Tutor Time

When we moved to Castaic in August we searched all over for a home daycare for our 4 y/​o son because that’s what type of care he was in. We interviewed a handful of potential daycare people only to find that they are more along the lines of baby sitters. Our son came from the best home daycare ever. One of the only reasons we didn’t want to leave Simi Valley. But with seeing what was out there we decided to check out tutor time & when we walked in we saw a group of boys our sons age interacting with eachother & having fun, we thought our son needs to be part of that group. So we signed up.
Our son is happy to go everyday. Every morning he is greeted with a hug by Ms. Sharon, it makes him & me both smile. Ms. Rachel is awesome & I feel she truly likes our son (it’s not just a show). He talks about you everyday, all good stuff I promise. The director is also really nice & very informative.
Our son gets to bring homework home on Mondays that is due on Friday. While it’s not mandatory, it’s still fun for him because he likes to show us what he can do, like write his name, or tracing the letter of the week, and finding stuff around the house that begins with that letter. It also makes him feel like a «big boy» because he gets to do homework with his 2 sisters that are in elementary school.
Thanks tutor time for making our transition to Castaic a lot easier & providing a great «home» feeling for our son. We see him coming home with learning new things all the time.

I would like to start off by saying that the thought of putting my child in daycare terrified me. However, Tutor Time definitely changed my view of daycare. When I was pregnant with my second child I started looking into possibilities for daycare for my two-​year-​old because my mom (who had been taking care of him at home) expressed that taking care of two kids would be very difficult for her. When I took a tour of the place I felt right at home. The place was very clean everyone was very friendly.
My son has benefited so much from being at Tutor Time and they made me feel very comfortable and confident in leaving my son there.
A few months after my son was attending tutor time I was faced with having to enroll my second son of only five months in the infants room at Tutor Time. I was very scared at having my baby in a daycare setting but now I look back and laugh at that fear because my son has developed so well there. From sensory play/​learning to cuddling, I know my child is loved and well cared for. They take the time to get to know what he likes vs dislikes and that is something that truly touches my heart.
The attention and care that my two boys get it at Tutor Time is priceless. I love knowing that my boys will have a day filled with play, learning, exploring, resting, healthy eating and so much more!
I will be honest and say that if it wasn’t for Tutor Time I wouldn’t have all the cute crafts my boys made because I am not creative enough to do so many of the things they have done.
If you are on the fence about the type of daycare you are looking for I highly recommend you take a tour of Tutor Time!

Tutor Time is the most amazing place for my daughter to come for after school care. I hesitated for many years in putting my daughter in after school care relying on family members for picking up after school. Now my daughter gets her homework done, she has time to play games with friends, she rehearses new dance routines, all with the support and loving guidance from Mrs Nicki the most fabulous teacher in the world. The other thing I like is that Mrs Nicki is like a peer counselor in the way she helps the children relate to each other, doesn’t allow children to be picked on or pick on the others. It such a positive environment for my daughter to be in after school, our family made the right choice with Tutor Time Castaic!

MY KIDS LOVE CASTAIC TUTOR TIME! They have been with Tutor Time for over 8 years now. Our journey began when my first born was 2.5 years old. Like many new mothers, I was hesitant to leave my toddler in an unfamiliar facility with complete strangers. I visited a few daycare centers in Santa Clarita. All the programs and curriculum looked impressive on paper, but it really depends on the staff and teachers to connect with and motivate the kids. We chose Castaic Tutor Time because my child showed the most interest in the Twaddler teacher and her classroom. Through the years, we’ve gotten to know and trust the staff and teachers. The programs effectively prepared my kids for the academic and social transition into grade school. I would like to praise Ms. Nicki for making learning interesting and engaging as well as providing guidance in social behavioral challenges. My kids look forward to be in her classroom everyday after school. Best of all, they would finish all their homework before I pick them up after work. During the summer break, my kids enjoy Tutor Time’s Summer Camp which is always full of educational and fun activities/​field trips.

