Nursery is available during all worship hours.

Shepherd of the Valley provides a safe, warm, and welcoming nursery for children during worship and certain events. Caring, professional staff make this an exceptional entry point for children just beginning their involvement in a faith community. Parents are always welcome to play with us.

During all worship hours, the nursery is open to all children ages 1-3. Registration is not required. Children age 3 and older are encouraged to attend worship or to register for our children’s education hour (called GodZone). When programming is not in session, children of all ages are welcome in the nursery.
