The management team is more communicative and involved than at other facilities. Teachers do the best they can every day with the children. Some children can be very challenging and may require more than conscious discipline like some other centers offer. Discipline also begins at home. Misbehaved parents lead to misbehaved children. It seems there is a group of parents who are focused on disparaging employees at TLE and making false and/or exaggerated claims, which is very distasteful. No one is "forced" to send their children to this center. There are at least 50 other facilities in southeastern Hillsborough County. Fortunately, the majority of reviews for this facility are positive and the majority of the children and parents are pleased with the environment.

My son has really blossomed since starting with his teachers here. It took a little while for him to become comfortable with the transition from home with mommy to daycare, but the staff are so patient and reassuring with him. Now I get picture updates of him smiling and interacting with other kids. I 100% recommend this location to anyone I know.

We had a great experience at the learning experience- Apollo. The director Brenda is absolutely the best. She is so accommodating and reassuring and really cares about the facility, kids and parents. My son stayed home with me until 18 months so I was very nervous to start him in daycare. He transitioned so incredibly well because of the staff- his 1 year old class and the staff truly were amazing, Mrs.Alej, Mrs.Brynne, Mrs. Inaya and Mrs. Amber were truly such caring people. My son does have a dairy intolerance- they allowed me to bring his food(some places don’t allow you) as well as offering from their in house menu if I needed and they were very conscious of his dairy sensitivity and took it seriously which was very important to me. My son would be so excited to go to school everyday and even want to stay longer when I came to pick him up! We ended up leaving due to location and my husband’s job but we really do recommend TLE!

As parent, it’s incredibly reassuring to hear my child excited about going to school, even on Sundays! From the moment we arrived, the environment was warm and welcoming. The staff greeted my son by name from his very first day, making him feel special and comfortable. The school maintains a clean and safe environment for children, which gives me peace of mind every day. The teaching materials are excellent, ensuring a high-quality learning experience. I’m truly grateful for the positive impact this school has had on my child’s education and happiness.

Coming to TLE was one of the best decisions we ever made. We have 2 kids, one started in the VPK program and one is in the preschool program. For my eldest daughter when we made the switch to TLE she started excelling, and loving school again. Her amazing teacher, Ms. Melissa, changed the game for us. Our daughter was eager to learn, wanted to come to school and has told us she loves her so very much. The teachers really make the learning fun and enjoyable. Ms. Melissa is an angel and is the most talented teacher I've encountered. In the preschool classes, you really can't go wrong, as long as you communicate and ask tons of questions since the kids aren't the best at communicating just yet. We've loved our early teachers, Ms. Zay and Ms. Carlee, they even went above and beyond to celebrate my daughter with presents on her birthday. It was so touching to see how happy they both are to go to school. Over the past year administration has really turned a corner in a positive direction. Communication has improved, teachers are reaching out more, and we actually know what's going on. The VPK graduation ceremony was a highlight as it was beautiful, well setup and a great honor to our kids and their teachers. I know all daycares have their "issues" but with TLE we've been super happy and will continue to reap the benefits of a friendly and loving environment for our kids.

So far we absolutely love TLE-Apollo Beach. Ms. Olivia is a wonderful and caring teacher. Our daughter adores her. Ms. Erin was friendly and answered all of our questions prior to starting. The facility is new and clean. Staff are friendly and welcoming upon arrival during dropoff and pickup. We like the security system as well. Our daughter looks forward to going to her “elephant school” everyday which is what she named it. Thank you TLE-Apollo Beach! 7/15/24: We are still very pleased with TLE Apollo Beach. There was a rough patch a few months ago with shortness of staff and lack of communication. However, since Ms. Brenda (executive director) has come on board, communication has been excellent. Ms. Brenda is very compassionate and a wonderful listener. I feel that she absolutely has the best interest in mind for the children who attend. Our kids have been treated with love and respect by Ms. G, Ms. Olivia, Ms. Lauren V, Ms. Danielle, Ms. Nikki, Ms. Johcelene, Ms. Johanna, and all of the early AM staff. We appreciate you!

My son goes to TLE in Apollo Beach and I absolutely adore his teachers. If you happen to send your child here and they get Ms. Carlee or Ms. Zayh, consider yourself very lucky. They truly love the children and treat them like they are their own. I am at complete ease when he is under thier care.

Our son has not started yet, and will update once he does. shay has been great with the process of getting him started. Touring the facility it is very clean. Can’t wait for our son to start! UPDATE! We have been here for about 5 months now and can’t say anything but good about the infant room. Ms Johcelene and Ms. Johana. They are so great with my baby. I’ve had zero problems. He is also beyond happy everytime I drop him off and gets so excited to see them.

My son who is now 4 (alittle bit 5 in his words) loves coming to school! We started with the Learning Experience since he was turning 3 at River crest then when they opened up Apollo it was best for us to move him there. He had a great transition and he loved his teacher Mrs.Melissa.. She made learning very fun for him and he loved her a lot.. When we started the VPK program we had Mrs.G who was going to be his teacher. She was strict but we knew she had to be because she had almost 15 4 year olds and she had to have control of the classroom. It took some time for Joel to warm up to her. We are happy that we trusted our instincts and we left him in the class. My son is not the easiest and maybe the most hyper in class but now he comes home and says that Mrs. G is his best friend! Mrs. G has a kind soul and I’m so happy that he had her for his introduction to “school”. I hope nothing but the best for this facility as well as their teachers since they are the ones teaching and molding our littles!