Today I wrote my review and for whatever reason Unilocal does not want to allow it! If people are trying to review places and get helpful information then why not allow the post’s be allowed by everyone?
I chose this school for many reasons and stability was one of them. My son has been at the Tutor Time in Castaic for a year now and I have seen him grow in many ways with his teachers Ms. Kendra, Ms. Rachel and staff. I too have grown and created a bond with his teachers and staff along with the assistant director Ms. Alicia whom I think has a heart of gold and love for her job and the children. Because of them I have made MANY donations to this school. (Summer time fun, school parties, etc. Well that will stop as of now!). Since this past year, I have seen many teachers, staff and directors come and go like a revolving door which makes me extremely uncomfortable considering the fact that this is a school that is suppose to provide a stable environment for our children (well that is what I was told when I originally toured the school), yet how can you stand by your word and provide «stability» when all corporate seems to care about is themselves. Yesterday I just learned that the assistant director, Ms. Alicia is being transferred to another school. That will now make it 4 directors and 1 assistant director gone in just one year! I can’t understand how corporate would even consider transferring anyone at this time during the school year. My son already has an issue with change and for this to continue to keep happening has me really concerned and I am seriously thinking about removing him from this school and put him in a more stable environment where there is better structure! The sad thing is that my son has gained and grown close with his friends and gets along with everyone. Unless corporate doesn’t want to change their ways, you child/​children along with yourself will constantly see new teachers, staff and directors!

What an amazing school my daughter is so happy and loves her two amazing teachers. Ms Brittany an Miss Julie have been a light to not only our child but to our family. They show so much pride in there work an we couldn’t be happy with this school. Can’t wait till next years big kid class with Ms. Nikki

I had a review on here and it disappeared. I wonder how?
Do yourselves a favor and go elsewhere.
Edit from filtered reviews full review
I had my daughter here and was very disturbed with how my daughter and other kids were treated.
1^st– my daughter crying hysterical when I picked her up at noon. I asked the «Aid» why and she said in broken English «I told her she had to nap and she wanted to play» I told her «She doesn’t nap and her „teacher knows this“. Plus I’m picking her up why would you put her to sleep when I’m picking her up in 10 min.
2^nd — Every time I picked her up she either was saturated or poop in her diaper. I mean really? Its caked to her sore Bum! They know what time I’m coming, Check her!!!
3^rd– I picked up my daughter and as I was putting her in the car I noticed her pants were almost dry with urine!!! She was in it for such a long time the jean material and fuzz was stuck on her skin! I was furious. Unacceptable
4^th– it’s a daycare where we were looking for more educational.
5^th-​I was there at 2 separate 0ccations and I heard the „Aid“ with the trach yelling at the children 1-​» to go to sleep’ and 2 to «go potty!» She didn’t notice I was there and I was very upset with this and decided our child will not be going here.
6^th– I never received my daughters daily reviews till a week later. Isn’t it law to have the review of the day when you pick up you child?
7^th my daughter would not enter a room if one specific lady was in there… it worried me. She NEVER was like that… it got to a point that something was sitting right and I pulled her out.
Don’t get me wrong there are some very nice people in this facility but it wasn’t for us. I’m not a fan that their «teachers» are not educated with Master degrees. It’s a glorified daycare. I guess we didn’t understand the way it worked.

My daughter has been attending Tutor time since she was 5mos. She absolutely loves all the ladies here. Although I was very skeptical about putting her in a childcare, I had no choice I have to work! That’s one thing that has always worried me. is who will take care of my kids that I can trust while we’re at work. But you can rest assure your child will be loved and well educated at Tutor time. We are expecting our next baby and I am relieved to know that I will have Tutor time for my childcare needs.

From the day my son walked into Tutor Time he has loved it! The center director and assistant director are very warm and welcoming and really make you feel like a part of a family. I know that everyday he walks into his classroom, he will have a day filled with excitement and adventures. Whether he is outside on a scavenger hunt or inside during circle time its a day of learning through new discoveries. Miss Katie and Miss Nicki are EXTRAORDINARY TEACHERS!

Loving Tutor Time!!! Everyone is so nice and great with the children. My lil girl actually gets upset when it’s time to go home… That’s really saying something. I love all the activities the kids do and all the art projects that come home.
It puts me at ease knowing that my lil one is safe, happy, and learning while I’m at work.
