Early childhood is a time of remarkable brain development. The education that children receive during these years creates the foundation for their future growth, development and learning potential. At The Learning Experience®, we are dedicated to cultivating creative, compassionate and innovative young minds through our proprietary curriculum and enrichment programs that increase learning during six critical stages of early development. Our programs have been built to help children maximize their cognitive, physical and social potential. Or as we say at TLE®, we help children "learn, play and grow!" We believe that how children learn is as important as what they learn, that's why our educational programs are designed to inspire children's love of learning through hands-on lessons that make their educational experience fun! Daily lessons promote positive engagement throughout the day and include phonics, sign language, manners and etiquette, philanthropy, foreign language and hands-on technology. Enrichment programs such as yoga, soccer, drama, dance and music are also offered at no additional cost. Whether you have an inquisitive infant, tenacious toddler or passionate preschooler, put your child on the path to success and discover how we help children reach their full potential at The Learning Experience®!

What our parents are saying about us…
“My grandson attends The Learning Experience in Blackwood NJ. He is now 10 months old and has already learned so much! Whenever he comes to my house to visit I catch him doing sign language with his mom and dad and just see his overall progress and development since being in school. Sometimes at home Dylan can be a picky eater however his teachers work really hard each day to ensure he is getting adequate nutrition. He also really loves the school lunch! His teachers are so very loving and nurturing I am so happy he is there! I cant wait to see him to continue to develop and grow.”
—Caroline“The Blackwood Learning Experience is an amazing place! It starts with Lee, the helpful owner, Nicole, the great director, who is hands on with the kids and ensures that both the established age appropriate curriculum and nurturing envirornment is provided to All children, the awesome friendly assistant director and all of the hard working and loving staff. They do a tremendous job from the time you drop your child off until pick up. The diversity of the children and the parents, from various culture and economic backgrounds provides a real world experience for those who attend. My two grandsons attend and the five year old could easily fit into a first grade class now and the three year old is progressing above expectations. My daughter recently moved to a very upscale neighborhood and moved the three year old to another daycare center (not tle) closer to her. The difference in the progress and overall happiness of the child was so glaring that he returned to Blackwood...(Read More)”
