Mel's Daycare

3909 E Treaty Line Rd. Portland, IN

< 1 mi

I am the mother of 3 children. My oldest is an 8 yr old second grader. Next is my 5 yr old currently in pre-k and third is my 2 year old that is home with me. I am a 2003 graduate of Harrison College with an AAS in Accounting. My most recent position was held at UPS as a supervisor. The hours and distance to UPS just did not work well with our family's needs and it was a struggle for us to find childcare, so that intrigued me to start a daycare in my home. I am currently taking classes to become a Certified Home Daycare and will pursue my license once I start establishing care for families. My mother had a daycare in her home for 15 years, so I have always been around children. My goal is to provide a fun, loving and educational day just as if your children were home with you! I provide before and after school care as well. I am willing to be as flexible as I can with the hours, so just give me a call!
