"The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that someone took and sowed in his field; it is the smallest of all the seeds, but when it has grown it is the greatest of shrubs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and make nests in its branches."  Matthew 13:31-32

Welcome to the Childcare Center

At the St. Margaret's Childcare Center, we plant the seed of faith for a lifetime of learning about God and the Christian community. We provide a secure environment, filled with love and structured to encourage trust between staff, the children and their parents.

We appreciate the trust parents place in us when they allow us to care for their children. We take this responsibility very seriously. We are committed to providing a safe, healthy and developmentally appropriate experience for every child. The Childcare Center serves families in two primary capacities:

Childcare on Sunday Morning

The Childcare Center is open on Sunday mornings from 8:30 a.m. to about 12:45 p.m. The center accepts children, ages birth to 36 months, while their parent/guardian(s) attend services or programs at the church. Parent/guardians must remain on the church premises at all times.

For more information, please consult the parent handbook before you leave your child in our care.

Childcare at Other Times

The Childcare Center provides supervision for children for some church programs on evenings, weekends and during the week. Check with your event organizer to determine if childcare is provided. If so, you must call or email the childcare coordinator, Valerie Lee, to reserve a place for your child.
