"Little Sprouts" Nursery
Infant Nursery
Our well-baby program provides a nurturing and peaceful environment for babies who are not yet steady walkers. Nursing mothers may nurse in the Infant Nursery while enjoying the worship service via telecast during Saturday evening and Sunday morning services.
Infant Nursery is combined with Toddler Nursery on Saturday nights, during our 8:30AM Sunday worship service and on Wednesday evenings.
Toddler Nursery
Toddlers are cared for in a safe, child-friendly environment. Nursery care is available during ALL service times.
For more information on Nursery and Nursery ministry opportunities, please contact
Pastors Steve and Caren Petfield, Children's Pastors.
Toddler Sunday School
At 10:30AM on Sundays, we offer a dynamic Bible class to our toddlers. Nursery is available for our little ones from 10:00-10:30AM, at which time Sunday School begins.
In the summer months, Sunday School takes a sabbatical. For more information on Sunday School and Sunday School ministry opportunities, please contact Rosanna Sangermano, Sunday School Director.
What to Bring
When packing your child's diaper bag,
please include the following items:
~ Two or three disposable diapers.
No cloth diapers, please.

~ A complete change of clothes in case a need arises.
~ A bottle or cup of milk, formula, juice or water.
~ Please label all personal items with your child's first and last name.
Well-Care
We operate a well-baby program. For the protection of all the children, we kindly request your cooperation by not bringing in sick children. This would include a child with fever, diarrhea, vomiting or nausea. In addition, a child with a severe cough or sore throat, undetermined rash, congestion, non-clear runny nose or any communicable disease, cannot be accepted into the nursery until well or has been without fever or other symptoms for 24 hours. Thank you, in advance, for helping to keep all our children healthy!
Checking In
A leader will greet you at the check-in area to receive your child and his/her belongings. (Thank you for labeling all personal belongings.) Please sign-in and indicate on the form any information that will help in caring for your child. If you are a first-time guest, you will be asked to complete a registration form for your child. This information will help us to best care for your child.
Drop-Off and Pick-Up
After you have completed the check-in process, a quick and confident wave "goodbye" is best. It sends a reassuring message to your child. While leaving a crying child can be a difficult thing, it is normal for little ones to cry and it usually does not last long. Lingering in the classroom most often makes the transition more difficult for your child. Rest assured that our leaders will try to create interest in a toy or activity and give assurance that you will return after the service. If your child cries for an extended time, we will be sure to get you. In addition, a prompt pick-up is important. Young children tend to get nervous when parents are late.
