Children's Ministry Health & Safety Plan
Young Meadow’s Children’s Ministry will have Nursery for both the 9am Bridge Service and 11am Traditional Service. We want to continue to provide your children with a safe, clean environment free from Covid and any communicable illnesses. There will be additional cleaning, sanitizing and safety measures put in place throughout the time. We ask that you do what is most comfortable for your family; so sending your child to the Nursery will be “at your own risk”.
-Nursery is for children ages birth through age three.
-Please bring only what your child needs and nothing extra. Label all items. Diaper bags will be left in the hall. Diapers will not be changed unless absolutely necessary since children will only be there for the hour.
-We will be utilizing a No Touch Check-In by a scanned QR code from your phone. Please update your information on the registration form. You will be both emailed and texted your families QR code.
-We ask that only one parent enter the hallway to pick up their child after the service.
