About Clubhouse Daycare in Lakeview Terrace
Clubhouse Daycare is a home-based daycare in Lakeview Terrace, California, built on more than a decade of experience working with children in educational and community settings. The daycare was created to give children a warm, safe, and personal space to grow, similar to what they might experience in an extended family. From the small group setting to daily routines, every part of the program reflects the belief that each child deserves patience, understanding, and individual attention.

Our Philosophy
At Clubhouse Daycare, we understand the significance of a child's formative years and the trust families place in us as caregivers. Our philosophy is rooted in the belief that every child deserves a nurturing, enriching, and safe space to grow, explore, and develop into their unique selves.
We firmly believe there is no such thing as a "bad kid." Every child is unique and deserving of understanding, patience, and respect. We aim to create an environment where children feel emotionally secure, encouraged to express themselves, and free to explore their imagination. Through thoughtfully designed activities and play, we aim to support opportunities for cognitive, social, and emotional growth.
Meet Our Founder
Mel, Founder of Clubhouse Daycare
Clubhouse Daycare was founded by Mel, whose Christian faith shapes her approach to caring for children. She views each child as a unique and deeply valued individual.
For more than a decade, Mel has worked with children through several organizations, including the Glendale Unified School District and the City of Glendale. Clubhouse Daycare grew out of her desire to create a place where children feel secure, celebrated, and cared for, not only physically but emotionally as well.
Meals at Clubhouse Daycare are homemade with organic ingredients, and each day is structured around creativity, guided routines, outdoor play, and meaningful moments together.
Children at Clubhouse Daycare are cared for by a small, trusted team of compassionate and experienced caregivers. The daycare maintains a low child-to-adult ratio so each child receives thoughtful attention and support throughout the day.
Clubhouse Daycare is preparing to welcome three additional caregivers, each chosen for their warmth, integrity, and dedication to caring for young children with patience and joy. Details about the new team members will be shared here soon.
