We believe that a child’s first experiences at church should be positive and nurturing. That’s why we’ve created a loving, safe, and fun environment for our youngest members. Here’s what you can expect when you bring your child to our nursery.

Location Our nursery is located on the lower level of the church. For security, the door to the nursery area remains locked during services. Simply ring the doorbell, and one of our workers will be happy to welcome you and your child. If you need to check on your child during the service, you can use the same doorbell to get a worker’s attention.

Hours The nursery is open on Sunday mornings during both our Sunday School hour and the worship service. We also offer nursery care on Wednesday evenings from 5:30 PM to 7:00 PM during the school year, coinciding with our other children’s and youth activities.

Ages & Activities Our nursery serves children from birth through preschool age.

• Infants & Toddlers (Birth – Age 3): You are welcome to have your youngest children in the nursery for the entire duration of the service, but please know we support whatever works best for your family.
• Preschoolers: Preschool-aged children typically begin the worship service with their families. Partway through the service, all children (through 3rd grade) are dismissed for an age-appropriate worship time. At that time, an adult leader will escort our preschoolers to the nursery for their own lesson, while the older children head to their Children’s Church class.

Our Commitment to Safety Your child’s safety is our top priority. When you drop off your child for the first time, we will ask you to complete a short registration form with important contact information. Our safety policies ensure that:

• There are always at least two adults present with the children.
• Every volunteer and staff member who works with children has passed a thorough background check.

Our nursery is staffed by a dedicated team of paid workers and trusted volunteers. Many have served in our children’s ministry for years and take great joy in providing a secure and caring environment where your child can learn about the love of Jesus.
