  • The Learning Well has consistently been a supportive and compassionate environment for my daughter during her years there and she has flourished in their classrooms. We started at the West Bridgewater location and have been at Hanson for the past 3 years or so and have nothing but positive things to say about the kindness and professionalism of the teachers and the warmth and cleanliness of the buildings. Staff have always been attentive to our needs, address any concerns we might have, and provide clear information about updates and things going on with the program. I always recommend the Learning Well to others who are looking for quality child care in the area.

  • We have been blessed to send our two children to The Learning Well Hanson location. Our son has thrived there and we have been faced with compassion and understanding by staff and leadership as we navigate the many scenarios that arise inevitably when supporting young children in their development. As our son prepares to go to kindergarten, we have all the confidence that he will succeed due to the support The Learning Well has contributed to his development. We look forward to continuing our relationship in the coming years as our daughter continues on in their care. The Learning Well is a beautiful, well maintained, clean space with fabulous teachers and an amazing curriculum. We have felt very fortunate to be able to send our children here! It has been a great fit for our family.

  • Over three years at the Learning well and we had such an amazing experience. We started right after Covid world opened back up and were so impressed with the way things were handled. It’s incredibly affordable compared to comparable places. Additionally, it offers flexible teacher scheduling. Our son went through the toddler to PK program and is thriving in Kindergarten. Staff is warm and welcoming and communicative, and while there is some turn over, there was also consistency (and that’s reflective not of the LW but the field in general)

  • This review was deleted by The Learning Well ownership twice now and parents posted below this review, feeling the need to defend themselves given the myriad of awful reviews for a daycare center that they don't work for or own themselves. With that said, if anyone recently has given a high review (5 stars), they're parents who have a personal relationship outside of the daycare either with the owner Christine or the director, Kayce. For your own sanity, don't enroll your children into the Learning Well, Hanson. The owner, Christine, is a coward and dishonest. She leaves her directors to take angry parent complaints because she's an awful person and an ineffective leader. Her teachers and directors work in concert to either misrepresent the details of an incident with your child or they completely lie. I'm unsure which is worse. They lied to me two years ago when my son broke his leg in one of their classrooms and continued to lie about incidents he was involved in up until the day we left. It was only until my child told me that I realized the way in which the daycare operates. There have been more situations than I can count where the center was closed for reasons out of my control as a parent, yet I was still charged the full week or, out of some pity, given a "one time discount." Christine, the owner, cares little about these children and is singularly focused ONLY on making money and mistreating any good staff she does have working there; of which I've found are few and far between. Accountability starts at the top and, as honest as I've ever been, Christine is a terrible, terrible person who has no business owning an early childhood education center. I'd never, ever trust this place with my child ever again and it's my sincerest hope that they're investigated and closed soon. While I'm aware that the ECC has investigated them twice in the four years my son attended, including more recently due to complaints, I wonder how many visits it'll take before they're shut down for good, as they should be. They're deleting credible, negative Google reviews with comments attached to them because the platform allows it. However they're unable to delete a review without a comment attached to it.

  • We moved our daughter to the Learning Well for her PreK year. I was on the fence about it at the time, as I was pregnant with number two, going through a home renovation and she would only have just about a year at a new school. The minute I walked in, I knew it was the right decision. Our daughter had a great year, well prepared (and more) for K. Our son had a wonderful experience in the infant room and now the young toddler room. They both thrived / thriving in the environment. Consistent schedules and flexibilty for plenty of practice with motor skills, sensory & art, music, outdoor time and free play. You name it, LW offers it! I’m so glad I have a few more years there. Edited to add: no personal relationship with owner or directors. I went to the Learning Well as a result of other families I knew that went there and had referred us.

  • My daughter began at The Learning Well at 12 weeks old the week they opened in Hanson. She has moved through each of the classrooms and is currently in the pre-k class. We have always felt that she is safe, taken care of, and loved. Being a working parent is difficult and I always felt comfortable knowing that she loved walking into school each day. Most days she doesn't even say goodbye to me! The app used allows me to see what she is doing throughout the day as well as consistent communication regarding any issues or concerns. Any issues we have had over the years have been discussed with the teacher or director and have been resolved with a discussion. We are excited for her to attend kindergarten in the fall knowing that she is WELL prepared. Edit: my relationship with management is with them as a childcare provider. Which is the point of a child care facility.
