About the Provider
Childhood memories. We are making them at the Kendallville Day Care Center. Childhood is a time for creativity, for imagination, and for discovery. It’s a time for knowing that it’s okay to make mistakes, that’s how we learn. As adults, we reflect on our childhood with great fondness. We remember the wonder of novelty, and cherish how life seemed a safe and simpler place. Every child deserves the opportunity to develop their individual potential. For over 35 years of service to families within the community, the Kendallville Day Care Center has devoted efforts to giving children opportunities to develop skills needed to face life’s challengers. Our mission is to provide the highest quality, not for profit, state licensed child care at the lowest possible cost to you.
