Mehan's Home Day Care

A little about Mary Mehan...

Background Info

I started my home day care business in 1988, and received my license the following year. I hold certificates in First Aid, CPR, Special Care Series, and the Applebaum Training Institute. I also have a bachelor’s degree in psychology that includes courses in Early Childhood Development, Educational Psychology, Exceptional Child, and Human Development. Some of my credit hours are in experiential learning for my years as a home day care provider. My day care is contracted with The Child and Adult Care Food Program through the USDA, and I receive 15 hours of continued education each year. I believe my job is to guide and enhance the daily lives of the children I interact with.

Why Choose Mehan's As Your Home Day Care?

What makes me different? Here are the main focuses...

  • Help children create a sense of autonomy by being sensitive to the individual needs of the child.
  • Help children grow in their awareness of others and community.
  • Maintaining a healthy working relationship with the day care parents is something I take very seriously.
  • Back yard neighbor with St. Agnes School (It’s a great location).
  • Strong educational background and many years of experience.
