Tutor Time

I love this place. My son has been going here since he was 9 months old and is now over 3 years old. The staff is amazing and management is very accountable. As an educator myself, I am very impressed with their willingness to go the extra mile for their kids and families.

I am a current parent here at Arcadia Tutor Time, have been for 4 months. My infant who is 6 months old is in the nursery room. The teachers Miss Samantha and Miss Shantel are wonderful and I can see how much they love their babies. They are so awesome with staying on his schedule and letting us know what he had done throughout the day. From the songs they sang, stacking blocks to sensory exploring. They are so amazing, my son is 6 months now and already pulling himself up to stand. Which I love, I see them working with the children, getting them to use their legs and it shows! These teachers do more than just language which includes sign language and spanish (Which I witness when I am breastfeeding my son, yes they are breastfeeding friendly!) :) but they also work on motor skills and self help skills. I was on the waiting list for 3 weeks and I would wait that all over again just to be apart of this Tutor Time family. I love the staff, his teachers, and I just feel so welcomed here.

I have nothing but amazing things to day about this place! My son is 4 months old and lives his teachers at tutor time sooooo much!!! They read to him sing to him and provide a wonderful environment. I’m a little surprised to read the last review of the parent looking at tutor time. Most infants don’t have a nap schedule buy tutor time totally follows the babies eating schedule and actually helped put our baby on a good eating schedule! Also they don’t people in street shoes in the room or other kids for the safety of our infants! I’m a lawyer mom and a super picky mom and I can’t say enough about how clean this place is! Everything is wiped down every night and everything that can be laundered is laundered. Sounds like the poster didn’t like that you pay for five days regardless if you use three but you get what you pay for and I’m happy to pay for wonderful childcare even if we don’t use it all week…

Just toured Tutor Time in Arcadia today for my infant. The person I scheduled the interview with was not there. The «tour» lasted about 5 minutes — I just got to look in the infant room. There was not a lot of structure — infants (6 weeks to 1 year) can nap and eat at their schedule. As far as «curriculum», I was pointed to a box that has learning aids that they can use if you request. As far as «tracking» this curriculum, they just write it on a white board. I was looking for somewhere that would be a bit more interactive with my daughter (teaching her sign language, reading to her, etc.), but these «teachers» do not have formal education — except for what is given for staff development I was told. The staff to child ratio is 5:1. There is no price difference in 3, 4, or 5 days a week, and you have to pay for vacation weeks as well. I saw them wiping down surfaces, but didn’t feel super clean in there. Just not a good fit for us.

Tutor Time is a great day care for the price. The facility is clean and the staff is overall really friendly. Some of the staff is questionable. Not that they aren’t good people, the personalities are a bit drab. I am really happy with the care my child receives and I feel like he is in good hands. His development has really excelled and I feel like his mood is much better at the end of the day!
