YOUR FIRST VISIT

Here’s what to expect whenvisiting KidZone for the first time:

First, find the area marked KidZone Checkin. This area is located at the Info Hub at the First Church campus you’re visiting.

There you will meet our Welcome Team, they’ll check your child into our system, and then one of our volunteers will lead your child to their age-appropriate room.

Upon checking in for the first time, we will ask for the following personal information (NOTE: We value your privacy and will not share this information with anyone):

Parent/guardian name(s)
Email Address
Child’s name
Child’s birthdate
Home address
Phone number
Any special instructions (allergies, special needs) for your children

To ensure safety, all our volunteers pass a background check before working with your child.

HOW CHECK-IN WORKS

Before Service:

You can check-in your child at any KidZone Checkin area. After finding your child’s name in the database, you and your child will be given matching name tags that are exclusive to your family and your visit. Your child will need to wear the name tag portion while you hold on to the matching tag.

After Service:

After the service is complete, you will return to your child’s room and show your tag in order for your child to be released back to you.

WEDNESDAY NIGHTS

KidZone WOW (Worship on Wednesdays) is for ages 3 yrs-5th grade (and our nursery, ages 0-35 months, is also available during this time). KidZone WOW runs during adult programming at First Church on Wednesday nights.
