Questions about WESTkids?
FIRST TIME GUESTS
We are ready to serve your family and help your child get settled into WESTkids. On your first Sunday you will check in at our Kids Ministry manned Check In Station. We will ask contact information, birthdates and any allergies of your child. Safety is VERY important for our program! You will be given a name tag for your child and a pick-up tag with a security code that matches your child’s name tag. One of our Welcome Team will gladly help you find the class location, assist you with the drop-off process and explain the pick-up process.
What if I lose the pick-up tag for my child?
If you lose the pick-up tag with security code, the group leader will ask you to visit the manned station to reprint a tag. Good idea: some of our parents take pictures of their tags, which is totally okay to use for pickup.
What if my child needs me?
If your child should need you during programming, we will text you via the parent cell phone number given at registration.
Are there resources to help me follow up on what my child is learning?
We’re so glad you asked! Many times, you will be given resources upon pickup to help guide you as parents. We also will have resources available that are printed for you. We also communicate with parents through email and social media.
Who will teach my child?
We have the most amazing leaders! These groups are leaders committed to helping your child have the best morning of their week. Our policies require every group has at least two leaders. Each leader also has undergone a background check and training for their role in WESTkids. We want every parent to feel an overwhelming assurance that your child is safe and loved while they are in WESTkids!
SUNDAY MORNING
NURSERY
birth - 3 years & those not potty-trained
It is our desire to ensure a safe and loving environment for infants and children to learn about the God who created them while you enjoy peace of mind as you worship, learn, and grow spiritually. Our nursery is so much more than childcare, we follow the Brite* Curriculum designed specifically for this age that follows along our preschool and elementary age curriculum. We provide care during both the 9:30 and 11:00 service times. We will promote potty trained kids quarterly into our preschool environment.
What to Bring: A diaper for toddlers and a diaper/diaper bag for babies. We provide the wipes.
Nursing Mothers’ Room: If you need access to the Nursing Room please see the Nursery Check In for access.
