For the safety of your child and your own peace of mind, we use a child check-in system for our nursery and Kids Classes. When you arrive at the kids ministry area, you’ll begin by checking your children in at the kiosks. You'll find a friendly & helpful volunteer standing near the check-in stations to assist you if you have questions or if this is your first time. Our check-in system will print a name tag sticker for your child and you’ll receive a unique security label that you’ll use to pick up your child after the service has concluded.

If you have a child who is 2 years old or younger, you can check them into our nursery during Sunday morning services. The nursery is stocked with toys to play with and books to read. In the nursery, we maintain a ratio of at least 1 volunteer to 5 kids. Our volunteers are well-trained regular attenders of Walnut Creek who have passed a background check.

We offer Kids Classes for children 3 years old through 3rd grade during each service. These classes provide a safe, fun, Christ-centered place for your child to learn and grow. Our preschool and elementary classes are led by a teacher and one or two assistant teachers who work together to teach kids the Bible through a curriculum called The Gospel Project, created by Lifeway.

Throughout the morning, kids will engage in singing worship songs, doing a craft, hearing a Bible lesson, and enjoying snack time and free play. Each of these activities are opportunities by which our teachers are able to share the gospel with the little minds, hearts, and souls in their class. Curious about our policies?

In the event a volunteer needs to get in touch with you during the service, your phone number is printed on your child’s name tags, enabling them to message you.
