I would not recommend sending your children here. My daughter was enrolled for 3-4 months. She was…read morepunched in the head twice by another student and no incident report was made both times. During this time my daughter was having extreme melt downs about going to school. The second time my daughter came home with a HUGE LUMP on her head and told us exactly whats been going on. A boy was punching her in the head. we called, talked to administrators, and talked to teacher Ms Paige in person. STILL NO INCIDENT REPORT WAS MADE and the teacher said basically she has no clue what we were talking about but she would keep an eye out. At this point i was in contact with a few employees besides the teacher on a personal level who confirmed exactly what happened and what child was doing this behavior to multiple kids and it was not being handled properly. They refused to refund the security deposit, charged us an additional two weeks that the security should have covered, then called us for more money staring we didn't pay for two weeks prior to withdrawing our daughter (impossible, we have all bank statements). Ella from billing was supposed to contact us and never did. We were supposed to be supplied with the owners phone number and email, and it never was given to us. We pulled our child because the program was ran horribly, not because we just decided to. Our child was not being protected which means we should have got our security deposit back, not it basically stolen from us than trying to charge an additional month. This place will scheme you right out of your money, take advantage of children's speech delays, and not take proper protocol to protect your children. On top of safety issues there are health issues where protocol is not being followed. Kids who are sick are never sent home even if they have a fever, coughing, and snot running down there face. In three months we got the flu twice, RSV twice, and Covid once. So your child will be consistently ill. MULTIPLE issues coming from every department in this place. Keep ur child safe and healthy- skip kiddie academy. The second i pulled my daughter from this place and put into a different preschool program she started thriving instead of declining in every area. I could only assume they stopped doing incident reports because another child had 18 of them with bodily injuries and no one had any answers. This is illegal and god only knows what has happened to my child during this duration of time since nothing was ever reported.

I would as my son what he learned and he would come home everyday and say "I don't know" there has been times where they are over ratio, they seem to just hire anybody. some with bad attitudes. They were very quick to tell me about my sons behavior but never any positive updates and or solutions. just seems like one big free for all there. my son would come home dirty, not put together at all. they do not take pride in the children and or what they do at Tutor Time. They would log in that he's eating and he'd come home with a full lunch box & even left old food sitting in a container for a week. they even suggested me getting my son evaluated instead of taking the time to work with him. I switched him to a new daycare and see a complete difference in his behavior and his learning. would not recommend this place
