My name is Melissa Smith. I am from Lapel originally. I actually grew up 4 houses down from the daycare, and my Dad still lives there. Beth and I have been friends since kindergarten. I graduated from Lapel in 1999, and went on to Marian College to study Social Studies and Secondary Education. I graduated in 2003. I married my husband Greg in 2003. He’s also a Lapel grad. We now live in Westfield. I joined the daycare staff in 2020. Prior to that, I was home raising my children for 13 years. Gabe is 15 and in 9th grade. Evan is 12 and in 7th grade. Our 3 little ones are Leo, Henry and Charlotte. They are 8 years old and starting 3rd grade. They are quadruplets. Our 4th baby, our son Max, passed away when he was a few days old. I was actually working part time at Beth’s Blessings when I was pregnant in 2013. I had to quit when I found out I was having 4 babies, once it became impossible to be on my feet all day. So it seems only fitting that I'm back now that my babies are grown! I look forward to meeting each one of you, and getting to know your children. I love teaching and working each day with my best friend!
Miss Ally My name is Ally Byerly and I've been working for Beth now for almost 3 years now. I've worked with kids in either preschool or childcare for about 8 years. I legitimately remember being a little kid and always wanting to be a teacher and as I've grown in my journey, I love being the person to provide safety and love to littles and being a source for their education! I'm 27 and I'm married to my sweet husband, Tim. I spend my free time going on walks with my 2 dogs, spending time with my family and participating in different activities at church! I've loved every minute of watching these amazing kiddos grow!
Miss Cierra My name is Cierra! I have been working with Beth for almost a year now! Crazy how fast time flies! It has been such a fun time being here! I am from an area not far from Lapel. It’s a little town called Perkinsville. Some may know the town for the famous bar in town, Bonges! I previously worked at Frankton Elementary in the before/after school program for 4 years before coming to Beth’s. I really enjoy hanging around all of the kids. Outside of work I love spending my spare time at the barn with my horse. Her name is Phoenix. When I’m not at the barn, I love to be at home watching a good tv show or movie on Netflix. I hope this kind of tells you a little bit about me and who I am! I have enjoyed my time here so much and love being with all of the kiddos!
