nursery

Our nursery’s mission is to provide a safe, loving environment nurturing the earliest stages of your child’s faith and well-being. We offer more than just babysitting for our infants and toddlers with curriculum that centers on the love of Jesus through songs, prayer, lessons, presence and playtime.

Who: Nursery child care is provided for infants through the age of three.

When: Sunday mornings at the 8:00 and the 10:30 service.

Where: Classroom A

Parents are welcome to pick up their child at the Passing of the Peace so their family can worship and have Holy Communion together.

Nursery FAQ’s

  • Our nursery is attended by experienced and nurturing Christ Church team members. Each of our staff and volunteers has undergone screening and completed the Safe Church Training Program, a training process that is accompanied by expert advice, policy development, and resources from experienced child protection practitioners.

  • At the time of check-in, a nursery staff member will greet you. You will be asked to sign in and provide us with a cell phone number.

If your child cries, our caring nursery staff will immediately soothe your child.
