Hope Nursery
Learn about the safe spaces that we cultivate
for your children to encounter God for themselves
A safe place for your little ones, while you enjoy your safe space
Hope Nursery is designed for children ages 0-3 and takes place during both of our Sunday morning services. Our Nursery is a place where your little ones can begin to grow up in the church and start their learning journey in Christ. Our nursery is equipped with toys, age appropriate snacks, cribs, and rocking chairs so your little ones can be comfortable.
Check-In Process
Before Service
Before Service (or during service) you can check-in your child to the Nursery. There you will sign your child in and receive a card that has an identification number on it corresponding to your child.
During Service
In the event that we need to contact you during the service, The nursery will place your child’s identification code (the number card you received upon check in) on the lower right hand corner of the screens in the sanctuary. We ask that you exit the sanctuary immediately and head to the nursery.
After Service
After the service is complete, you can check your child out of nursery. To check your child out of nursery you will need to turn in your identification number card to the Nursery Leaders. The number on the card must match the number assigned to your child. You will also be prompted to sign out your child after your identification card has been turned in. It is important for your child’s safety that the same person who checks in your child must be the same person who checks out your child.
First Time at Nursery
Here's what to expect when visiting Hope Nursery for the first time
First, head to our Nursery area. There you will be prompted to sign your child up and to sign your child into the nursery. Don't worry, someone will be there to help you through the process.
Upon checking in for the first time, we will ask for the following personal information (NOTE: We value your privacy and will not share this information with anyone)
Parent/guardian name(s)
Child's name
Any special instructions (allergies, special needs) for your children
If your attending Hope Church for the first time and you're not yet ready to drop your child off in the nursery, that's completely okay! Feel free to bring them into the service with you until you're ready to take that next step.
