About the Provider

Description: The Learning Experience enhances the lives of children ages 6 weeks to 5 years. In each contemporary, colorful building children learn in a fun fashion starting with sign language for infants through preschool, technology, early literacy, math, sciences, music, theater, creative arts, dance, physical fitness, nutrition, etiquette and much more. Graduates of TLE are more than prepared to enter Kindergarten and first grade. All the curriculum is proprietary and has been designed, written and published especially for TLE children. At The Learning Experience early learning is an art. We believe that knowledge is like the sky, never ending. Parents dream of the best for their children and at TLE their dreams become reality making those important first years creative, productive, happy and most importantly filled with lots of love.

TLE at Bayside Review 

(I wrote this on September 25,2018, and i forgot to post it)

 I got an interview about 2 weeks ago and It was set at 11:00am but wasn’t seen till about 11:45. I got the job and was told I would be an assistant teacher in the twaddler room. I had to fill out many forms which included medical forms of course. Ive worked at other early education centers in the past and it was standard to get your medical records in before engaging with children and beginning work. So I assumed this much for this center, This was not the case. They asked me to start immediately and as I began working I realized that medical records were the least of their worries which is quite dangerous for children as flu season is approaching. I was not in the twaddler classroom for long until they starting making me float around which isn’t what I signed up for, however this made me realize the real problems of this center. They requested for me to go from classroom to classroom while i had no idea where to go because i was not given a tour before hand. I also noticed how little food they had for the kids. I was told not to ask the kitchen for any extra food because they didn’t have any. The teacher i was working with would hide crackers and snacks in the cabinet in case the kids got hungry. This place wasn’t pleasant to work at, the some of the staff was hard to warm up to and the director didn’t seem to care for the kids or the staff. I was lied to about my position, i wasnt told when i would be getting paid, i did not receive a handbook, or any other information for the job i was, for lack of a better work thrown into the classroom. Soon after, I had a family matter that effected my schedule and i spoke with the director. She said she would speak to the scheduling person and would get back to me. When i spoke to the person in charge of scheduling she was confused and i could tell they didn’t not speak, they she called the director on the phone and relayed to me she said she couldn’t work with my schedule that i had wanted, (off on Mondays only for about 3 weeks) I figured something out regarding my personal matter however i had to take a day off. Still being new and on probation i knew it wouldn’t be easy to talk to the director but I thought she would be understanding at least. Instead she took me off the payroll and wanted a meeting with me the next day. Because i had to deal with a personal matter. I was shocked. I quit the next day. I didn’t even want to speak to her after how heartless she was to my situation. All in all do not work at this center and do not send your kids there !!!!
