of state. After moving is when I realized how good we had it at TLE. The owners father-daughter duo do such a good job of making the children feel at home and cultivate a culture of safety, love and wellbeing. The curriculum is fantastic - my daughter has been out of TLE for many months now and she hasn't learned much more after that. Curriculum is well rounded and intensive enough to keep the children stimulated and challenged no matter their level. Teachers are compassionate yet instill good discipline. My daughter had a good time and looked forward to going to school to be with her caring teachers and friends.

Vanessa Lalitte

My son, Aiden, spent his Pre-K year and summer camp (2017 - 2018) at TLE - North Brunswick and had a truly memorable and remarkable learning experience. The management team is extremely professional, friendly and caring. Ms. Payal, Ms. Sheetal, Ms. Leah (Director), Ms. Linsey (Asst. Director) and Ms. Alanna have all left a positive impact on Aiden, my husband and me. This team of management and administrators are exceptional in providing a warm, caring environment not only for the children, but also, from my observation, the teachers and parents too. Aiden's Pre-K teacher, Ms. Annie Conti (PK-2B), was exceptional. She created an environment that was engaging and personable. Aiden truly loved her. Ms. Natalie from PK-2A is also a very well rounded and caring teacher. As a matter-of fact, all the teachers that Aiden interacted with were superb! I wish I had found out about TLE North Brunswick prior to August 2017 as my son would have had an early start in a great establishment. The curriculum is excellent. TLE and TLE North Brunswick provide a great learning environment for children. I can't stop speaking of TLE North Brunswick. Every chance I get, especially at the Playground, I am talking to parents about them.

Surinder Singh

One of the best preschool that I have come across till date. The school property is very well maintained and secured for kids of all age group. The staff is excellent in taking care of the kids as well in conversation with their parents. I am sure they would have gone through a stringent selection process. Truly appreciate the efforts of all staff members and the management.

Talisa Butler

I love this place! My son has been going here for two years and he has learned so much! Everyday he comes home with new knowledge; he knows Spanish, yoga, state birds and flowers, facts about different Spanish-speaking countries, he's reading, doing math, science, etc. The Learning Experience has not only prepared him for kindergarten, but they have helped instill in him a life long love of learning.

Darren Jenkins

Friendly staff and clean center. Nice indoor play area.

Brijesh Patel

My 3 boys went to this day care and this is the best day care so far we came across. Owner Mr. Deepak, Ms. Payal and Ms. Sheetal always there to make sure you get best service and your child get best education. You always feel like you dropping your kids to family. Price is good as well compare to other day care in this area.

R Daphney Magee

The staff at this center is friendly and caring!! The teachers are creative and excellent in engaging the children in interesting ways to foster learning and knowledge retention. I am amazed with how much my 5yo has learned in over a year she has been with the center over her last school. I also have an infant that attends the school and I can see he is developing well in their care. I highly recommend this school for your little ones. They will be in safe hands!!
