Nursery Policies at All Saints', click here
Due to directives from the National Church, the Vestry has adopted a Safeguarding God’s Children policy that delineates specific guidelines for nursery care provided by All Saints’
Episcopal Church.
We use exclusively the paid services of an outside organization, The Arizona Lullaby Guild. This organization has been providing childcare services professionally in Arizona since 1961, and is state licensed and bonded, including each member having undergone national background checks. Each nursery care giver is trained in first aid, child and infant CPR, and has had the Safeguarding God’s Children training required by the Episcopal Diocese of Arizona. The Arizona Lullaby Guild will provide a core group of primary caregivers to maintain a high adult-to-child ratio. From this point forward, there will be no volunteer (adult or teen) participation in the nursery.
Other changes will be provided and listed for all parents who drop off children at the nursery. Some of those changes include that the nursery is exclusively designated for infants and toddlers. Once a child has been potty-trained, they are expected to participate in Sunday School and to worship in church with their parents. The new system will require only parents who drop off their child(ren) are able to pick up their child(ren). If you have questions about the new rules or regulations, please feel free to contact Cristina Hatton, our Director of Christian Education at 602-279-5539 x116.
The church is a protective haven for all who come to it. May our mutual ministry of caring for our children and our community in the light of Christ always be our first priority.
