What To Bring
When packing a diaper bag for your child, please include the following items:

1. Two or three disposable diapers or Pull-ups.

2. Pacifier or other item, should your child need it for security.

3. A complete change of clothes in case your child would require that.

4. Bottle (if they still require it) and a zippy cup.

Please label all personal items with your child's first and last name before arriving at your child's class. This helps us keep track of your child's items.

Your Child's Health
We operate a well-baby program. For the protection of all the children in our ministry we cannot accept a child with a runny nose, fresh cold (four days or less), fever, rash, persistent cough, diarrhea or any other signs of illness. We request that you not place your child in the program while they are at risk of exposing other children. Thank you in advance for helping us keep our Children's Ministries program a healthy place for all. We do offer a calming room where you can tend to your child and watch the service.

When You Arrive At Your Child's Room
A leader will meet you at the check-in area to receive your child and any other necessary items. Please check in and note any information that will help in caring for your child such as feeding times, sleeping times, allergies and special needs.

At the time of check-in, a leader will greet you and allow you to sign in your child. Your child will be given a name badge and his/her name on it and assigned number. You will receive a badge that has your family's name and the same assigned number as your child. Should we need you during service your child's assigned number will flash on the monitors located to the left and right side of the platform. A child will not be released without presentation of the parents corresponding badge.

Snacks
Snacks are provided for the children during our schedule classroom snack time. The food items consist of goldfish, vanilla wafers and apple juice. If your child has an allergy, please inform the leader when you check in your child.

Curriculum
We believe even our littlest ones can learn! Planned lessons are taught and reinforced with songs, crafts, play and supervised activities designed with the ability of the children in mind. Children are given a take home worksheet that includes what they have learned that day and weekly family devotion guide. Every fifth (5^th) Sunday of the month is fun Sunday. Fun Sunday includes special games, movies and snacks.

Saying Good-bye
After you have completed the check-in process, simply wave a quick good-bye and leave for the worship service. As you know, it is normal for little ones to cry when leaving a parent. This does not last long, and separation becomes easier over time. Our leaders will immediately try to create interest in a toy or activity and give assurance that you will return after the worship service is completed. If your child cries for an extended period of time of 10 minutes, we will page you.

Checking On Your Child
Feel free to check on your little one at any time during the worship service. However, we ask that you do so discreetly, trying not to let your child see you.

Pick-up Procedures
Your child's leader will expect the same person to drop off and pick up each child unless special instructions are given at check-in. Please make sure that all your child's personal items have been returned to you before you leave the premises.

Calming Room
A calming room has been created if you are called out of service for any reason to take care of your child. This room has been designed so you can comfort your child and view the main sanctuary service.
