“No day can be so sacred but that the laugh of a little child
will make it holier still.”
~ Robert Ingersoll
Nursery (children 2 and under on August 1, 2011)
For the youngest of children, loving nursery care is provided by qualified and screened childcare workers. Our nursery opens at 8:30 on Sunday morning and remains open until 12:30 pm. Children in the nursery will discover a fun array of books, puzzles, toys, and most importantly, hugs each and every week.
Parents wishing to keep infants with them are welcome to take them into the sanctuary for worship (at their discretion).
Our nursery workers are Noel Burke and Ashley Spargo. Click here to learn more about Noel and Ashley.
For more information about the nursery, please contact Christie Lee.
Preschool
Preschool children (2 and older by August 1) are encouraged to get involved in the opportunities each Sunday to begin discovering their self-identity, their connection with others, and the wondrous world around them. We offer age-appropriate stories and activities, led by volunteer teachers, each Sunday during the 9:30 and 11:00 services which are based on two Unitarian Universalist preschool curriculums; Celebrating Me & My World and We Are Many, We Are One.
So what are young children learning about? Below is a sampling:
- Developing a positive self-image
- Cooperative skills (sharing, listening, taking turns, etc.)
- Nature and their connection to other living things
- The church as a place of acceptance and friendship
- Holidays and celebrations
We invite all preschool age children (and parents) to become involved in the program. For more information, or to register for classes, please contact Christie Lee.
