We've had a wonderful experience at TLE Leatherhead, we can tell how much our son loves the nursery. The team really made us and our son feel welcome from the start, with a smooth and communicative settling-in period. We get regular updates on the app with photos, and the team always provide detailed updates on pick-up. The value for money on funded hours is excellent. Thank you to Naomi and team!
The permanent staff in my child's room have been brilliant - really caring and nurturing. They really know my child and she loves Gyulbie and Orlane. It makes it a lot easier to drop her off knowing that she feels happy and safe there. Naomi is also a much appreciated member of Management - she makes an effort to know the children and families and her communication is so appreciated. My child has had some health issues and the staff have been brilliant in supporting her. My child has really benefitted from being at the nursery - her confidence and development has really developed since she started in September last year. We really appreciate the way the changing stations are set up and find this very reassuring. The photos uploaded each day to the app also help reassure that my child is having a great time! Ash was also great when we had our tour of the nursery and checks in when he is on site - his professional but friendly and cheerful demeanour are an asset.
Very happy with The Learning Experience! All the staff work so hard to provide a fun and educational environment for the children. My daughter loves it there and the updates I get throughout the day make me feel connected and reassured. Highly recommend.
Thank you so much for your kind words and recommendation. We're delighted to hear that your daughter loves her time with us and that our team's hard work is making a positive impact. It's wonderful to know our updates help you feel connected and reassured throughout the day. Your feedback truly means a lot to all of us!
We have two daughters at this nursery and it is excellent. The staff are loving and warm and this is underpinned by excellent organisation. We like the fact that it is purpose-designed with safeguarding as the priority (eg all changing stations are with staff facing into the rooms, there are windows in all the rooms etc). It is thoroughly cleaned every night and in general well-maintained. The staff seem to have unending imagination and enthusiasm for the activities which they do with the children. There is a decent amount of outside space which because it is astroturf does not get the girls' clothing filthy. It's excellent - if we have a third, they will be going here too.
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback. We're delighted to hear how happy your daughters are and that you value our caring staff, facilities, and activities. We especially appreciate you noticing our safeguarding measures, it's a top priority for us. Your kind words mean a lot!
We attended the Open day in November was brilliant. All the staff were welcoming and friendly. They had real animals for the children to see. Lots of Christmas themed crafts. It was such a lovely morning thank you.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We're so pleased you enjoyed our November Open Day at The Learning Experience Leatherhead. It's wonderful to hear your child loved meeting the animals and taking part in our Christmas crafts. Creating a welcoming environment that's fun for parents as well...
My son loves it here, best thing for him, can wait to get dress to go worth every penny. Was worried about sending him full time but my mind was at ease with the staff as he was only 6 months old when he first went.
Thank you for your wonderful review! It's fantastic to hear your son enjoys being at The Learning Experience Leatherhead and looks forward to each day a great foundation for his early learning journey. We're so pleased our team helped you feel confident when he started at just 6 months old....
The facilities are very neat, well equipped and safety and security is top notch.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled that we could support you and your daughter during this important transition. Our purpose-built, state of the art nursery is designed with safety, security, and the comfort of every child in mind, giving parents confidence while children...
Our son started when TLE first opened and while there had been teething problems in retaining staff which resulted in our 2 year old at the time having multiple primary caretakers as well as mixing up the year groups due to the small group of children that enrolled - we have been more than happy about how the communication and care had been given to our son during his transition from the old nursery.
The environment is exceptional and our son loves each room and playing in the spacious garden - but more importantly for us was his water bottle, toys and environment are kept clean and has been that way until we moved away last month.
The staff are wonderful and pay attention to detail and our son mentions many times at home and while outside the nursery how he misses them and names them which shows us that he has made strong bonds with the staff and has made many friends during his time there.
He has thrived during his time at TLE and I would strongly recommend.
I would definitely recommend the Learning Experience. They have been amazing with me and my daughter. They have helped me on many occasions and they always go to the moon and back to help me with all sorts of situations. The staff are friendly and accommodating. They always have a smile. I am very happy my daughter loves this nursery. X
Fantastic new nursery. Bright, bold decor. Wonderful friendly, helpful staff. A wide range of activities for all age groups. Fantastic outside play area with a range of activities. Excellent range of food, they definitely take extra care and go that extra mile when it comes to children's allergies. We definitely recommend this nursery, our son loves it here.
So close to my work in Leatherhead and perfect location for anyone commuting via the train station.
My 14-month-old has been at The Learning Experience since October, I was extremely sceptical about putting her into daycare but it was the best decision we ever made. From the moment we took a tour of the facility we knew it would be the best place for her. The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming and go above and beyond for the children. Our daughter has a bond with everyone and will always go up and give them a cuddle. She has grown in confidence and her speech and movement has come on amazingly. She comes home exhausted from a full day of learning, playing and having fun. The daily updates on the app are so reassuring to see how she gets on during the day. So glad we have such an amazing facility so close to work and home. 10/10 would highly recommend.
