Every child is different. Every child is one-of-a-kind. So at Tutor Time, every child's unique set of skills and interests are utilized to his or her advantage in the way that they learn, grow, build self-esteem, and develop their imagination. It's our job to bring out their best. Your child's day at Tutor Time is educational. It's social. And it's highly energetic.

We are an academic Preschool and Child Care with the culminating goal of teaching Pre-Kindergarten children to read Level One Books, write their first and last names, perform basic addition and subtraction problems, correctly form all upper and lowercase letters, be polite, happy, and socially appropriate children! For this to occur routine is imperative. Children can be dropped off between 6:30a to 8a; this ensures all children are on the same schedule, participate in morning recess and academics. English is the primary language in the classrooms; we also teach Spanish. We do believe children should understand consequences for their behaviors before attending. Please make sure your child knows what “time out” is and how to go to timeout. We do require children to apologize when they hurt friends.
