The Learning Experience

Ended up pulling our kid completely on day one of our two week notice of removing him from this daycare. Our son was fighting and crying to go into the building towards the last week or two of being at this daycare and was begging to not go in. The staff on his last couple days there never took accountability for what I brought to their attention the last few days and pointed fingers at us. Same as what they are doing in their response to my review below. We luckily were able to get a spot last minute at another daycare and our son has been loving all the teachers and staff at the new daycare and seems like a whole new kid when we pick him up at the new daycare.

I absolutely love this place. I was nervous to send my infant off to daycare.... like, could someone treat my baby as their own or as good as grandma? Yes. Yes, they can. I initially looked into it because it's on my and my husband's way to work, it was time to go back in-office full time, and wanted him to start getting socialized with other kids. I was SUPER curious after reading reviews because there aren't any bad ones... which is weird, right? Nope. It's great. I get it. I have 0 bad things to say. I've been bragging it up since day 1. Ms Sarah, Melissa, and Sowjanya of the infant room are some of the sweetest, warmest, humans. Every day we walk in, even if they're all dealing with an infant or two, one always comes to greet my little guy and ease him away(major velcro baby). Today was the second drop off in a row of baby actually reaching to be handed off. They get on the floor and read, teach, and play with the infants, help walk, rock, sooth, feed- you name it- they're fully engaged and hands on. They clearly found their calling and love what they do. It goes beyond the infant room though because every kid I see seems very comfortable and happy to be there. Even seeing other teachers in the hall, they say hi to my son, by name, and are so wonderful. I love all the activity updates, but especially the pictures. Getting a glimpse into the life of infants is so entertaining lol. The teachers give me updates at pickup of what foods he didn't care for, any issues, and on his second day there, caught that I needed to change up bottle nipples because of how he was acting while feeding (yep, sure did!). Nicole and/or Hannah are right there when you walk in and are just as excited to see the kids coming in as if they're their own students- and they know every one by name. Today they were tending to a girl who just wasn't feeling well, and trying to help her like she was family (it was really sweet). They do picture day, arts and crafts, charity fundraisers, and celebrate birthdays on top of the obvious learning aspect. They decorated the room's window for my son's birthday and were all excited to celebrate him when we walked in. I couldn't fathom just how loved and "part of the family" it felt after only a month of attending (and 2 days a week, at that). I could go on and on how much I love TLE- Wixom. Absolutely go take a tour.

We have our child enrolled in TLE Wixom. We have not started yet, but so far our experience with the tour, orientation, registration, and overall communication has been great! During the tour, every staff member was warm and welcoming - putting this center at the top of our list from the get go. I was very impressed with the education and activities they provide for all ages. They have also been extremely flexible and understanding with changing timelines of when our child will be starting. Although putting a child in daycare is never easy, I find comfort in knowing our child will be happy and in great hands!

I've known the director, Nicole Caloia for several years and recently had the opportunity to tour this facility. What an amazing learning center this is! From the colorful characters to the all encompassing curriculum, this place has it all. I highly recommend that any parent that's looking for a well run, fun and safe place for their children, should check this place out. I wish I had something like this when my kids were little. I had the chance to meet a few of the other caregivers as well as the owner while in my visit. All seemed dedicated to the welfare of the children trusted to their care. And as for Nicole, her love for children is evident in the work she does.

Our 1.5 year old son has been coming here for about 7 months so far, and he absolutely loves it! We noticed a huge difference in his behavior and learning skills already at such a young age. He is thriving! The Learning Experience has the nicest staff members and owner, too! We feel very comfortable sending our son here and our new baby will also be joining soon. They work with you to pick a schedule that fits well with any lifestyle. Our son currently goes part time due to me working part time and also being home part time, but if I had a job that required me to work more days then our kids would definitely be full time. We appreciate their willingness to have our son part time and accept him with a few days of care so it can still benefit our life. We had experience at a previous daycare within the past few years and The Learning Experience of Wixom definitely proves to be the best fit. We are blessed to have this daycare open up and absolutely love the positivity and happiness that comes with it! The teachers are so sweet, caring, and always have smiles on their faces. It’s nice to see the staff get treated well. Would definitely recommend this place!
