About the Provider

Description: At Tutor Time, our educational child care begins with a deep respect for your child’s eagerness to learn and capacity to develop meaningful relationships.

Our dedicated and highly trained teachers focus on creating these nurturing relationships that allow children to feel valued and empowered. This philosophy inspires the Tutor Time® StartSmartTM and LifeSmartTM curriculums, which focus on developing your child’s unique interests and abilities with hands-on active learning and opportunities for self-expression. Our Whole Child Education philosophy cultivates your child’s entire being. And our Creating Character program teaches skills such as teamwork, citizenship, kindness and respect. By focusing on developing meaningful relationships, we are creating a meaningful environment for your child to learn, grow and excel.
