• If you are visiting Grace Church for the first time, stop by one of the welcome desks in the children’s center or area. There, a volunteer will assist you with checking your child into an age-appropriate class and direct you to that classroom. Your child will receive a name tag sticker, a check-in sticker, and a check-out sticker. Your child will wear the name tag sticker, and you will give the check-in sticker to the child’s small group leader. You will keep the third sticker to be used to pick up your child.
• Once your child is in our computer system, check-in can be completed at any computer kiosk or welcome desk, and you can take your child to his or her classroom.

As part of our check-in procedure, we collect a cell phone number from the child’s parent or guardian. If a situation arises, and a volunteer feels it is necessary to summon a child’s parent, a text will be sent notifying the parent.

For the safety of the child, the volunteer, and the parent, we ask that you not enter the classroom. Adults who enter the classroom are required to have a background check, and we cannot verify this for every parent. Please see your campus Children's director if you have any questions.

We provide goldfish, saltines, or Cheerios for snacks in our Play House and Tree House classrooms. Please let your child’s teacher know if there are any allergies we need to accommodate.

We welcome all children at Grace Church and are excited to have your child join us! We offer a variety of programs and support to children of all ages with special needs. For more information about our Mosaic Special Needs Ministry, visit grace.sc/mosaic.
