From the moment my husband and I walked into TLE of Wall we were made to feel welcome! We took a tour during the schools Trunk or Treat event and it was great to see the participation by all the families and staff! We were shown the facility and they explained what we could expect for Ryan coming in as an infant. I was so impressed at the curriculum in place, even for a newborn! I also really appreciated the attention to detail with keeping the school clean and safe!
Each person in TLE of Wall is dedicated to every child! From the cheery “Good Morning” to blowing of kisses when we leave at the end of the day, I know my son is in a safe and nurturing place! It didn’t really hit me till he actually started and I began to see his daily logs! His day is packed with encouraged curiosity in a safe environment. Every part of his development is exercised!
Communication is amazing between teachers, directors and parents! Not one day goes by that I don’t get all of my questions or concerns addressed quickly, whether it be in person, via email or on the phone! TLE of Wall is so accessible!
We found out later that my son has allergies and everyone has been wonderful and making sure Ryan has everything he needs and if there are any issues I am contacted immediately! Even when there are emergencies (life happens) TLE of Wall rises to the crisis and swiftly jumps to action. Not only did they ensure the safety and wellbeing of Ryan but they knew just what to do for a worried Mommy as well!!!
I am so grateful to have found TLE of Wall. I think the best way to sum up our experience is, Ryan is cared for by FAMILY!!!
I couldn't imagine sending my son anywhere else. I visited 6 daycare facilities before choosing TLE in Wall, ranging from an in home private daycare to a corporate franchise, like TLE. I was extremely impressed by TLE and how friendly everyone is and how extremely clean it is! I was 6 months pregnant with my son the day that I toured TLE and signed the paperwork that week. When I walked out, I knew it was the right place. Ms. Stacey and Ms. Jami are two of the nicest, friendliest, patient, and flexible people I know. As I said before I signed the paperwork at 6 months pregnant to have my son start at 6 months old. My circumstances changed and I was able to keep my son home until he was 18 months. I kept calling Ms. Stacey and letting her know about the change in plans and she couldn't have been more understanding and accommodating. My son has been at TLE for 18 months now; he just had his 3rd birthday. He has been in 3 different rooms and has had about 8 different teachers. There hasn't been one teacher that he hasn't loved. I feel so comfortable leaving him with the teachers and staff and that is invaluable. Each day you get a sheet with what your child ate, the activities of the day, his/her mood, when he/she went to the bathroom and what sign language sign(s) they are working on. It is really helpful to talk to my son at the end of the day. Instead of saying "What did you do in school today?", I can say "What song did you sing with the smart board today?" or "How many apples did you use to make the red apple stamps during art?". It makes it much more interactive. If you live in the area and are in the market for a daycare, please do yourself a favor and stop in for a tour. It will be worth your time!!!
My daughter started preschool in July 2014 after her previous daycare closed. Like any other working mom, we try to do our best to find a daycare where our kids can grow emotionally, socially and academically in a well-cared for environment. The staff and teachers at the TLE in wall has me that criteria if not more. I thank Stacey, Jami and all the staff for ensuring that my daughter enjoys going to preschool everyday. She's learning so much, from sign language to spanish to improving her fine motor skills. Its amazing. From Day 1 they showed that they cared for my daughter and it just felt like the right place for her. I guess you could call it a a mother's instinct. I'm so glad I made that decision. Please stop by and check out the place, you'll love it.
I have been in another facility and had home care providers (alot of$$). My family is very happy with TLE Wall. Although each facility is locally owned, they are backed by a strong franchise focused on learning, effective evaluations, developmental plans and technology that grows with the child. The staff, teachers and curriculum are what keep me and my 3 kids happy, focused and developmentally on track if not ahead. Check out TLE Wall if you are in the area. I highly recommend it.
