Nursery Ministry | Ministries | Valley Presbyterian Church

The Nursery Ministry is here to partner with parents to make disciples of our Covenant children by Following Christ Together.

We seek to love, nurture, support, and minister to both the children and their families. We strive to offer a secure environment, focused on providing a Gospel-centered fun atmosphere.

We know it is a privilege to care for your children, and we appreciate you giving us the opportunity to minister to them and your family!

Our Values:

Gospel-centered teaching (Hebrews 4:12)
Gospel-centered community (Ephesians 2:10, Acts 1:8, 2 Timothy 2:2)
Gospel-centered service (Romans 12:3-8, 2 Corinthians 9:11-13)

The Nursery Ministry has 4 classrooms for our little ones:

Infants: Children born September 1, 2022 through today
Toddler 1: Children born September 1, 2021 through August 31, 2022
Toddler 2: Children born September 1, 2020 through August 31, 2021
Toddler 3: Children born September 1, 2019 through August 31, 2020

Nursing Mothers' Room:

A Nursing Mothers' Room is available off the back of the sanctuary and the service is live streamed in the room.

Comfort Room:

Our Comfort Room is a controlled and intentionally created space that provides multi-sensory resources to support a child's sensory needs to enable them to engage in learning

The Comfort Room is available every Sunday morning during our worship service. Equipped with two chairs, a sensory swing, a small trampoline, fidget toys, and more. This space is a safe and calming environment.

Please contact someone from our Family Ministry Team for additional information. We want to customize a ministry plan for children that ensures they are safe and able to learn about Jesus, whatever their need.

We are so excited to see all of you and your little ones. Please contact me if you have any questions. I am happy to help!

Safety is important to us! We use a check-in system for all children. There is a child label with the information we need and a corresponding parent label used for pick up. We have an application procedure for all of our volunteers that includes training and complete background checks.

The children will have Lesson Time, Snack Time, and Play Time. We provide Goldfish, Animal Crackers, and sippy cups of water for snack time. Be sure to let us know if your child has any allergies. We are happy to accommodate special needs.

Please label all of your child’s belongings with their name, including the diaper bag and all inside, so we can be sure they get back to the rightful owner. We have diaper bag tags available if you would like one.

Please do not place your child in the nursery if they have displayed any signs of illness in the past 24 hours.

The Nursery is for newborns through children up to age 4. It is open on Sundays with Sunday Community Classes from 9:20 a.m. until the end of service, around noon, and open on Sundays without Sunday Community Classes from 10:30 a.m. until the end of service, around noon.