We understand that as a parent, finding a child-care provider that eases our worries can be difficult. We are glad that our team was able to help with this initial transition. We're thrilled your daughter is having such a great time with us and is sharing their learning achievements with you at...
Our son absolutely loves going to nursery and I always feel happy knowing he's in safe hands.
I'd recommend this nursery to others and plan on sending him there until he goes to school.
Wow, thank you! This just made our day, we are thrilled to hear such wonderful feedback about your son's extraordinary time with us at TLE Leatherhead. Our focus is to create an atmosphere that is not only fun and safe, but also encourages active participation and supports learning for every child....
Thank you for all you do to create such a positive space for the children.
Thank you from the entire team for sharing your experience. We are thrilled to hear such wonderful feedback about your daughter's extraordinary time with us at The Learning Experience Leatherhead. It is truly inspiring to know that our hard work is resulting in happy families and thriving children....
My daughter started at The Learning Experience back in June when she was 10 months old and I have been so impressed by the Leatherhead branch so far. This is my first experience using a nursery and everyone there has made the process so easy, any hesitations I initially had quickly went! My daughter absolutely loves going there and gets excited each morning when we get her green bag out ready to go! I love receiving the happy pictures of all the different things she gets up to throughout the day. I couldn't recommend this nursery enough!
Thank you for sharing such great feedback and it is great to hear the team are making such a positive impact. The team take great pride in supporting the care and education for all of the little learners. I look forward to sharing this with the team.
The Learning Experience truly is where happiness happens. My 2-year-old daughter started a different nursery to begin with, a smaller nursery that I thought would fit her needs. She struggled with separation and it was a really tough time. She wouldn't settle and my gut told me that wasn't the place for her. I had seen the posters around advertising The Learning Experience, so I gave them a call. From the very first moment of contact we recieved a welcoming, informative and friendly experience. They listened to my worries, they personally catered for my daughter's needs by going at her pace, they observed to see what she enjoys and made her feel so relaxed and safe to be there that she would head straight in, literally from week 1. It was incredible, a complete transformation of my daughter's nursery experience. She has been adapted to, and catered for ever since. I cannot thank the amazing staff enough for their outstanding care and love. You changed her world! Thank you.
It is fantastic to hear your experience and how the team have supported you as a family to ensure you feel that The Learning Experience Leatherhead was the right place for your little learner. I look forward to passing your feedback on to the team.
I cannot recommend The Learning Experience highly enough. I originally started looking for a nursery for my newborn daughter, as I knew I did not want to send her to the provider my 3-year-old son was currently at. At the time I had no intention of moving my son who was settled in his current nursery, but when we toured TLE we were just blown away. The setting is stunning; new, modern, full of engaging and educational toys and the commitment to each individual child's care and development is above and beyond what we were currently experiencing. We decided to move our son across to TLE in March 2024 and haven't looked back. His speech, and educational milestones have come on leaps and bounds and I love seeing the activities that have been set up for him each day in the app. My daughter is due to join in September 2024 aged 9 months and I couldn't feel more comfortable leaving her with the wonderful team.
Thank you for taking the time to share such wonderful feedback, this is hugely appreciated and I look forward to sharing with the team directly. The team take great pride in the care and education of all our little learners and we are really pleased to hear of your journey to date with us.
We absolutely love this nursery. After a bad experience with a childminder, we were very anxious of sending our child into any childcare. However, the staff at the learning experience couldn't have been more supportive and reassuring. Our daughter has attended since she was 1 and has absolutely thrived. I wouldn't send her anywhere else and will be sending any other children we choose to have here. The app is great for updates and the teachers and management are so friendly and approachable. My daughter can't wait to attend each day.
Thank you for taking the time to share such a wonderful review of your experience to date. The team take great care and pride in ensuring all of the little learners have the best start in life. Thank you for sharing.
Our son has been with The Learning Experience since February and continues to thrive. The staff are caring and considerate. There are plenty of updates on the app which gives peace of mind. I can't fault them, the rooms are spacious with lots of interesting toys, books and educational bits and bobs. I love that they have gotten to know all the kids so well and really want to support them to progress and learn.
This is fantastic to read on your experience to date. I know the team at Leatherhead take great pride in ensuring all of our little learners have the best day whilst in our care. Thank you for taking the time to share such a lovely review.
We are happy with the establishment so far and would recommend them. They also have onsite free parking which makes drop-off and pick-up easier.
Such a lovely review and thank you for taking the time out to share your experience to date. I will certainly take pride in sharing this with the team at our Leatherhead setting.
