The Learning Experience - Manahawkin

"Stepping into TLE - Manahawkin felt like entering a warm, nurturing environment where every child's happiness and growth mattered. The tour was exceptional; the day care administrator, Sara, gave us a firsthand look at the engaging activities and cozy spaces designed for kids to thrive. The owners, Colleena and Shaleen, radiate genuine care and dedication, evident in their personalized approach to each child's needs. The administrator's kindness and sincerity made us feel like part of the TLE family even before our daughter started attending. TLE happened to be the first day care on our list to check out. We were thoroughly impressed that we didn’t even bother to tour the other day cares on our list. Also as a new mom, the transition was seamless, thanks to the supportive staff who understood my concerns and offered reassurance every step of the way. And lastly the teachers…They're simply amazing—passionate, attentive, and overflowing with love for the children they care for. TLE - Manahawkin truly shines as a beacon of excellence in childcare."

"My son has been going to The Learning Experience for just over a year and he is really enjoying it. The staff is great and they are ALWAYS friendly. Every person I pass by greets me and knows who my child is, even though there are many classrooms. No, it is not the cheapest place to take your child, but they feed them and the curriculum is excellent. Everyone thinks their child is the smartest, but I can say with confidence, he definitely knows more than most toddlers his age. I also love that I get pictures of him throughout the day. This really helped when he first started and I was nervous he would be upset all day."

"My two children are currently enrolled in TLE Manahawkin and I can’t say enough great things about this school. My daughter is now 3 and can tell me all of her letters and was helped to be fully potty trained. My son who is now 1 and a half is coming home each day saying a new word or signing a new word! It’s amazes me everyday what they come home and tell me what they did at school"

"The Learning Experience has been wonderful. My son has attended since 2020. They are local, friendly and so accommodating! My son has many therapists that come visit him throughout the day. It has been a great opportunity for him to learn, play and grow with his peers. I originally wanted him to attend for the socialization. He has learned so much and best of all he has a wonderful routine that he has come to expect. He enjoys all aspects of the day. Meal times, playground and art to give a few examples. He is so happy and we love The Learning Experience!"

"I’ve had my daughter at TLE Manahawkin since she was 6 months old and I have absolutely nothing bad to say about it. Very clean facility, very friendly staff, and nothing but love for my girl. She’s always smiling and laughing when I drop her off / pick her up. You get every penny’s worth with TLE, highly recommend to everyone."
