KIDCITY

KidCity is our program for children, serving ages birth through 5th grade. All teachers and volunteers are fully trained and background checked by Neartown Church.

During the summer, KidCity will be nursery to Pre-K ages for the summer. Children in Kindergarten and up will be in the main gathering with supplemental worksheet activities.

Kindergarten - 5th Grade will return to KidCity at the end of the summer.

KidCity Information for Parents

The ministry of KidCity is to teach children the peace of life with Jesus Christ in a secure and fun environment. To accomplish this mission we need the help of parents in the following ways:

Safety and Security

  • When children are checked in parents will receive a security tag.

  • Parents should write any special instructions or needs on the class sign in sheet.

  • Children will be released only to parent holding a matching security tag.

  • Parents may not go past the check-in desk into the childrenʼs area without a KidCity Coach or Teacher with them.

  • All KidCity teachers have been appropriately screened to work with children.

General Information

  • Your children may be dropped off up to 15 minutes before the service begins.

  • Any personal items left with children such as bottles, bags, etc., should be labeled with their first and last name. No glass containers please.

  • Provide disposable diapers for your child.

  • Please do not bring toys from home for safety and sanitation reasons.
