Treasure Bay (6 months – Age 4)

 

Marcus Pointe Baptist Church's Nursery is available for infants and toddlers up through age four. It is a caring, nurturing environment where your child can experience God's love. It provides parents the opportunity to worship and attend adult education forums and classes knowing that their young children are in a safe and nurturing place. Experienced parents & caregivers serve in the Nursery. The Nursery is open on Sunday mornings from 8:15am to 12:45pm and Wednesday evenings from 6:15pm to 8:00pm. No reservations are required for Sunday mornings or Wednesday Evenings.

 

 

Information

Our Treasure Bay program teaches children with the end in mind.  By the time a child graduates from our program he or she will know:

         1.God Made Me

         2. God Loves Me.

         3. Jesus Wants to be My Friend Forever.

 

Your child will experience worship. We encourage all of our children to talk to God any time, any place. 

 

There is a minimum of six adult caregivers in the nursery at all times. Our caregivers have gone through a background check and interview process to ensure your child's safety. To learn more about our caregivers, contact Jeff York at (850) 479-8337.

 

 

Signing In
Signing is is required at the checking desk. (Building C  Door 8)  Once you have completed a family registration form, we ask that you simply sign in at the Nursery desk each Sunday.  For the safety of your child, we require all parents and children to wear matching bracelets.  These bracelets helped us to correctly identify your child and confirm the identity of those picking up the children. We require that the armband be presented in order for any child to be picked up.  As an added safety measure, please enter only through the door marked "entrance."

 

We welcome you to stay until your child is comfortable, but keep in mind that most children settle in a few minutes after your departure.  Many times the Nursery is the first place that a child experiences detachment from their parents, and we encourage you to take the time that is necessary for you and your child to adjust.

 

 

What to Bring
Please bring a labeled bag which includes a pacifier (if your child uses one), at least two diapers, a change of clothes, and all personal items your child may need such as wipes, ointment, bottles, and/or comforting blankets. All personal items should be labeled before arrival. If you forget diapers and wipes, we have some on hand.
