What To Expect
New To North Park?
Our Children's Ministry wing is located on the second floor, down the hallway to your left. The rooms are clearly marked, but if you have any questions, contact our Children's Ministry Director, Kelly Laird.
Secure Check-In
During Sunday School, nursery, and Kids' Worship check-in, each child will receive a numbered security tag with a matching parent safety tag; the parent safety tag must be returned when picking up your child.
Staff and Volunteers
Anyone over 18-years-old that is working with children at North Park is required to submit up-to-date clearances. Volunteers are asked to fill out an application each year. Paid nursery workers are interviewed and submit 2-3 references that are checked before hiring. Our nursery workers are currently certified in CPR, First Aid, babysitting, and AED training.
If you'd like to volunteer with our kids - fill out an application.
Child Registration
We have a Child Safety Policy that is reviewed and updated regularly.
Register Your Child
All new attendees are asked to register their child(ren). Regular attenders are no longer required to register their child(ren) each year unless the emergency contact information has been changed.

Our Programs
Nursery
Care for our littlest ones (birth to 36-months) is offered during worship services, Sunday School, and other church events. We hire paid workers who have their current Child Abuse and Criminal History clearances as well as babysitting, First Aid/AED, and other lifesaving certifications. Nursery workers will welcome families and do their best to make a child's time with them pleasant and comfortable as well as fun. Be sure to let us know of any allergies or special accommodations needed for your child. If you have any questions or concerns, speak with our Children's Director.
