Nursery
 
Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, ... for the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to such as these." -- Matthew 19:14

Welcome to the All Saints' nurseries! Our nurseries are a ministry for infants and toddlers founded on the love of Jesus Christ. We strive to create an environment that reflects God's love and is safe and secure for them. We offer two different nurseries for your children: one for infants, birth to just walking, and another for steady waltkers up to three years of age.

The All Saints’ Nursery is staffed by our paid staff personnel. From time to time we utilize some of our older teens on a periodic basis. They are also paid, but the money is put into their mission trip fund accounts. All of these people will treat your child with love and respect. Your child will be called by his or her name. Your child will be held and comforted when necessary, and if your child is inconsolable, we will try to locate you.

The Infant Nursery

Our Infant Nursery is located immediately off the sanctuary level with easy access for parents and guardians. It is staffed by a well-trained group of rotating adult volunteers, and is open each Sunday morning during the 9:15 and 11:00 a.m. services. (Infants may be placed in the Toddler Nursery during the 7:45 a.m. service.) The Infant Nursery is also open for special holiday services, such as at Christmas.

The Infant Nursery is equipped with rocking chairs, a diaper changing table, extra supplies such as diapers, baby wipes, cribs, simple toys, quiet instrumental music, and soft blankets for playing on the floor. It also has a paging system. Parents are given a numbered pager so that they can be reached if needed. Parents are welcome in this nursery for the purposes of nursing, feeding, changing, or comforting their babies.

The Toddler Nursery

Our Toddler Nursery is located on the upper level with immediate access to the sanctuary balcony. It is staffed by trained paid Nursery Care Workers, and is open each Sunday morning during the 7:45, 9:15, and 11:00 a.m. services. The Toddler Nursery is also open at other times when childcare is needed, such as during various educational opportunities and fellowship events. It is also open for special holiday services, such as at Christmas

The Toddler Nursery is equipped with toys and books suitable for various toddler ages, a diaper changing table, extra supplies such as diapers, baby wipes, a table and chairs for play and for snack time (graham crackers and apple juice only), comfortable chairs for holding and comforting children, and a TV-VCR for toddler appropriate Bible videos. It also has a paging system. Parents are given a numbered pager so that they can be reached if needed. Parents are welcome in this nursery for the purposes of nursing, feeding, changing, or comforting their toddlers.

In addition, on Sunday mornings we offer a program of Toddler Sunday School and Children's Church with simple games, songs, and activities.

Registering Your Child in Our Nurseries

When first visiting All Saints' Church, you will be asked to register your infants or toddlers to let us know more about your children and how you would like us to care for them.
