“I can't say enough wonderful things about The Goddard School LKW!! From the incredible teachers to the pristine building, it has been a wonderful experience for our kids. The teachers go above and beyond to try to figure out how each child learns best, and the Goddard curriculum ensures these kids are overly prepared to start kindergarten. The teachers and admins are all helpful and responsive to any questions or rare concerns that may arise. We love it here, would 1000% recommend.”

“I love working here and I love the education that my son has received! He is beyond prepared for Kindergarten and I am so thankful to the amazing teachers and management team for their support!”

“I would like to start off by saying that 5 stars does not do any justice to how amazing this school is. If I could like 100 stars, I believe that would be more appropriate. When we moved to NC, I prayed to find a school that loved and cared for our daughter as if she was their own child. This is EXACTLY what we found at The Learning Experience. They say that it takes a village to raise a child and this is exactly what we found; an extended part of our family. Finding TLE has literally been a blessing and an answered prayer for our family. The amount of time, dedication, love and passion they put into caring after your children is unmatched. From the amazing ladies at the front desk who welcome her in the morning with a "HEY GIRL" to a "SEE YA" on her walk out in the afternoon. To all the teachers who go above and beyond to make us feel loved, welcomed and included. I would like to give personal recognition to Ms. Angie, Ms. Sydney and Ms. Heaven, our daughter has worked with these teachers and I can vouch that they are phenomenal. They have helped our little girl blossom and the reason she has had so much improvement in such little time. Our daughter suffers from a speech delay and before starting at TLE, our daughter was a shy little girl who barely said anything. Now her vocabulary has improved tremendously and everyday she comes home saying new words or singing a new song she learned at school. They nurture your children and love them so much, to the point that our daughter will run to her classroom every morning and even forgets to kiss me goodbye. When I leave her at school every day, I know that she is being well taken care of and that gives me all the peace of mind in the world. I am extremely grateful to have come across TLE and would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone in search of a learning center like this. At TLE you are not just another check, and I am a witness to this everyday. The love they show our little girl is remarkable, and we are blessed every day to be part of the TLE family!”

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kiddie Academy! My youngest daughter has attended since she was 18 months old and she just graduated from TK! My older daughter has attended the after school program since she was in kindergarten and she will be going to third grade this coming year and still loves it! Ashley, the director is phenomenal and all of the staff and teachers have been consistently nurturing and amazing through the years. My girls have learned so much and flourished under their care. They have become a part of our family. It has truly been a blessing knowing that my girls are in a loving environment and also learning so much! I have watched them both excel in reading, writing, math, art, storytelling, science, music and they also enjoy lots of outdoor play! What warms my heart the most is when I pick them up and they want to hug all of the teachers and Ms. Ashley goodbye everyday. I feel so fortunate to have found this school for my little girls!”

“So very pleased with our recent move to OakCrest Ac. in Tega Cay. The staff are always friendly and helpful, children are happy at pick up and drop off. The school is run safely and have had 0 issues with accidents or safety concerns. My little one is provided a variety of meals throughout the day which helps her be exposed to different options. We're very happy with our time at OPA of TC!”

“The best place I could ever find for my babies. We have not met one teacher or person we’ve had issues with. They truly are like family and a huge comfort knowing my kids are in caring hands during the day. Ms. Kayla, Ms. Zoe, Ms. Ticia, Ms. Shae, Ms. Ty, Ms. Andrea, and so so many more - thank you for being the best at what you do!! Admin - Savannah, Kristina, Marah & Chef Kevin - y’all got it going on! Thank you for being so communicative, organized, and sweet. If you’re looking for daycares in Rock Hill, you are extra lucky to be able to get in here!! ??”

“My son has attended TLE since he was 3 and we are headed to kindergarten in the fall. The teachers dedication to the children, the curriculum, and the support provided by the administrative staff has made our time at TLE great. Ms. Connie Sherlock, the pre-k teacher is hands down a true gem and I am so thankful my son has her. She demonstrates a true passion for teaching, she loves her students, and they all absolutely adore her. Leaving TLE will be bittersweet but I am grateful for our time here as this school created a foundation of learning for my child.”

“My daughter America has been attending for 3 years and the truth is that she really liked it. The teachers are very kind and she has learned a lot. They are patient with the children. I recommend them 100%.”

“My son absolutely loves coming to school with Ms. Casey and Ms Cristin’s class. They have great communication with families and the two year old class is the perfect balance of learning, social play and fun!”

“I want say this is our second day care. I feel like it should have been our first and only . Our son has made great strides in under a year of being in this environment. We know that sometimes he can be a challenge but they met it head on with us. We have had wonderful teachers in those months. Mrs Bridget has stood out to our son and has helped him grow and still is a happy little boy. Thank you all for what you do and especially what you do for the kids”

“While in the process of relocating, my mother performed tours at several daycares throughout Charlotte. The first thing she told me after her visit to Dogwood was, "Every other place is fine but Dogwood isn't just a great daycare, it's a school." Our daughter (19 Mos.)has currently been attending Dogwood Lane for a year and her development has been leaps and bounds above what we could hope for. The level of care and attention to detail from everyone at DLCA is second to none. The owners are their daily to support the staff, the children and their families. The staff are not only focused on child development and safety but keep an open line of communication with us parents. I am truly grateful to DLCA for also going above and beyond during Covid. They have rolled out policies that are thoughtful and well communicated and not once have I felt that my daughter or my family is at risk under their care. Kudos to the entire DLCA team!”

