Meet Our Founder

A Vision Rooted in Faith.A Future Built for Children.

Mr. Ty, widely known as "The Childcare Whisperer," is a faith-driven leader, educator, and visionary dedicated to transforming early learning through purpose, excellence, and love.

Called by Purpose

From a young age, Mr. Ty knew his purpose was bigger than himself—to inspire, influence, and invest in the next generation.

The Leap of Faith

In 2020, he took a leap of faith and stepped out on his calling—leaving behind the comfort of the familiar to build something greater.

A Full-Circle Moment

In 2025, God closed the circle in the most powerful way. Mr. Ty purchased the very Atlanta center where his childcare career began years ago—and turned it into something extraordinary.

Mr. Ty, Founder of The Early Learning Institute

This is more than a business—this is ministry in motion. The Early Learning Institute was built on faith, shaped by purpose, and sustained by God's grace. Every child who walks through our doors is a reminder that we're here for such a time as this.

– Mr. Ty, Founder

Our Foundation. Their Future.

At The Early Learning Institute, we believe in shaping the whole child through:

Excellence

We pursue the highest standards in early education.

Leadership

We empower children to be confident, capable, and compassionate leaders.

Love

We lead with love, nurturing every child with care and respect.

Faith

We are grounded in faith, trusting God to guide every step.

Our Curriculum

Where Faith, Creativity & Learning Come Together

We educate using the Whisperer Curriculum, a proprietary curriculum blending structured traditional foundations, creative exploration, faith-based development, social-emotional learning, and developmental best practices. Our A-Players think outside the box to deliver à la carte learning experiences tailored to each A-Learner. Beyond academics, we offer a variety of extra-curricular activities designed to spark creativity, build skills, and foster a love of learning.

At ELI, we prepare children not just for success inside our walls, but beyond, developing well-rounded scholars, confident leaders, and responsible citizens.
