Peanut Butter and Jelly Daycare in Pelham Parkway has served Bronx families for 16 years.

Owner Priscilla Melo opened the home‑based day care to provide quality child care in her neighborhood.

With support from WHEDco’s Home‑Based Childcare Program, she offers a safe, trusted place for children to learn and grow close to home.

WHEDco Supports more than 300 licensed child care providers just like Melo in the Bronx and over 2,500 informal child care providers citywide.
