I was eager to get my kids started and pre-paid for both of my children, unfortunately days prior to their start date, my grandmother had a stroke and I had to move across the state to be her care taker - I called the Daycare to talk to Angie (director) about getting a refund since I never used their services. She told me there were no refunds but she was going to request to corporate. Since then i've texted, called and have gotten no answers. I've also called corporate and left voicemail and have never gotten a response either. Owning my own business, just out of integrity I would've at the very minimum have a response to keep the client long term. The day that I got there I should've known, I was taking the tour and overheard a conversation between the Director and a very upset client about treatment of their daughter by the teachers, the director's response wasnt very pleasant and I shouldve gone with my gut, but now I'm here trying to get at least a response from someone. Will update if this is resolved. read more

excellent school, love everyone there. Best day care ever. This day care is been so wonderful and the care to children's is recommended.

Angie at the front desk is amazing. I know what my son is up to as much as someone can in a daycare/VPK. Our don is thriving and he always says school was fun at the end of the day. read more

I feel so fortunate to have found The Learning Experience. My son started there at 2.5 Years old. He is well-adjusted and happy. I am proud of his development in the care of Ms Rita Gonzalez and staff. They truly love and treat the children like they are their own. They do the cutest projects with the children, they teach them songs in English they take them for reading time to the library, and many other things that are wonderful for the children. I also enjoyed receiving pictures of my son daily through their TLE mobile app. Their communication with parents is excellent. I always appreciated knowing what was happening and their constant care and updates regarding the children. I recommend them wholeheartedly and I encourage anyone looking for quality childcare for your little one to check them out . read more

When my husband and I moved to the Lake Nona area, we were terrified at the idea of having to find a new school for our son to attend. We loved his previous school and had no idea what to expect here. We toured a few without much success until we stumbled on The Learning Experience. The passion and pride for the school that emanated from the person giving us the tool made us feel confident that this would be a great school and we were right. We saw our son blossom, learn so much during his VPK year and more importantly, he was proud of his accomplishments and seemed to genuinely enjoy his teacher, friends and learning. Once the pandemic happened, once again we were showed why we made such a good choice. The transparency and care the entire TLE team has been showing daily is unparalleled. Not only do I feel 100% confident that my son is safe and well cared for, everyone at the school is still smiling, being incredibly nice and wonderful to every parent. They have my full trust and we will miss this school once it's time to move on! If you are looking for a wonderful school that will care for your children as your own, with a management team that has your best interest at heart, you have found it! They are well priced, offer a great curriculum and caring teachers. Thank you to everyone for helping our little boy transform into a little man! read more

My kids loved going to this place, but I had a problem with one of the staff members Enid and she was very unprofessional. She basically kick me out of the daycare. I was paying over 500$ a week for two kid's. In the afternoon you can't find any staff members to help you. They never updated the signing sheet for my son. One day I took my son late and they told that if you don't bring him before 9 he can't come, they still kept him but ghetto gave me an attitude about it, if I'm paying 500$ a week I shouldn't be receiving any attitude. I found another place right away and took them out. In the new place having had a single problem. read more

The Learning Experience I'm writing this review to tell you about my personal experience with The Learning Experience. We enrolled our son in TLE for their summer program. We met with Mrs. Baker, the director. She was very patient and thorough with explaining and introducing the goals and curriculum of the TLE. They were the only preschool to offer a summer recreational/educational program. We had researched, read reviews and took tours of all the preschools in Lake Nona. Our son was placed in a class of students that were going to enter VPK in August. His teacher Ms. Mirian, is a patient, fair, yet firm and a very structured teacher. She's also very good at following the L.E.A.P. curriculum. What I found most impressive was the L.E.A.P Program that they utilize. The L.E.A.P. Program is a comprehensive educational program that uses workbooks, literature and technology (interactive smartboard) that covers a variety of skills like: phonics, numbers, science, math, shapes, colors, journal writing, sight words and a basic foreign language. They also have special activities throughout the year like visits from Santa, the Tooth Fairy, Cupid and service dogs. They also do fund raising for a variety of charitable causes. My son has grown academically and socially in many ways. He has learned to trace letters, he knows his numbers and shapes, he knows the sounds letters make (Phonics). He recognizes sight words. We are very happy with our decision to enroll our son and we strongly feel that TLE is preparing our son for kindergarten. They also have an app that allows the teacher and director to communicate with parents and send pictures daily of the children at work. read more

