What to Know

Checking In
When you arrive, please print off your child/children’s name tag/s at a computer kiosk. Once completed, please place your child/children’s name tag on their back and go to the nursery for drop-off. From there, staff and volunteers will get your child situated in the appropriate room or assist you in finding the correct room.

Illness
To provide a safe and healthy environment for all children and staff, you are asked to keep your child at home or with you for the following:

  • Fever, vomiting or diarrhea within the past 24 hours
  • Runny nose with any colored discharge
  • Sore throat
  • Contagious diseases, skin rashes or infections (i.e., hand, foot and mouth; impetigo; chickenpox, etc.
  • Any infection that has not been treated with antibiotics (i.e., strep throat or pink eye)
  • Lice

If your child develops symptoms while in the nursery, you will be contacted to come pick up your child.

Food
Meals are not offered in the nursery. If your child needs a snack while in the Nursery please make sure to label your items and let the nursery attendant know. To be cautious of allergies, please refrain from nut products. Thank you for your understanding!

Diapers
You are asked to leave a bag with any personal items your child may need during their time in the nursery. Please carefully label each item with your child’s first and last name.

Donations
Diapers: If you would like to donate diapers, we collect for our local pantries year round. You can bring unopened or opened diapers to help our local mission partners.

Gently Used Toys: If you have toys that you are looking to rehome, please reach out to us at [email protected] and we will see if our nursery or a local mission partner could be blessed by them.

Thank you for considering us!
