Growth Continues for The Learning Experience

Wilmington's newest childcare facility, which opened over the summer, hopes to reach full capacity by year's end.

Though The Learning Experience has been open less than a year, Wilmington's newest childcare facility continues to grow. According to owner Vaishali Mitta, the center is running at almost full capacity in seven classrooms, and they will continue to open additional classrooms as more teachers and children join. Mitta hopes the center will be at full capacity by the end of 2013, and said that because of the growth, they are always looking for new hires. "There is a lot of activity," she said. "We are growing at a steady pace."

With Newtown at Snowflake Capacity, TLE Shows Support from Home

The Learning Experience hoped to send the paper snowflake donations it received to the students of Sandy Hook Elementary School, but instead decorated the inside of its childcare facility.

Wilmington residents wanted to do their part in showing support for the town of Newtown, Conn., and they accomplished that. The only problem, however, is that the entire country has done its part as well. The Learning Experience coordinated a snowflake and paper heart drive, hoping to send the creations to Sandy Hook Elementary School to make the students feel back at home. But the response was so overwhelming, the town asked for a hault to donations. So instead, The Learning Experience decorated the entrance to their childcare facility on Main Street with the snowflakes in an effort to show continued support for Newtown.
