How Learn As We Play was founded
Hi my name is Melissa Scott. I am the owner and Director of Learn As We Play child Care Center, LLC. My dream was always to open my own center one day. In 2008, after almost 20 years of working in the child care field I was given the wonderful opportunity to purchase the center I had already been a part of for over 10 years. I have now been in the field for over 30 plus years. I own my own center and still LOVE what I do. The saying "choose a job you love and you'll never have to work a day in your life" is how I feel everyday. I LOVE what I do and wouldn't change it for anything.
