Childcare & Nursery
Our Nursery Ministry offers a caring introduction to God's community.
Sunday Morning
Childcare is offered each Sunday from 8:50 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. for children two and younger. The nursery is divided into four groups: the Crib Room, the Crawlers Room, the Toddler Rooms, and the Two-Year-Old Rooms. When we reach 12 children in any one room, these groups are subdivided into additional rooms. Each nursery room is supplied with age appropriate toys and books.
The Crib Room is for infants, crawlers are next door in the Crawler Room and Walkers move to the Toddler Room. Parents need to sign in when they bring their children and are asked to properly label all diaper bags, cups, lids, bottles, etc.
We want children from an early age to hear and experience God's love for them through our nursery ministry. Teachers visit the two year-olds during the 10:00 a.m. Sunday school hour for a 15-20 minute age appropriate lesson.

Other Nursery Times
Nursery Staff is available for all Worship services except for 11:00 p.m. Christmas Eve. This includes Wednesday Worship as well as Sunday. Other occasions where childcare may be available include some Presbyterian Women's events, Bible studies and special lecture series. For questions about specific events, please refer to FirstNews or call the church office.
Security
A safe, nurturing environment is a primary concern for the church. We address security by having paid staff and Parent Helpers in childcare areas, by having a sign-in system and by using numbered safety tags. In addition, professional safety personnel are on the church campus each Sunday morning.
