What Parents Say
Parents consistently praise TLC Early Learning Center for its exceptionally low staff turnover, caring environment, and strong sense of community. Children remain enrolled for years across multiple age groups, with many returning voluntarily for summer programs after starting elementary school. The facility is characterized as a family-oriented place where staff genuinely invest in each child's growth and development.
Our son has attended TLC since he was 5 months old and is wrapping up his time there this month as an almost-6th grader. He has chosen to go back (full- or part-time) every summer after he started elementary school—and I think that is one of the most powerful testaments there is to this wonderful program. He has plenty of friends and other opportunities during the summer, but the pull of TLC is just too strong! He went there for daycare, after-school care, and the summer program, and each stage has included lots of fun field trips and opportunities to grow and learn. The director and many teachers have been there for decades, and many previous students come back to work. That's because it's a caring, safe place where kids are encouraged to move and learn and build long-lasting friendships. I can't recommend it enough. One day our son might be a staff member when you send your child :-). In the meantime, we'll truly miss everyone at TLC.
Our daughter isn't currently enrolled at TLC-ELC but she went here for 3 years until just recently. (We moved out of the area). The staff at TLC is fantastic and so invested in the little ones care. Our girl loved going here and we miss it and still keep in touch with many of the parents and staff at TLC. HIGHLY RECCOMEND
My daughter has been going here since she was two. She is now nine. She has gone through three classrooms and is now in the school-age classroom. I can't count how amazing field trips She has experienced. The summer program has so much to offer. They go to the city pool once a week. My daughter has taught herself how to swim. A lot of the staff has been there for many, many years ! Every staff member is absolutely amazing! This isn't just a daycare. It's a family! We only have two summers left until my daughter will not be able to go there anymore. It will be sad! But we will never forget TLC-ELC ♥️
We initially sent our son to a different center, but were luckily able to snag a spot here a few months later and the grass IS greener! The staff makes all the difference and truly love caring for young ones. Your kiddos aren't just a number and soon everyone in the building seems to know their name. Cannot recommend them enough. Added bonus they now utilize a great app for updates to help feel connected through the day. Trusting others caring for your child is a scary thought and here you can do so knowing they're in extremely kind & qualified hands.
Our family has been part of TLC-ELC since 2015 and we couldn't be happier. Our child started in the infant room, and now we are three classes beyond that - we have known every single teacher there since we started, and they have all known our child by name since we have been there. I know many of my friends can't say the same for their facilities - turnover is so low here and that has been such an important factor for us to know that our child is part of a "family". Classroom curriculum is intently designed for each age group and there is a really healthy balance of structure and play. We truly feel like family here and truly feel like our child is cared for. And at the end of the day, as a parent, that is the absolute most important part of a child care facility! We feel really blessed to have our child here.
