The purpose of the nursery is to provide a safe, loving, fun, and comfortable environment for both you and your child.  You are encouraged and welcome to help your child feel comfortable in the nursery by staying in the room as long as necessary.

  • Nursery is available for children ages 5 and under only at the 8:00 service and 2 and under only at the 9:15 and 10:45 services. If a class is available, we encourage the older toddlers and children to be involved in their own age groups.  On Sunday morning our nursery is located in Room 210 on the upper level of the church.  The nursery will be open 15 minutes prior to regular church services and approximately 15 minutes after church services. It is suggested that only one parent call for their child.  This will save confusion at the nursery door. 

  • All children must be signed into the room and be assigned a pager.  If your child needs your attention, you will be paged or located according to the information left on the registry.  Children will only be released to parents possessing a pager.

Health Policies

In order to insure the safety and health of other babies and the Nursery Attendants, please refrain from bringing your child if he/she has had any of the following symptoms within the last 24 hours:

  • Diarrhea
  • Vomiting
  • Fever
  • Rash
  • Open Sores
  • Runny Nose (anything but clear) 

If your child develops a fever or other symptoms. you will be asked to take your child home. No medications can be given to a child by a Nursery Attendant. 

We are striving to make the nursery as healthy and safe as possible.  Some ways we are doing this are by using rubber gloves for diaper changes, pagers, disinfecting the toys after use and enforcing our Health Policies. 

If you have any questions, please feel free to call the Cradle Care Coordinator, 303-690-9816 Ext. 252.
