Melrose Day Care Center was established in       
 April 1971, successfully accredited in 1997, and    
 has been providing quality day care for 36 years. 

 “…The gold standard of approval is accreditation by the National Association for the Education of Young Children. NAEYC carefully evaluates schools and childcare centers based on curriculum, teacher qualifications, class size, and health and safety standards; only about 8 percent of U.S. preschools  are currently accredited.…”
Parents Magazine - February 2007

       We are committed to being more than a 'care-taking' 
   service and have a deep concern for the total child.

     We foster in the child a sense of security, continuity,
trust, autonomy, initiative and pride.
