We have created a safe place where our youngest children are nurtured and loved. We are committed to sharing God’s word in a creative and caring manner. Through these early years of spiritual training we hope to build the spiritual foundation that will inspire him/her to make the everlasting connection with Jesus Christ. We pray for a loving Christian atmosphere and for the understanding and cooperation of all of us as we work together for the good of your child and that everything we do, be for God’s glory.
What to Bring
To help make this the happiest time possible for your child, please include the following items when packing your child’s diaper bag:
-
3 diapers, if diaper rash medication/ointment or powder is to be used, please notify nursery team member upon arrival
-
A prepared bottle—or formula, water and instructions if bottle is to be mixed at the time of feeding. For our nursing mothers we have a private area located in our nursery complete with rocking chairs, changing tables, and live video feed of the service.
-
Personal items such as pacifiers, sipee cups, blankets, etc. Please label all of these with the child’s first and last name. (You can get preprinted labels at the check-in station. Just ask for an asset tag when checking in.)
-
A complete change of clothing including a pair of socks.
-
Special snacks if needed. Please make the caregiver aware that you have included this in the bag.
Arrival & Check-in
When you arrive, please take your child to a check-in location. By the way, if you have children other ages as well, you can check them all in at once at any check-in kiosk. We use a computerized check-in system for the greatest security for your child. A KidzWorld team member will apply an adhesive name tag to your child’s back and also to any diaper bags or other items, and you will be given a receipt with a unique code on it. Once you have completed check-in, please take your child to Baby Bay where a warm and friendly KidzWorld team member will meet you and receive your child and diaper bag. Please make the greeter aware of any special information that will help in the care of your child such as feeding times, snacks, naps, diaper changes, allergies, etc. In order to provide a positive and secure environment in Baby Bay, rooms close 10 minutes after the service begins.
Pick-up Procedure
We ask that you pick up your child no later than 15 minutes after the service. Upon return to the nursery, we will ask you to present your receipt that you received at check-in. We will verify the receipt with the unique code on your child’s label and then release your child to you. If you do not have your receipt, we will ask you to present a form of photo ID and the Baby Bay director will have the authority to authorize the release of your child. We hope you understand that we give the safety and protection of your child our top priority and therefore, we allow no exceptions to the arrival and pick-up identification procedures.
Good Health
Children who show signs or symptoms of fever or any contagious disease should not be brought to Baby Bay or Adventure Avenue. Please ask one of our volunteers for a detailed copy of our Healthy Child Policy.
Special Needs
Yes, your child can be a part of KidzWorld nursery. Upon arrival, please speak with our Nursery Director, Colleen Mahannah, regarding any special needs your child may require during their stay in KidzWorld nursery. Or if you prefer, you may call ahead and make an appointment to meet with Colleen to discuss the special needs of your child.
Opportunities for Parents
KidzWorld nursery believes the best way for parents to be involved in what their child is learning is to become a part of the KidzWorld team that teaches your child. We strongly believe that everyone should "Worship One and Serve One." That means that each person grows best when they worship in one service per week and then serve in one ministry per week.
