Creche

Sunday Mornings


We believe little ones should be valued in our community. We desire to see them discipled in an atmosphere of fun, love, celebration and commitment. Our Vision is that the children will learn more about who God is, they will experience the love of the Father and be inspired to follow Jesus. Children are welcome to stay in the service. There is a creche room available for children up to the age of 3 to use. During the 10.30am service children 1-3 years, who are confident walkers, are welcome to stay in the care of our dedicated volunteers in the creche. Or parents/carers are welcome to stay with their child and use the space as well.

What To Expect & FAQs

We welcome all families and children. Our goal is to make our groups as welcoming and accessible as possible. Parents/carers accompany their children in all our midweek groups and we can work together to find a place of belonging for everyone. Please give details of any additional needs or special requirements when you register, or get in touch to discuss questions and issues at any time.

It sometimes becomes necessary to start a waiting list for our groups. We limit numbers in our groups to ensure the safety and comfort of children and families and to help us build relationships. If our groups become too full we start a waiting list. Email the toddler coordinator for further details.

Our toddler praise sessions and toddler groups are great for children aged 1-4 years. But even younger children can still get something out of the sessions. We have toys and resources for babies, toddlers and pre-schoolers, and all the children enjoy play, singing and stories and can access the activities in a variety of different ways. You can always try out one of our groups and assess for yourself if it is a good fit for your child. Or come along to our baby group until your child starts to walk.
