Description: Child Time Inc was established in 1988 to fill a large void in the community, the void of QUALITY preschool and childcare. At that time, there were few choices of quality childcare programs and even fewer choices of quality preschools. Child Time set a new standard for childcare when we opened The Avenues Preschool in November of 1988, The Eastside Preschool in 1992 and The Second Avenues Preschool in 2006. Our schools were the first private preschools in the state of Utah to acquire accreditation from The National Association for the Education of Young Children and the National Early Childhood Program Accreditation NECPA. Our accreditations acknowledged the high standards of our program and the quality early childhood experiences that we offer the community.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.

The teachers and facility are great for the most part. The director however is somewhat unfit for the position. She is poor at active listening and can be quite invalidating. Love your teachers, but if you ever have to talk to Barbara for anything, take it with a grain of salt. I have heard multiple parents say they have also had bad experiences with her. At one point I asked to talk to the owner because of how poorly some things were being handled but was denied. I got the feeling that the director did not have my child's best interest in mind, but was more concerned about shooing us out of her office. It's a business. Like many businesses, money comes first.
If you have a child who behaves well, this is a great place. If you have a child who has any issues (even appropriate for their age), be prepared to feel invalidated and not listened to. Without prior warning or discussion, be prepared that your child may even be "disenrolled."
