Tutor Time

I am extremely happy with the high level of care and attention that my daughters receive at this facility. Both of my daughters have been here since they were 6 weeks old. Now they are 3 ½ and 1 ½ and the consistency of quality care is outstanding from class to class. All of the teachers truly love interacting with the children and helping them meet their developmental milestones through daily activities — reading, math, art, music, dance, physical activity, science, sensory games, etc. Being a teacher myself, I like that the lesson plans are posted each week and that the bulletin boards are updated with the children’s current «work» (and this is true for the infant room all the way to the pre-​K class). The director, assistant director and staff are truly dedicated to all the children who attend this facility. They are all very friendly and I like that they provide me with updates several times a week during pick up and through the «daily» log that I receive. In addition, they hold parent conferences every 6 months. I always feel like I know how my girls are doing. The teachers are knowledgeable about early childhood development and are always able to answer any questions I might have. There are various seasonal activities throughout the year that help bring parents together, and they also offer a movie nights/​date nights so parents can have a night out. They have done an excellent job of creating a tight-​nit community with all the families. I would highly recommend this school to anyone searching for a daycare that is well-​run and is a fun place for children to blossom!

The infant care at Tutor Time far exceeded my expectations. As a first time Mom, I was nervous sending my 3 month old daughter off to daycare. From day 1 it was clear she was well cared for and enjoying the experience. The teachers are very attentive and focused on helping her learn new skills. Every day they provide new sensory experiences — be it finger painting, texture books, or hot and cold. She’s now 7 months old and thanks to the team is happy, sitting on her own, sleeping readily in a crib, and eating solids (something she refused to do with me no matter how hard I tried).

Horrible place!!! HORRIBLE! First of all, let me say, I am NOT a parent taking their child to this place. THANK GOODNESS! I was babysitting a child and had to go pick him up. Of course, the door was locked when I got there. As it should be. A lady sees me and ignores me. Okay, fine… i understand. A parent comes and opens the door for me. Same lady sees me come in and just keeps ignoring me. Imagine if i was a bad person… how easy this would have been for me. NOT the first time this happens, has happened twice.
As for the «care takers» or whatever they are… I walk in where the children are playing. The care taker is sitting doing nothing. Not watching the kids. I see the little boy i was picking up and I can see the older boys are being mean. He sees me and comes running to me. Tells me that the boy (name I will not say because he is young) is hitting him and is not letting him play. NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENS!!! The lady hears this and screams out the mean boys name and then keeps doing nothing. He has been hit by same older boy and NOTHING has been done.
Now let me tell you something… that BS about «oh they are just kids» pisses me off. What kind of adult lets bullying happen? As a teacher, care taker, babysitter, you are supposed to teach kids how to be nice, how to share, how NOT to bully, not to hit and to apologize. IF these ladies had any real education on how to teach REAL LIFE situations and not just ABC, I am sure it would be a better place.
Of course, i told the parents what I saw and I hope they take him out. I am also going to file a proper report. These are KIDS and proper action should be taken.

I can’t say enough good things about Tutor Time. Our daughter, who is now 17 months, has been going to Tutor Time for the last three months now, and the experience has been truly amazing. It did take our little girl a week or so to get acclimated to a daycare atmosphere, but her star has really shined since then. The curriculum for a 17 month old child isn’t too crazy, obviously, but they are constantly doing activities that help to develop motor skills, hand-​eye coordination, and their sensory perception. Nearly every day my little girl comes home and does or says something new.
The staff is solid, haven’t had a single problem with any of them. The director is very personable, and very passionate about what she does. Someone reviewed this place with a single star back in June. The current director had just taken over around that time. She has been there the whole time, and she really loves what she does!
I highly recommend this place for anyone that is looking for a clean, safe, and nurturing haven for their children!

We visited 3 other daycares in the area and we found this one to be the cleanest, safest and most convenient for us. I have a 6 months old and my son has been going to Tutortime for the last 2 months. Rhia, Heather and the other caretakers who help out in the infant room are always so great with my son and he is happy to see them when I drop him off in the morning. It is hard to drop the baby off in the morning because I miss him so much in the daytime, but it is nice to know he is in good hands and he really enjoys his time there. Also, at 6 months he has already started crawling, I think it is because he learned by watching the older infants.
Kate, the director there is great and knows all the kids and parents. They just installed a fingerprint system in the front so you can’t enter the building unless you enter the code and your fingerprint. Also there is a sign in the front that says do not allow strangers into the building. If there is an unauthorized person that somehow does get in the building who wants to pick up your child, all the caretakers know who the parents are and who is allowed to pick up your child, so that is one less thing you need to worry about.
Overall, we are very happy with Tutortime and the staff there!

I can’t say enough good things about the Tutor Time in Newport Beach. Great staff, great management, super location. It’s an incredibly clean, fairly big, well run facility… I love that a passcode is required to enter the building. I’m very happy with our experience at this Tutor Time and would definitely recommend to other parents.

My son is 2.5 years old. He loves tutor time and he loves his teachers. Here are the advantages that I found at tutor time, newport beach:
1– they are flexible, they want to accommodate your needs.
2– they are willing to help you with potty training your child
3– they give me a review of his day everyday i check him out.
also he does not get sick quite as i expected, but we are in the summer though. I hope their pre-​school is as good as their twaddler class, because my son should be moving there soon.
I highly recommend the place. Oh and I forgot, the staff are genuinely nice, which is a plus because you need to leave your child among friendly people
