By catering to a child’s every need, The Learning Experience has established itself as much more than a normal, everyday child care center. The center is part of a larger franchise system that has been built on more than three decades of experience in providing children with the tools and environment necessary to achieve the highest potential in their stages of early learning.
The Learning Experience® is able to accomplish this by giving children the support they need to develop socially, physically and emotionally in a safe and secure environment. Programs like their cutting edge, proprietary L.E.A.P. (Learning Experience Academic Program) curriculum and Fun with Phonics have nearly 90% of participating children reading by the time they enter kindergarten. Other programs that are part of the everyday curriculum include sign language, technology (computers are provided in all classrooms for 2.5 years of age and above), a foreign language program, physical fitness and Manners Matter® have children exercising not only their minds, but their bodies as well. This well-rounded approach to early education of both the body and mind has made The Learning Experience the leading innovators in the child care industry.
Further evidence of their commitment to caring for children is the staff at The Learning Experience. Each staff member is a loving and nurturing individual with exceptional credentials. Teachers and assistants must follow strict guidelines, meet all state certification requirements and are encouraged to participate in sponsored continuing education programs. Mandatory First Aid training and CPR courses are provided annually. Consistent evaluations by superiors and parents help maintain the center’s high standard of excellence for its staff.
If you’re not already thoroughly impressed by the learning and the growing that takes place at The Learning Experience, you should see how they play! The Learning Experience’s unique play area, called Make Believe Boulevard® is a scaled down version of Main Street, U.S.A. that includes a fire station, diner, general store, post office and garage. Within this area, children can engage in socio-dramatic activities that encourages playfulness and role-playing.
Whether your child is an infant or preschooler, The Learning Experience offers the very best in age-appropriate care and academic and enrichment programming.
JMB Contributor Mary Lauren has had a chance to tour the facility and this is what she had to say:
“The Learning Experience has a lot to offer families in Mandarin. The Center Director, Sheryl, and Business Manager, Maribel, are just as bright and cheery as the new facility itself. TLE welcomes children and parents into an engaging environment where learning can be nothing but fun. The facility has everything a child could want from a splash zone for those warm Florida days to Make Believe Boulevard, a realistic town perfect for imaginary play. The curriculum is solid, thorough and organized in such a way that every child will love to learn. TLE has a lot of offer“
