NURSERY & TODDLER PROGRAMMING
We recognize that dropping off your little one can be overwhelming, especially if tears are shed (by either you or your baby). We hope this information helps ease the transition. Our dedicated volunteers love working with babies and toddlers and are fully trained to care for your child, allowing you to attend the service with the assurance that your child is receiving excellent love and care.
When you check in your child, you will receive 3 printed tags.
- Child's Tag - Many families place these tags on their children's backs so that little fingers don't peel them off.
- Guardian Tag - This tag has a unique code linked to your child's tag. Please attach it to your clothing to prevent loss. You'll need to present it when picking up your child. If the tag is lost, an authorized team leader will verify your identity.
- Personal Item Tag - Place this on your child's diaper bag. If you need extra tags for items like sippy cups and jackets we have extras available in the Toddler Room.
If you are expecting a new little one, we would love to know! Contact angeline@shelbychurch.org with your due date!

SNACK TIME
- We usually serve Goldfish and/or Cheerios to children who are able to walk independently. If we are going to serve something different, the information will be located outside of the classroom door.
- If your child has allergies or special dietary needs that prevent them from having the snack of the day, please inform the volunteer at check-in and bring an appropriate snack for your child.
MOVING UP
- When children are able to use the restroom independently, they are promoted to the Preschool Classroom.
- Our volunteers will communicate with you before this move takes place.
