Upon arrival at the lobby, you will head down the left side hallway to find our Kids Check In area. A volunteer will assist you in using our iPads to check your child(ren) into the appropriate classrooms.

When you arrive at our check-in area, you will use our iPads to input your name, phone number, and email address. Next, enter your child(ren)’s name and age/classroom.

After entering the data, select Print, and it will create three tags for each of your children.

1. One tag will go on them as their nametag.

2. One tag will go in their classroom binder for their drop-off tag.

3. You will keep the tag labeled Guardian Receipt with you until you come to pick them up.

Check-in will be open 20 minutes before each service time.

HillsideKids oversees children from infants through 5th Grade! Each of our classrooms is tailored to that age group, providing an age-appropriate curriculum, activities, snacks, etc.

All of our classrooms are based on age/grade level. The classroom breakdown is as follows:

• Infants (0-12 months old)

• Toddlers (13-24 months old)

• 2-Year-Olds

• 3-Year-Olds

• 4’s & TK

• Kindergarten & 1st Grade

• 2nd & 3rd Grade

• 4th & 5th Grade

No, we will gather all of the necessary information on when you arrive at our check-in area on Sunday morning.

We would love to care for your little bundle of joy. The volunteers in our infants room are trained to care for those 0-12 months old. However, if you feel more comfortable, we do have a Mom’s Room where the service is streamed for those who have a nursing child.

You will receive a text message on your phone from one of the HillsideKids employees.

Please ensure your phone is on and close to you to receive the notification.

Upon arrival at the classroom, please alert the teacher and volunteers to your childs allergies. They will take note of it and that information will be added to their nametage and the classroom binder for the next week.

Our adult female volunteers are all capable of handling diaper changes. However, if you would feel more comfortable handling diaper changes yourself, that is completely fine. Simply let the volunteers in the classroom know and your will be notified via text.

The safety of your kids and of our volunteers is of the utmost importance. Bathroom procedures vary by classroom, but all are age-appropriate and ensure everything is above reproach. Our volunteers are trained to never be alone in the restroom with children and to avoid situations that could call their integrity into question.

If you have questions about a specific classroom’s policies or would like a general overview of all of our policies, please feel free to reach out to our Children’s Director.

All adult volunteers must be members in good standing at Hillside Church, have completed our application, and submitted a comprehensive background check.

Sunday School is available during both the 9 am and 11 am worship servie times.

We use two different curricula. For the first hour, we teach the Gospel Project, and for the second hour, we teach Answers in Genesis.

Snack is provided in all classrooms from Toddlers to 5th grade. All snacks are nut-free and we have additional snacks that can be given for certain dietary restrictions upon request. Additionally, you are welcome to send your child with their own snack if preferred or necessary for more sever allergies.

Children are welcome to start service with their parents in the sanctuary if you wish to have them participate in a particular part of the service. However, there is no scheduled dismissal in the sanctuary. Once you wish to have your child attend Sunday School, you can escort them to the Kids check-in area, then to their classroom.
