Children

You’ll find our team ready to greet you at check in! Check in begins 30 minutes before each service and check out lasts for 15 minutes following service end.

We use KIDCHECK as our check-in system. If you do not have a KIDCHECK account, please take a moment and create an account at https://www.kidcheck.com/signup/

Our Promise Kids Ministry is a completely secure area. At check-in each of your children will receive a name badge that should be placed on their back, and you will receive a parent/guardian slip. Your child’s name badge and the guardian slip have a unique code, randomly assigned to you at check in for that particular service. At check-out, you will need to present the guardian slip to our Check-in Staff to pick up your child.

If you choose to give your guardian slip to another person then they would be able to pick up your child, as long as the secure code on the child’s name badge and guardian slip match.

Note: if you lose your guardian receipt, please notify our Check-in Staff immediately

Since our Promise Kids Ministry area is secure, we can give tours after children are dismissed or we can schedule a time throughout the week to give a tour.

If you’re interested in a tour, please let a Check-in Staff Member know and they’ll connect you with our Promise Kids Ministry Director to set up a tour.

Because our Promise Kids Ministry area is a secure area, only our background checked team members are permitted in this area. We have an experienced team and many leaders who are capable of making sure each child is well cared for. If your child needs your attention, we will contact you via text message.

You will receive a text message to the number you provide in KIDCHECK. Please be sure to keep your phone handy and check it during service for any communications from our team.

Yes. Regardless of their role, every adult who serves in Promise Kids Ministry has a clear background check.

Nursery & Preschool: You’re welcome to leave anything your child might need.
Elementary: Children are encouraged to bring a bible.

In KIDCHECK please make sure to complete the “Medical / Allergy Info” field. This information is printed on the child’s name tag to ensure your child’s safety upon snack time.

Our Check-in Staff also verbally notify ministry teachers of allergy information to ensure our team is aware.

Parents are asked to send children in a pull-up if they are in the process of potty training. Our ministry staff will take children to the restroom once an hour, unless asked by the child.

Our potty-trained definition: We describe potty-trained as any child that the parent can drop off without any special instructions regarding taking the child to the bathroom.
