Nursery | Guidelines (Babies and Toddlers)

In order to make sure that our nursery is a happy, safe, and fun environment, we have established the following guidelines:

  • Please make the staff aware of any allergies or medical needs when you leave your child.
  • When you arrive, please sign in your child.
  • The nursery opens 10 minutes before each service and closes 15 minutes after its conclusion.
  • Please do not leave the church while your child is in the nursery.
  • Many times, young children may tend to cry when they are dropped off in the nursery. Some separation anxiety is normal for young children, and they are usually easily distracted soon after they arrive. In some cases, children continue to cry. If after 10 minutes we are not able to console your child, you may be notified by the nursery staff.

A child with any of the following symptoms should not be brought to the MUMC nursery. Please help us keep our children healthy by keeping your child with you if he or she has any of the following:
