We LOVE tutor time. The staff feels like family and they treat my kids as if they are their own. They are intentional with their care - from what is taught in the classrooms, to the hands-on activities they do with the kids. We trust our infant is safe, happy, being engaged with, clean, and feeling secure. The type of care the Tutor Time team provides is unparalleled.

Enrolled Family

We have three kids and this is our first in daycare. Tutor Time has exceeded our expectations.

Enrolled Family

Tutor Time is wonderful. The staff is beyond amazing in caring for my infant daughter. While her first few weeks were very hard for both of us, Ms. Cassie was wonderful in making her transition as easy as possible.

Enrolled Family

Overall rating=very good. Most staff is amazing. Food is nutritious. There is patient staff helping my 3 year old ball of energy. Someone always answers the phone. I loved gymnastics for my boy and updates on Brightwheel were very helpful for me to get though my day. More updates on there would be nice!
