Ok 2 full months at this school and I still love it just as much as I did on day 1! It is amazing when your 2.5 yr old doesn't cry when you drop him off. In these 2 months he's never cried. More importantly he is recognizing numbers and all the colors. He's speaking in sentences. He's grown in leaps and bounds over these two months and I am sooo happy I placed him in this school. I visited a few learning experiences in the area and this even though is a little bit of a drive for me is really a great school. Thank you Mr. sunny, Mr. Nico and Ms. Amanda :) read more

I am so beyond grateful for this amazing daycare! I had just put my daughter in this daycare a couple of months ago and she was delayed in her speech and this daycare has helped so much with that, she is finally starting to speak. I had her at a different daycare before and they were absolutely horrible and didn't take proper care of my daughter and since i brought her to the learning Experience there has been such a difference in her attitude, learning and other cognitive skills and im just so happy with how much they pay attention to all the kids needs. I absolutely love this daycare and so does my daughter ! read more

Our son has been attending this TLE location for about 2 months. The teachers and staff made us feel welcomed and secured to move forward with enrollment. The teachers have been consistent, nurturing and understanding with the transition. We have noticed a big improvement in his social and communication skills. The director, Ms. Trish and assistant director, Mr. Nico email weekly news and are always a phone call away when you need them. The attentiveness and professionalism that our family has experienced is like no other and you won't be disappointed. read more

My daughter attended school here for two years. Both years I was impressed by how much she learned and grew! As a teacher myself, I'm quite particular when it comes to my daughter's education and TLE offers a great curricula that is taught in a fun, caring way that encourages students to grow. It was also refreshing that the curricula covered more than the basics...my daughter is an expert on charitable work as well, since each month a new charity is brought to life! Beyond the curricula, I must also emphasize that all the staff, especially the managers & teachers make sure that every child's needs are met. They were great with giving my daughter her inhaler and if I ever had any type of concern, they were responsive and proactive. I should also mention that my daughter loved visiting the playground or "Make Believe" each day. In the summer, waterplay was a lot of fun as well! My daughter is overly prepared for kindergarten and I will miss her TLE Family incredibly! I recommend them without reservation! Ps-they offer a great "working families" discount too! read more

TLE in Matawan is an amazing school. Our son loves it and he learns so much-the teachers and staff are wonderful and we could not be happier with how well he is doing :) read more

Our family has been using TLE for 5 years now. My son started as an infant and will be "graduating" from Pre-K this year. I was always pleased with the care he received, but now that he is in the pre-school program I'm amazed by what he's learning. He is starting to read and loves school. My daughter just started there and is also having an amazing experience. I cannot sing the praises of TLE enough. read more

I am thrilled to write about The Learning Experience of Matawan. I have sent my daughter there for 3 years, so I feel that I know the school very well. When I first sent my daughter to daycare at one year old, we chose one a little closer to home and that was a huge mistake. My husband and I pulled her out of the school after 6 weeks. I was disgusted with daycare and didn't want to send my daughter to another one. However, then we found The Learning Experience of Matawan and my fears vanished. I could tell right away that The Learning Experience of Matawan was a loving and nurturing environment, and I wasn't wrong. After my last daycare experience, I would call TLE every day to check on my daughter, and they were reassuring and kind to me. I could see the difference in my daughter compared to the other school. When I picked her up from the other school, she would cry. When I picked her up from The Learning Experience of Matawan, she was smiling and happy. One of the huge reasons is because of the staff. The staff are always bubbly, happy, kind, caring, and fun. They always greet children and parents as they enter the building. My daughter runs up to her past and present teachers for hugs. As a mother, I want my daughter to feel encouraged, nurtured, and loved, and she receives that everyday at TLE-Matawan. The administration is no exception. They are always visible and available. I have recently had surgery, and have gone out of their way to help my family and I. As someone who works in public education, I see the difference that The Learning Experience of Matawan makes with each child. They provide an excellent curriculum that facilitates growth in all educational areas. I am so impressed with all the knowledge my daugher possesses. I love the enrichment education she has received. This includes the L.E.A.P. Curriculum (Learning Experience Academic Program). My daugher has so much fun with the L.E.A.P. Interactive boards that use touch-screen technology and interactive learning games to further enhance her education. My daughter has learned sign language, phonics, foreign language, manners and etiquette, physical fitness, and philanthropy which teaches children the value of selflessness and giving. I love all the charity work they do at TLE, including working with Make-A-Wish, helping families in need, breast cancer, and more. Every month they have a charity or a philanthropy giving event. I am impressed with their enrichment kit programs that are provided extra with no additional cost. My daughter has learned music, math, science, dance, Yoga, performing arts, and physical fitness and is able to take home her kit at the end of the session. She has received kits in theater, dance, Yoga, music, and more! As someone who has a strong appreciation for the arts, I love this extra education. Once my daughter was potty trained, she was able to go into Make Believe Boulevard®, a miniature Main Street, USA. I love this interactive classroom designed to develop and expand socio-dramatic play amongst children. As an occupational therapist who works with children, working on these skills are very important to me. Also, as a pediatric OT, I love how TLE Matawan facilitates various developmental skills, such as speech, fine motor, visual perceptual, visual motor, and gross motor skills. The staff assesses these skills to ensure developmental progression. When my daughter received early intervention speech therapy, the teachers worked with the speech therapist at the daycare to increase her speech. We saw tremendous improvement with everyone in her life on the "same page" and using the techniques. As a working mom, I love that I can bring my daughter to TLE-Matawan and I know that she will be provided with a healthy lunch! I don't have to worry about making her lunch everyday. My daughter loves the lunch that is provided at TLE-Matawan. She often will ask for seconds and thirds! I highly recommend The Learning Experience of Matawan. There is no place I would rather bring my daughter everyday. I feel truly blessed that my daughter has them in her life. Thank you. read more

I had my daughter here I pulled her out within months after I was hoaxed into believing that things would change. It only got worse. i was appalled at the staff turnover here. There are always new hires due to their teachers leaving. They can't keep staff and have had multiple directors that come and go as well. I have witnessed an uncountable amount of staff members leaving. Children need consistency and structure. There was none here. I was intrigued by their curriculum until I realized it's not enforced entirely. there were many negative reviews all with the same concerns of teacher and directors leaving, lack of supervision and the owner belittling staff in front of parents. Please consider all of the negative reviews on this place prior to being interested. There are 20+ negatives reviews. read more

I have sent my child to The Learning Experience in Matawan for 3 years. I could not imagine sending her any where else. My child loves to go to school, and that is very important to instill a love of learning before entering elementary school. She has gained so much knowledge, I know she will be ahead of the game when she does begin Kindergarten. The staff and administration are top notch. I am deeply impressed with their academic programs, daily summer camp activities, and monthly fundraising events. This daycare/school exceeds my expectations. Therefore, I highly recommend The Learning Experience of Matawan. read more

Very impressed with this establishment. I personally do not have kids of my own but one of my nephews has graduated the kindergarten program and the other is still enrolled. I am thoroughly impressed with the reading level of my older nephew after he graduated their kindergarten program, the little one is always surprising me with new things that he learns. From what I can tell both of my nephews love this school and look forward to seeing their teachers and playing with their friends. My sister is very happy as well, she isn't easily impressed and did a lot of shopping around before choosing the Learning Experience but now she's confident she made the right choice. I have been there my self to pick up my nephews before and it looks like a school I would have loved going to in my youth. I suggest this daycare to everyone I know, it is definitely worth giving a shot. read more
