The Learning Experience - Overland Park West

We just started at the Learning Experience Overland Park West location about a month ago. It has been an all-around great experience for our family. Our toddler has multiple allergies and the new director helped us every step of the way making sure we had all paperwork in his file to assure he could have his own food sent from home. She told us all the extra things they do for kids with allergies to ensure their safety at the school like information sheets in the classrooms and that all their teacher go through required training for food allergies. The cook walked us through all her procedures to ensure he had his food for every meal. She has gone above and beyond for our family. His teachers have been incredibly diligent protecting him in the classroom as well. Shortly after he started, he did have to move up to the next classroom and even though it was a quick transition after just starting, we could not have asked for a better teacher to open her door to him. She is an angel of a teacher.

I just started my two children at this center and I am already very happy with it. The new Director here is phenomenal and was very informative with everything the school has to offer including paying very close attention to each one of my children's specific needs. The front staff is always very friendly helpful and always greets me with smiles on their faces and engages with my children.

I would highly suggest to look at other options for childcare. My experience while working with TLE has been terrible. From the day I walked in to tour they told me I didnʻt have an appointment. I showed them the confirmation email, and they told me I was 1 hr late based on their scheduling system (which is incorrect). The Executive Director has poor communication, gives parents attitude when parents are trying to make sure they have the proper paperwork in place while enrolling. They would not refund my deposit when I did not proceed to send my child there. If you want a place that you can trust, have proper communication and who gets back to you in a timely manner, DO NOT CHOOSE THIS PLACE. There are much better options out there, Primrose Blue Valley, Blue Valley Montessori, etc.

TLE in overland park-west is a wonderful center. I would reccommend them to any family in the area looking for care. The facility is nice and friendly, not to mention the kids all love waking up to go to school to see thier friends and teachers. If you are looking for a friendly place for your children that values curriculum, safety and great leadership, then this is the center for you.

I was in quick and sudden need of care for my 2 years old at the time. TLE was quick, responsive, helpful in getting my son established. My son and our family have some unique challenges and they were communicative and helpful in transitioning with us- wanting to help and care for us. I was new to all of this and they were an amazing first experience. I since, have had to make a change for my son based on him attending hilltop and needing to be in BV school district for bussing purposes for his half days there and needing care for afternoons. I hated the idea of making a change. I toured a couple other places- all seemed inferior to the cleanliness, brightness, facilities, and staff that I am accustomed to at TLE. We did make a change and the new place is nowhere near as effective or helpful or organized as TLE. In fact, I may be returning as I miss this place and my son does too! Really thankful for TLE in a time where I needed support.
