We believe that the foundations of faith are laid at the earliest ages. Using age-appropriate activities and curriculum, children are taught basic Bible stories and principles. Since children learn better by doing than by listening, the teaching at this level is extremely active and hands-on. Games, crafts, and snacks support the Bible lesson each week.
Safety & Security
One of our highest priorities is the safety and security of the children placed in our care. Toys & decorations are evaluated for safety and regularly checked for recalls. Each of our staff undergoes an Act 34 check (used by schools in PA) before being allowed to serve. Ongoing staff training is provided through periodic meetings, required reading, and other methods. An adult leader patrols the hall and observes during each Sunday Morning service.
Please notify us of any medical needs (allergies, medications, etc.) that may affect your child’s ability to participate in classroom activities.
Also, please notify us of any ongoing custody issues that we may need to be aware of.
Registration & Check-in
In order to ensure safety during pick-up / drop-off times, we observe a strict registration and check in/out policy. All visitors must report to the registration center in the Children’s Lobby and fill out a registration form.
Each child (birth – age 5) will receive a number and each parent will receive a corresponding card. In an emergency or if parental attention is needed, this number will be used to summon the parent from the auditorium. The number will appear in the black boxes located to the back and to the side of the stage. This card will be needed to retrieve your child from their class. NO CHILD WILL BE RELEASED TO ANY ADULT WHO DOES NOT HAVE THEIR CARD! If you lose your card, please go to the Registration Center and see a staff member.
Well Child Policy
If a child has a runny nose, persistent cough, fever, rash, or any other signs of illness we will ask the parent to keep their child with them. If the Nursery Leader notices this during the service, parents will be paged.
