| Take a
break from your kids and have a chance to fully appreciate Mass! Parish
& Family Life sponsors a parent
co-op nursery for children ages 9 months to 3 years from October to May during the 9:15 a.m.
Mass.
What you need to know about the
Nursery
The Nursery opens at 9:00am to allow parents time to drop off their
child and be seated in the Main Church for Mass. Children cannot be left
unattended in the Nursery. Please wait until a scheduled volunteer arrives before leaving your child in the Nursery. All children must be
picked up immediately after the 9:15 Mass.
It is requested that parents sit on the right side of the Church, near
the Pulpit. If your child becomes overly distressed, staff will call parents out
of Mass to remove their child from the Nursery.
The age range for the Nursery is 9 months through 3 years.
The maximum number of children in the Nursery cannot exceed 15.
Parents who register their children for the Nursery are scheduled to
staff the Nursery on a regular, rotating schedule. If you cannot attend, it is your responsibility to find a replacement.
Phone numbers and e-mails for registered families can be found on the
schedule page.
Diaper Changing Policy
As a general rule, staff will not change a child's diaper. Please
be sure your child is clean and dry prior to dropping them off in the
Nursery. In order for staff to change a diaper in an
"emergency," written permission must have been given by the
parent prior to leaving the child in the Nursery. (This is part of the
registration form.)
Illness
If your child exhibits any of the following symptoms, please keep
them home from the Nursery: chills, sore throat, diarrhea, fever over
100 degrees, runny nose, ear ache, rash, vomiting, flushed face, severe
or raspy cough, red, itchy, swollen or runny eyes. Your cooperation will
help keep the children and staff healthy!
Fire Emergency Procedures
In the event of fire, staff will move all children out of the
building and across the driveway. Please pick up your child in this area
- do not come to the Nursery to pick up your child.