Our toddler has been here for about 4 months and I would easily recommend the place! It is very clean, professional, and the staff here really care deeply for the kids. Our son is learning a lot there too, and surprises us constantly with things we haven't taught him. The director, Hannah, really cares and both her and Clover make a point to know every parent and kid by name. They send regular updates throughout the day through their TLE mobile app and email letting us know what kind of day he's having, if he's eating well, if he's having issues, or what activities he's up to. We even get a picture or two every day showing our little monkey playing, doing art, sleeping, or eating. While all of the caregivers there are outstanding and wonderful, we have to specifically thank Mrs. Amanda in Toddler A for helping our child and us as parents transition to daycare for the first time. Trusting your first child in the arms of strangers for 8 hours is one of the scariest things we've ever done. Amanda went above and beyond by spending time listening to us talk about little things like fevers, butt rashes, and bad sleep nights like we were the only parents going through all this. She and others there have spent entire days holding my son and working one handed because he didn't want to be put down. Between Amanda, Laura, Karin, Bianca, Clover, Hannah, and the many others who care for our child, I can rest easy knowing my kid is in GREAT hands while I'm away at work, and that means a lot to me. read more

My sons just started this daycare two months ago and i can't say enough how happy and easy the transition has been! The curriculum and the staff are amazing. They pay attention to littlest details. I have dealt with previous daycares and have very high expectations when it comes to my two boys and the fact i can drop my boys off and not worry about who is watching them while my fiancé and i work makes my days a lot better! Ms. Karen, Ms Jessica are great! I wish i could remember everyone's names everyone as a whole is great! Especially the front staff and the owner! Highly recommend! read more

So I took my 1 year old son here because i loved everything about the school and he seemed to enjoy it too. I hate to give them 1 stars but I transferred my son to this daycare because his previous daycare cleanliness was awful and they charged crazy amounts. So as soon as I came to do the walk thru I explained that cleanliness is a MAJOR for me because my child health is EVERYTHING TO ME. Within his 2 week he contracted HANDS MOUTH FOOT DISEASE?!? My son has been going to daycares since he was 4 months old and he never got anything and within 2 weeks he got this, and can come back from various of things. And they didn't take any precautions for the parents or teachers after we told them that our child contracted this. I went to pick up his things from his class and his 3 teachers had ZERO knowledge that my child or any child had that in his school. Very disappointed. Unenrolled him immediately will never take him back here! Be careful your child's health is everything. read more

Went there two times to check on the facility and do a guided tour. Ended up taking son to another place due to 1) lack of empathy of attendants to both parents and kid and 2) after witnessing their most "experienced" tutor grabbing a 4-year old and calling him out with anger in the eyes just because the little boy failed to remain in line. Felt pretty bad about the boy. Such a cold environment with people who doesn't seem to love what they do. read more

My child got hurt at this school. The teacher and director were friends apparently. The director told me she not only didn't believe my daughter but wouldn't believe her OWN daughter if she said she was hurt because of her age (She just turned 5). I reported this incident to the main headquarters in southeast Florida. I should have had them investigated by child welfare. read more

This place sounds great after your 45 tour. But when you sign up and start bringing your child you will soon see all the dysfunction. Staff not as highly trained as quoted. Management is disorganized. Watch lots if people come and go. When I mentioned my child was bored nothing was done it's supposed to be state-of-the-art curriculum and teachers this is the only school my son does not want to go to. I have traveled been to a lot of places and this is definitely not what they are advertising it to be. Look elsewhere if you are looking for a great education and knowledgeable teacher. read more

My husband and I definitely recommend TLE, along with Miss Marlene. My son has only attended TLE for a year during VPK, and this preschool has been a great tool in my sons education & development. I previously had my son in another pre-school in Seminole county, which I honestly felt we were just paying for him to be watched and do crafts. At TLE I have seen a huge difference in my child's personality, expressive behavior, and discipline. He has blossomed beautifully before our eyes and we noticed growth within the first few months. I honestly feel confident with him transitioning to Kindergarten. He has been setup to be successful. I can't say enough about the job Miss Marlene has done with his development. She has always kept us in the loop with his progress and the curriculum was amazing. Not only are we sad to leave, but so is our son. He truly enjoyed his time here and that was important. read more

