National Preschool announces local family to own and manage thriving Academy of Early Education

The Learning Experience announces new owners

The Learning Experience®, the nation’s fastest growing Academy of Early Education for children six weeks to six years old, is pleased to announce that its Troy, Mich., center located at 5660 New King Road is now under the ownership of Kelly J. Gvozdic and her husband, Dave Gvozdic, both Michigan-natives.

The Gvozdics first learned about The Learning Experience in 2013 while researching childcare providers for their one-year-old son. Both parents were attracted to the center’s well-rounded program and believed their son could thrive there. Over time, the more they learned about The Learning Experience, the more they wanted to be a part of their family and provide high-quality childcare to others.

Formerly corporate owned and managed, the Gvozdics jumped at the chance to own the Troy location when the opportunity came up. Now, as parents of two boys (one and four-years-old) who attend The Learning Experience in Troy, the couple personally understands how critical an early learning institution is to a child’s development and are now proud to provide such an important service as owners.
