The Crèche
A crèche for babies and very young children (0-3 years), whose parents want to go to the 9.30 a.m. service on Sundays (not second Sunday), is held in the church hall. Toys and cushions are provided.
There is also a children's corner in church (with quiet toys and books) available during services.
The parish operates a child protection policy for all its work with young people. To find out more about this, click here for a summary of our policy, or here for a copy of our document, "Safeguarding Our Children"
Tiny Tots
Tiny Tots is for pre-school children and their parents/carers. It happens every other week on a Monday afternoon between 2.15 and 3.00 p.m. It's an opportunity for the children to become familiar with the church and to learn about God. They sing easy-to-learn choruses/songs, they have a story, say a prayer, and they have a craft activity - depending on the age of the children. But it's also a time for Mums/Grandmas/Carers to have a chat over a cup of tea, so even if you have a very young baby please come along and get to know others in similar circumstances.
