Prejudice Center Director
Posted by tlon86 on 09/23/2009
I would not send my child here. The Center Director is caucasian and I felt she was prejudice. I came for a job interview and wanted to walk into a warm and friendly environment since these women work with children, and it was not that at all. I am a senior attending a university and was overly qualified and she made references saying that I did not know certain terms and was talking down on me. I have 50 ECE units and one of the head teachers only had 18 ECE units. And this head teacher was full-time. I was looking for a part-time position that could help my future career and hopefully turn it into a full-time position. But I feel it was because I am a African American women she did not want me to take hers or any of her friends/coworkers positions. I am extremely dissapointed that tutor time hires people like this and should be ashamed of themselve and this company. If this is how they treat me, what about the African American, Mexican American, Asian American, or any other ethnicity children at tutor time? Overall, I am upset and I would not recommend anyone to send their children here. Find another place like Kindercare or another surrounding child care center. Dont' waste your money.

Disgusting Place

I just could not bear the thought of horrifying experiences at this daycare. Staff is not fit to do anything with kids.

Do not enroll your child here
Posted by PIAMAN28 on 07/22/2008
Being a Pre-Kindergarten teacher at the yorba linda tutor time on los angeles street, i could state a few of the problems the "learning center" has.
1. teachers are treated badly from the owner (if teachers are happy, then the children are happy, and so on)
2. Always understaffed. (there was one time when i was with 19 children on splash day all by myself and numerous occasions when i was over the legal ratio 12:1.
3. the owner is cheap (she wouldn't get supplies, wouldn't let anyone use the copier)
4. the kids eat junk food all day (even the snacks and lunches provided are unhealthy)
5. children drink water out of the faucet!
NEED I SAY MORE...

Worst in town!
Posted by ANALYST911 on 07/03/2008
My son stayed home with me a year and I went back to work and sent him here when he had just turned 1. Naturally he had separation anxiety, and less than 10 business days later, I was advised that I should enroll him for half the time because he whined all day and teachers could not manage him, and if I did not take that option, he would have to leave permanantly. Of course that was not an option because I just started a new job! Needless to say I was upset since they assured me that not only was the seperation anxiety normal, but they would work with him and give him extra love and attention. Giving up on my kid less than 10 business days later was not my idea of showing care and sensitivity for him. So I took him to Kindercare down the street. He whined for "mommy" for a month after, but they did't give up. Let's put it this way: I should have known something was wrong when the teachers looked miserable. If one does not like working with kids, they should NOT work with kids.

I would never take my child to Tutor Time again. He was in the facility in Santa Ana, CA for 6 months. He was sick the ENTIRE time. Every time I went to pick him up, the classroom stunk like dirty diapers. Obviously with 12-14 kids in the room, you have to take out the trash more than once a day but they didn't even when the diapers were over flowing out of the trash. There were never enough teachers in the room. My son was constantly being hit by one child in particular and nothing was ever done about it. I finally had enough when that kid hit my son over the head with a shovel and put a gash in his head. The director made it out to be no big deal even though his shirt was full of blood. On one occassion they misplaced my sons medication and forgot to give it to him. He got pink eye after being there for only a month. After 6 months of that place, I had enough. They sure act like they have strict rules when you sign the kid up but as soon as they have your money, they could care less. Even my son's clothing and bed sheets were stolen out of his box and no one cared or did anything about it. My son is now in a day care right across the street and I have had zero problems with kids hitting him and he has not been sick since he left Tutor Time.

I wouldn't think of putting my son anywhere else! This particular location is ran like a well oiled machine. I have NEVER had any serious issues with anyone and I am truly a picky person. If you want to leave your child for the day and not worry yourself sick about what your child's going to be like when you pick him/her up, this is the place. I highly recommend.

Unbelievable
Posted by sharr77 on 05/17/2008
I agree. My son has been in this daycare since he was 4 months and he has been sick aol the time viruses and ear infections. There is a huge turnaround for staff, the place is unsanitary and the staff has no real childhood education except for maybe cpr training. They dont care about the kids at all but only money. One young worker who was in my son's infant class when he was only 6 months complaigned that he screamed all the time. I quickly reported her and they got rid of her within a day. That still didnt change the mess in the daycare. They ran out of room in the infant class so they quickly moved all the kids 8 months and up to the toddler class room with no adjustment period. My son is having a hard time with the quick change to his new class and he now cries uncontrollably when i drop him off in the new toddler room. Me and my husband was trying to hold out to prevent him from going to a whole new daycare because we plan to put him in a montessori school when he turns 18 months but we cant hold out anymore. Enough is enough. The Tutortime daycare is the worse and the kids all are sick with viruses diarrhea and vomiting.

Atlanta/Smyrna Location is great!
Posted by jking08 on 04/16/2008
I am saddened to read the previous reviews about other locations. I recommend contacting the Regional Director with your concerns. My daughter is 2 years old and in the Twaddler class. She and I are pleased with her school. Her classroom is clean and visually stimulating. The curriculum is engaging. I am provided daily progress reports which list Potty training progress. eating habits, sleeping habits (naps), what the children worked on each day, etc. This helps me to know the things that I may need extra reinforcement with at home. The teachers are caring and encouraging. My child is happy, she is learning and growing, and that makes me happy.
I visited the center three times unannounced and had tours each time before having my child once again visit with me. I decided to enroll her and at first there was the adjustment period. After that it was smooth sailing for us. I have never had any major concerns and if I needed to address any issue, my questions were answered with courtesy and professionalism. The tuition is also reasonable. I Iwould rate this location four stars. If I were not comfortable with the level of expertise of the staff, the level of care and the level of learning I would snatch my child out withour hesitation.
