Children are precious at Woodcrest United Methodist Church! We strive to make a fun and stimulating environment conducive of learning and growing.
Our nursery is equipped to meet the needs of all children newborn to three years old. We provide snacks including animal crackers, goldfish, cheerios and various other snacks. Our nursery is staffed by paid, experienced and well trained caregivers who are certified in Safe Sanctuary training and are certified by the American Red Cross in CPR and First Aid.
We offer a safe and loving Christian atmosphere. Each of our nursery rooms is filled with age-appropriate toys, games and books. Our infant room has comfy cribs, swings and rocking chairs plus lots of loving arms to give your baby the finest care anywhere. The toddler room has age-appropriate toys to help with the development of a young toddler with access to changing tables as well as a bathroom for potty training.
Procedures
Upon arrival: Please sign in at the nursery reception desk. Also, note any special needs or allergies your child may have.
What to bring: Disposable diapers (two or more), baby wipes, pacifier (when applicable), bottles or cups, diaper bag labeled with child’s name.
Upon leaving: Children will be released only to parents or grandparents. When picking up your child, please sign out your child.
Maintaining a Healthy Environment: Our nursery takes the battle against communicable disease very seriously! Please be aware of signs of illness before coming to the nursery and please do not send children with symptoms of illness to the nursery. These symptoms include fever, green nasal discharge and diarrhea. Children must be fever free for 24 hours before returning to the nursery.
Each employee at the nursery has been trained in sanitation techniques. Employees wash hands regularly. Changing tables are completely sanitized after each use. The nursery rooms, equipment and toys are sanitized at the end of each day.
A healthy, sanitary environment is an important aspect of our goal in providing safe and loving child care.
We look forward to seeing you!
Nursery Director: Katrina Sciandra
