The Learning Experience – Be a part of a rapidly growing industry

The Learning Experience® (TLE®) is one of America’s fastest growing childcare franchises and a recognized leader in the daycare and early education industry. We have more than 550 centers open or in development, including our first UK location in East Finchley. We invite you to join an industry that’s flourishing and projected for continued growth by becoming one of our first franchisees in the UK! 

Child Care Market Growth

Researchers project major growth in the childcare industry at a global level. A recent study from The Business Research Company says “the global child care services market is expected to grow from $271.67 to $295.99 billion in 2022.” That’s at a CAGR of 9%. Looking further down the road, the data suggests that the industry “is expected to reach $415.96 billion in 2026 at a CAGR of 9%.” This growth is propelled by workplaces recovering from the pandemic and bringing employees back into the office.  

This comes as market researchers in the UK find there is a lack of childcare options available for families making that same transition to in-person work. They say the lack of childcare availability in the country is limiting parents’ work options. The Coram Family and Childcare’s 2022 Childcare Survey found “only 57% of local authorities now report having enough childcare places available for children under 2, down from 72% in 2021.”

The childcare industry is booming and poised for continued growth! It’s also a field that allows you to shape your community in a positive way. When you open a childcare centre with The Learning Experience, you educate the next generation.

Why Become a TLE Franchisee

We hear, time and time again, that being a TLE franchisee is special because our company culture is a family. This overwhelming consensus by franchisees is based on our timeless commitment to deliver world-class support across all aspects of our franchisees’ businesses. 

Throughout the franchisee journey, The Learning Experience’s in-house experts create and provide its proprietary curriculum for each day, to support consistency for our teachers, and children… as well as innovative technology developed and owned by TLE for use both in and out of the centre.

Our strong curriculum meets or exceeds global early learning standards, and children graduate from the program ahead of their peers. A franchisee’s role in laying that educational foundation will impact that child’s entire life trajectory and set them up for future success! 

TLE’s reputation is also a key deciding factor for potential franchisees. Our franchisees value the TLE brand, and it shows… again unlike any other in our industry, 68% of our US franchisees are multi-unit operators, supporting the strength our brand has with our franchisees.

The Learning Experience is seeking UK-based franchisees that align with the brand’s mission: to make a positive difference in the lives of our children, their families, and in the communities we serve. Owning a TLE centre allows you to have an impact on your community and provides you the opportunity to grow as an entrepreneur, all while maintaining work-life balance for yourself.

With one location open in the UK, a number under development and a new International Headquarters in London, The Learning Experience is ready to take their brand further and welcome UK franchisees to the family!
