Nursery

We count it an honor and a blessing to minister to
babies here at WAM. Our vision for our nursery is to
provide a safe, healthy and caring environment.
The nursery is staffed with loving teachers who are
called to this area of children's ministry because they
truly love babies and count it a privilege to serve
our body in this way.

We believe it is important for children to
participate in nursery at the very earliest age. It is
a great opportunity for parents to start building
some life-long securities in their baby. For babies
who are only with mom and dad, there is no better
place than church to introduce them to others
outside of their family circle. It affords parents the
opportunity to leave their child, for just a short
time, while being in the same building with
them and it lets baby know it is okay to be
in the care of others. This develops a healthy
transition for the parent and baby to
accept being separated at times.

We are committed to serving families of nursery age
children to the best of our ability. We understand
families attend church to be spiritually fed. God’s best is
for parents to have uninterrupted service time. Our goal
is to keep each child for the duration of service, if at all
possible. If a parent is needed back in the nursery, a
worker will have the check in number
put up on the screen.

The nursery is a baby's first experience of church.
We want to teach them to know the Name of Jesus,
that Jesus loves them and how we praise Him.
We want them to know what the Bible is and that we
love the Bible. A baby associates hugs or kisses with
love, so we have them hug or kiss their Bible.
Isaiah 28:10 says we learn precept upon precept,
line upon line, here a little, there a little.
We get to sow the first seeds into their life.
What an awesome privilege!
