Lodgic Kids Camp provides quality licensed childcare that’s flexible for modern families. Full-time, part-time, or scheduled hourly childcare is available for children up to 12 years old. We're here to serve families in need of childcare, preschool, and/or assistance with remote learning facilitation for schoolagers. We provide care for before and after school or over school breaks, appointments, or date nights. Choose the enrollment plan that suits your specific needs.
We are currently open Monday through Friday, from 7 am to 6 pm, with additional Friday Night Care available on Friday evening from 6:30 - 10 pm. Reach out to learn more about weekly passes, COVID-19 health safety and responsible socialization practices, and current availability.
Our unique philosophy comes from more than 100 years of caring for children. We balance learning and fun throughout the day, using each experience to develop social and emotional skills. Every child will learn through safe discovery and fun exploration in a setting that parents can trust. For your schoolagers, our teachers and programming allow for facilitation of their remote learning needs.

Over the last 8 years, Melissa has worked as a lead teacher in childcare in the Champaign-Urbana community, including at La Petite Academy and The Caring Place with Carle Foundation. She received her Associates in Early Childhood Education from Parkland College and her Bachelors in Childcare Education from Eastern Illinois University, where she graduated magna cum laude. She is Director-Qualified with the Illinois Department of Child and Family Services, and she has obtained both her Early Childhood Education Level 2 Credential and School Age and Youth Development Level 1 Credential through the Illinois Gateways Registry. Currently, she is working to finalize her Illinois Director Credential through Gateways as well.
Melissa is passionate about early childhood education and works continuously to expand her knowledge of developmentally appropriate practices in the classroom, as well as her own professional development, to provide quality care to families and children. Outside of childcare, she enjoys spending time with her family, drawing, and exploring the outdoors with her three young children.
Our children absolutely love Kids Camp and talk about going there almost every day. The teachers have taken a genuine interest in our kids and getting to know them.
Our family uses Lodgic Kids Camp as I work from home and my husband is a semi driver. Sometimes, I just need a little time to myself. And date night was very much needed as my husband and I see each other only two days a week. When we come to pick our kids up, they are always laughing and smiling!
The location is perfect, and I feel absolutely confident leaving my daughter in their care — from being fed wonderful and fresh square meals to protecting the children's health during these times. I am super-grateful Lodgic Kids Camp was able to remain open under IDPH guidelines and regulated hours.
