Nursery FAQs
-
The nursery is available for newborn to 5 years old. We have separate, age-appropriate rooms for infants (0 - 2 years), 2-3 year olds and 4-5 year olds.
-
Care is provided during all of the Sunday and Wednesday services.
-
Our workers are church regular church attenders who have experience and passion working with little ones.
Beginning fall 2024, all adults working with minors will be required to pass a background check. -
We have security cameras covering the infant nursery and nearby doorways, so we can see who is coming and going. Only pre-approved nursery workers are allowed to be with the children. Beginning fall 2024, all individuals working with minors will be required to pass a background check.
Our rooms are regularly cleaned, maintained, and baby-proofed. Toys are screened before entering the nursery to assure they are age-appropriate. Workers will monitor children closely during play. We do not feed babies snacks, so no need to worry about food allergies or contaminations (if you need baby to be fed during a service, please speak with one of the workers)
Additionally, workers are asked to wear a smock to protect baby from outside dirt, lotions, perfumes, etc. -
We understand leaving a child in the nursery can be stressful for parent and child alike. We want to make sure you are able to enjoy a service without worrying.
When you check baby in, they will get a sticker that coordinates with a specific pager (that we will give to you). You will take the pager into service with you. If we need you for any reason, your pager will light up / vibrate, and you can come down to the nursery to check on your baby.
Every parent has different expectations about when they should be contacted (crying, diaper change, feeding, cut/scrape). If it’s your child’s first time in the nursery, we will work with you to determine when you’d like to be paged.

You’re welcome to feed your little one wherever you are most comfortable. If you’d like privacy, we have a clean, quiet room available for your use (across from the main nursery).
Volunteers Needed!
We are a growing and active church with many young families. There is a huge need for nursery volunteers! Committing to be a volunteer means that you will be scheduled to help out approximately once a month for a quarter at a time (3 months).
If you would be willing to volunteer, let us know and we will be in touch with more info.
