Description: 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. The secret ingredient is our LifeSmart™ curriculum, which creates fruitful, hands-on learning and confident self-expression. Inspired by Howard Gardner’s multiple intelligences theory, LifeSmart recognizes and embraces the different strengths and abilities of individual children. Those differences are embraced and used to drive a customized early education that addresses the specific needs of your child.
Beyond their development and education, your child’s safety and security are our top priority. And communication is essential. With regular updates (including many photos) of your child’s experiences, you can feel comfortable that you are sharing this journey – every step of the way.
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.
