At Tutor Time, our approach to child care is based on our strongly held belief that all children are intelligent. Our Whole Child Education approach provides what we believe are the best ways to nurture and develop that intelligence: hands-on, active learning and opportunities for self-expression and peer relationships.
Our classrooms are not typical child care environments. They feature different learning centers full of ways for children to explore and investigate all the ways they are smart. They also are designed to build problem-solving and critical-thinking skills. To make sure all children have the tools they need to grow and develop into the leaders of tomorrow, Tutor Time teachers also supplement these experiences with large and small group activities. After school programs and winter camps also available.
