My son attended TLA for almost a year. The teachers were always communicative and patient. I appreciate Jessica, Holly, and the other teachers who would always respond to my concerns. My son enjoyed his time while he was there (he was always so proud of his little artworks😊), he seems very fond of his teachers and classmates, and still talks about them from time to time. They also help with potty training.
My son went here for about a year before enrolling in public schools and the teachers were amazing. Every morning he was greeted with genuine excitement to see him. At nap when he was upset his teachers gave him the type of love and comfort that I would. He always had such cute projects sent home at the end of every week, and the communication from his teachers was great. If I lived closer I would enroll my 2 year old immediately. I highly recommend this school to anyone I talk to with children.
My kiddo has been attending TLA for the last year. We have cycled through several different daycares, preschools, and private care options over the last 4 years and this has been our best experience yet! My kiddo is flourishing. They create the perfect balance of education and fun, and the teachers are like his family away from home. He comes home in a great mood, having had the best day ever, each day. He's proud of the projects he brings home and enjoys telling us about all the fun things he's done. They also set the kids up for success when they graduate to kindergarten. TLA is also an affordable option in the area without sacrificing care and education.
My daughter has been attending TLA since she has been 2 years old. My daughter walks in each day and is happy to see her teachers and friends which speaks for itself. I have never had to question the safety of my child or her well being. I love the small intimate class sizes, the spirit weeks, the family events, and that they are always trying to keep us involved. Each week I get a newsletter that covers what my daughter has learned and how I can assist at home in order for her to retain what she learns. I personally have seen such growth since my daughter has been attending and without question she is ready for elementary school. I appreciate that while they get down to business the afternoons are relaxed and the kids can be kids. Personally I find a movie and a snack the perfect ending to a busy day! Further more anytime I have had concerns and reached out to my child’s teacher after hours they respond almost immediately. While it’s bittersweet my daughter will be leaving next year to start elementary school I will for sure be sending my youngest next year!
Today was my daughters last day of preschool here. I will recommend this school to EVERYONE forever. Jessica and Holly were the best teachers I could have ever asked for, for her. She made wonderful friends, was taught ahead of her age group, had fun every single day and loved her teachers. I shed tears over her last day here. Thank you to the entire staff for an amazing experience and taking great care of our sweet little girl.