We moved to Lake Nona last February and we started to look for a school for our 3 year old son. We find TLE and we thought it was a good decision.. The beginning was good and everything was ok with the school (the program is excellent, the child care is awesome, and so on).. After some months, we started to get a lot of complaints and reports about our son (sometimes in a daily basis), we start to think to move our son out of school. Asking to the teachers, we realized that they are not satisfied with how Director Hannah manages School, they stated she makes a lot of movements in classrooms and it is not good for the kids.. So, we decide to take our son from school and notified Ms Hannah about the decision. She only said "Ok".. She never asked the reason why we took this decision, never meet us to talk about this and look for a way to stay with them, basically she did not care having us in the school. My wife was so upset for this and wrote a review indicating what happened with director Hannah.. For our surprise, director Hannah called us in an rude mood asking the reason why we left the Yelp review. We stated this is the reason of sites like Yelp, so anyone can freely left a comment to help others in a community.. She said us via phone "If you don't remove the review right now your son is expelled from my school" We went back to school to pick up our son because she just expelled him.. And said in her face that she is UNPROFESSIONAL for acting the way she did.. She also threated me to call the police if I did not take my son and quit now... At the end of the day, we found another school for our son, very close to TLE in lake Nona, where the management personnel is very kind and careful with parents and kids. It's a shame that 1 person can spoil an entire school and for us, Ms Hannah should be out of this place. Hope this can help others parents when decide for a place where your kids expend the entire day.. Rafael Diaz read more

I have been very pleased with the care that my child receives day in and day out. Our goal when searching for a day care center was to find a group of people that we could trust. That goal has been achieved. Our child is happy when we pick him up. That is what is important. Your team is professional and courteous. In fact, I don't know how you guys do it! read more

Am so glad that I had my little boy at the learning experience we really felt a meaning of family ,they are so helpful and specialy miss Hana she is the right person at the right place we so thankful for her and all the stuff there read more

I Do NOT Recomend it at ALL!! , Unfortunately I had a Terrible experience at The learning experience with my Child few weeks ago.. Looks great but it's NOT what it looks like.. read more

My son Aryan just graduated from VPK from this excellent preschool. He had attended preschool before but his teachers never adviced me on how to work on him . As soon as he joined Miss Marlene talked to me and directed me on how to help Aryan academically. Miss Marlene is the most amazing teacher that I have ever come across. I would like to give her full credit for aryans development .besides that Hannah (the director) is a sweetheart , very helpful and she really cares about the kids. My younger daughter Myra goes to this excellent center too. Thank you. You guys are awesome read more

I did posted my comment about this school last week and when the director read it, she called me and basically let my sister know that if we do not remove the comment out of yelp, my nephew will be out of the school same day !!! We had to pick him up right away and then she was being so rude and dramatic she also was saying she will call the policy. PLEASE PARENTS dont bring your children to this school where director doesn't even know how to deal and accept a bad review on yelp!!!!!!!!! Unqualified school, do not recommend it!! Too expensive and there is not a teacher on my nephew class room, just assistants. Also Director do a lot of changes on children's class rooms when the kids are already comfortable with his actual teacher/assistant. read more

Just horrible, rip off place, the head never emailed me back. They raised the price at one point without a head up. My kid is another school, he's also happier there. read more

Just wanted to share my experience as a fellow Yelper here and as as a mother of a 2,4 and 6 year old. We cannot thank TLE enough! We are new to the state and the Lake Nona area and after moving over 1,000 miles from home finding the right city and school for our children was on the list of top priorities. We moved here in May and were warmly greeted by Hannah and Stacy at TLE. They gave us a tour and explained the age groups the curriculum plans, the facility, pricing and multiple discounts and options available for us at the school ,which was very kind and helpful since I explained we are on a very tight budget. As a concerned parent and past educator ( 5 years teaching early childhood education) I did my due diligence. I research and toured other facilities in the area and reviewed their curriculum plans, noted interactions in the classrooms during my tours, pricing and asked other parents in the meet up moms groups questions. I quickly realized that this school exceeded expectations , the environment was warm and inviting and Hannah and Stacy were extremely accommodating and helpful given our financial situation( something the other schools didn't even offer).In the past few months here I was able to see that the teachers and staff here live for this school ( they go above and beyond the call of duty)they don't treat this as an average job that just pays the bills, and these kids are amazing they are thriving. You can see the change in them from the very first day of school where many are shy or even upset because they have never been in a school setting to now they are on a structured schedule they are socializing and above all are blossoming. I am an actively involved parent I put my children first on the top list of priorities because they are our future leaders and we are their role models. If we could all take the time to get to know the school the teachers and the students you will be amazed at what they are doing here. It saddens me to see the previous comment on here because it truly is a great school and I trust them with my children any day of the week. In the end that post might hurt the TLE staffs feelings and Yelp rating but that's just a post from an adult who is clearly upset over something else they are probably not sharing. Also, in regards to pricing ..I will again add if you live or work in the area you should be able to afford a high quality education for your child if not maybe you might have to look outside of Lake Nona because I researched the rates and they are almost identical. Honestly no reputable business would ever do what they are claiming that's ridiculous especially one that cares about their reputation their students and families. That is all for now fellow Yelpers happy yelping!! read more
