Birth to 23 months
Our Nursery Team offers loving care in a safe, clean environment that supports your child’s physical, social, and spiritual growth.
Northwood Kids is designed to help children discover God’s Word in a creative, age-appropriate way. We provide a safe, fun, and encouraging environment where kids from birth through age eleven can learn about Jesus and build a strong foundation of faith.
WHAT TO EXPECT
When you arrive at one of our locations, a Northwood Team Member will be happy to help you find the Northwood Kids check-in area.
Check-In:
On your first visit, we’ll ask for some basic information, including parent/legal guardian names, children’s names and birth dates, address, phone number, and any special instructions such as allergies or special needs. This information helps us maintain a secure check-in system and allows us to contact you during the worship experience if needed.
Safety:
Your child’s safety is a priority. All Northwood Kids Team Members complete a background check, and we have a security process in place at each location. We use a secure check-in and pick-up tag system, along with a parent paging system, in case we need to reach you during the worship experience.
