Little Explorers Early Learning Academy

"I encourage all parents to NOT ENROLL YOUR CHILDREN AT THIS FACILITY! Firstly, the place doesn’t even look like a school. It’s in the back of a church and looks like more of a storage closet than anything. The director’s office is a COMPLETE MESS! They have been sighted many times to licensing and would receive many visits in the span of one month. The staff in general is terrible. The owner does NOT care about her staff, no matter how much they say they do. The assistant is the only one who’s not only honest, but cares for the children. The staff talks bad about one another, but there’s one specifically who speaks evil on everyone and she currently works there. She also wears clothing to work that has inappropriate messages. They are EXTREMELY understaffed and refuse to hire new teachers & blame their staff for not having enough people in for work. And from what i understand in the past few months, they lost three teachers. It doesn’t even look like a good place to work so why send your children here? As a concerned parent, this would be the LAST place i will send my child ever again."

"My son has been attending Little Explorers since he was 2 and loves it! He looks forward to learning and playing with his friends. The staff is very friendly and warm towards the children. The kids get a ton of outdoor time which is so important. The center has taken all necessary covid protocols and have kept the children safe the entire time. The director is engaging and kind. I highly recommend this center."

"I absolutely love Little Explorers!!! I sent my 4 year old son there all last year. The teachers are excellent and would stay in communication with me the whole day through Brightwheel. I was able to see pictures of my son throughout the day and knew exactly what activities he was doing/learning by the detailed message from his teacher. We had Ms Karen and loved her!!! And the owner, Ms Katie, is amazing!!! You can easily tell she loves what she is doing by the way she interacts with the kids!!! She treats them all as if they were her own!! I highly recommend Little Explorers!!!"

"I don’t even know where to begin to describe my love and the absolute trust I have for the entire staff at Little Explorers. My girls, who are now eight and seven, are alumni’s who started at LE when they were four and three. When I went for my tour prior to enrolling them, I met with the owner Katie and I felt such a sense of comfort trust that I hadn’t felt at any other center that I toured. My girls absolutely thrived during their time there. They were both extremely prepared for kindergarten (knowing their letters, numbers, and starting basic reading skills etc). The core staff that has been there since we started are some of the most incredible people I’ve ever met and they’ve truly become family to us. The love they all have for the children that are in their center is indescribable. They’re all so caring, compassionate and wonderful with every child there. Though my girls have since “graduated” from their center, they still attend during summer and school vacations for their “school age camp programs” they offer. My girls are ALWAYS so excited to go. Even during COVID when public schools were shut down, Katie went out of her way to create a school age learning pod that my daughters attended for most of the 2020-2021 school year. At Little Explorers, they truly put the children first and don’t just see your child as a dollar sign like other centers do. The family vibe that radiates when you walk through their door is not matched by any other center or program that I’ve ever toured or had my daughters in. Little Explorers will forever be our favorite place and everyone there will always be apart of our little family. You won’t regret enrolling your child in Little Explorers ❤️."

"Our daughter is so happy at L.E.! She is learning so much and making a ton of friends. Her teachers are extremely caring and knowledgeable. We just love Ms. Karen & Ms. Carmella, as well as all of the other teachers and staff at L.E.! As a teacher myself, I can tell that Ms. Katie has worked hard to put together a meaningful, research-based, and current early childhood curriculum. It's good to know that our daughter is in good hands all day while mommy & daddy are at work. :)"