“Absolutely love it at VMPS. We left another daycare after a bad experience and I couldn’t be happier that we decided on here. My son and daughter are thriving and I just wish I came here sooner for my 3 year old as she has already learned so much in less than a year here. My son loved the newborn class with Ms. Noemi and now he is thriving in the 1 year old class with Ms. Gina.”

“I enrolled my son to this daycare couple of months back, and all thanks to the teachers specially Miss Meritza to make his transition smoothly. He now looks forward to go to his daycare. Hes so welcomed, loved and encouraged there. That’s all I was looking for. Special thanks to Nicole for adjusting his needs.”

“My wife has worked there for over 2 years and they have taken care of 2 of our children. They have always accommodated my wife when she needed time off and helped my son be ready for kindergarten. I would highly recommend taking your child there or working there yourself!!!”

“MRS. STAR IS AMAZING!!! While attending a wedding reception I was overwhelmed with holding both my 3 year old AND 1 year old in my lap (of course they both had to have attention at the same time) Mrs. Star noticed me and asked "can I help you" I could have cried, right there... but I said "yes" instead. MRS. STAR WAS A GOD SEND!!!! She held, comforted and feed my 1 yar old that she had just meet as if she was her long lost Auntie. I had been struggling to commit to the idea of day care but after meeting Mrs STAR I knew I could trust Cabence Academy. We are looking to sign up asap.”

“My child started around 9 months and now almost 2. We really love it here. With this being our first child, the school was quick to realize that she wasn't responding to certain sounds like she was supposed to. We were able to get her ears checked and got tubes put in her ears. She is always happy to go to school every morning! The teachers follow a really good curriculum, even for the smaller kids.”

“My child has been attending this center for 2 years. We absolutely love them! It’s a relief to know your child feels comfortable, happy, and safe every day with his teachers while you are working. The staff all around is just great and makes you feel like family!”

“So grateful for our TLE teachers, teachers aids, and staff!!! My son started daycare in Nov and he has LOVED every minute of it. He literally smiles so big when he sees we’ve park at TLE in the mornings!!!As a parent, I was so stressed and anxious to find the right place for my son and I am so blessed to say we found it. Miss Ashley and Miss Keilani welcomed my son with open arms when he first started in toddler B, and as he transitioned into Twaddler A, Miss Erica and Miss Mahagony have been equally as kind, patient, and supportive.I also want to say that in addition to the great staff, I truly appreciated the fact that TLE has an app in which the teachers can give us constant updates on what the littles are doing in class and share some pictures with us throughout the day. Moreover, we also like that the facilities are always clean and tidy & we love the security measures they have to keep our littlest ones safe.Overall, if you are a parent and are still debating where to enroll your child This is the place!!”

“I must say my son Makhai and I love this center. Mrs. Tiffany the director is amazing as well as Tonya who greets us in the morning with open arms. Jazz his Teacher is amazing! My son never been around kids his age until he started going here I was skeptical of how he would respond to the new environment and to my surprise he has come along way because of Mrs. Tiffany and her staff. I would recommend this center to anyone and yes this is a real review and no one asked me to do this this is a heartfelt review for other parents looking for a center for their child/Ren where they will be learning and make new friends!!”

“First time mom here and let’s just say this place made my life a little easier. The staff here are friendly and care deeply for each kid. After a week or two attending all staff knew my babygirl name and greeting her every morning. Staff seem as though the are close/family and cover down on classrooms when help is needed. I love the new kiosk check in/out system as it helps track time and person that picks up the child. For the most part the facility is clean but it is a childcare center so you have to be realistic. At the end of the day her teacher always provides a status of how her day went. We joined at the beginning of this year Jan1 2024 and we will probably be here until she starts school. Advice if you are Military or DOD federal employee start the military assistance program early as it can take sometime to get in the system. Thank you childcare network staff at location 099 for all that you do!”

“Thank god, we’ve finally found a Pre-K school that will work for my child.I appreciate Ms. Mazie for assisting us with enrollment process, it was a great experience. She is highly responsive and always welcomes with a smile.I sincerely thank her instructor Ms. Kee, for helping my child become a better learner.He adores all of the activities and truly enjoys attending the Pre-K program here in Primrose school at Fort Mill.”

“Amazing daycare! My son has gone there since he was 7 months old. Catherine, the director is great. Front desk, Jordan and Chelsea are also always available and keep an open line of communication. They use a smart app which is helpful because it keeps you updated on activities your child does throughout the day, when they get their diaper changed, and also what they eat and how much. They email weekly lunch menus and any events/announcements which is really nice. All of his teachers have been amazing!! He does different activities everyday and has really learned a lot and talks so much already. Also, I wanted to give Ms. Callie a shoutout- my son constantly talks about her and I can tell that she really loves all the kids in her classroom.”
