God has purposed each of us to help in training up the children around us. Psalm 127 says that children are like arrows; One day we will launch them out into this world. We are given these children as a mighty warrior is given arrows, to send out into battle, not to sit idly by. Will you join us in helping to raise up and equip the arrows that are the next generation?
Crosby Church Kids is a place for your child to experience the greatness of God. We value the time that you allow us to teach and lead your children. Our mission here at Crosby Church Kids is to share biblical truth with every child that reaches our arena and build them up to be the arrows that the Lord our God has commissioned them to be! From 8 weeks through elementary school we have developed an experience for your child, giving them opportunity to grow in Christ. Our goal is to partner with you and to walk along side you as you lead your family in pursuit of a relationship with Christ. Let us know how we can best support your family as we walk through life together. You can reach us at cckids@crosbychurch.com

What if my child has special needs?
Support Needs:
We welcome all children including those that may need extra support to be successful in our program. If your child has any sort of accommodations that will help them be successful, please let us know. We offer many different resources inside of our program, we have multiple people on our team who are well versed in ABA, as well as working in similar roles in the public school system. We offer breaks, sensory bins, as well as many opportunities for movement and physical activities. Our goal is for parents to feel comfortable with the care their children are in so they are able to rest in the presence of the Lord.

What if my child doesn't want to go?
It's natural for children to feel hesitant or nervous about attending class. We work closely with parents to address any concerns and create a welcoming, fun environment that helps children feel comfortable and adjust. Talking to your child beforehand about what to expect can also make a big difference in helping them feel safe and excited to participate. If your child becomes distressed or experiences any issues during the service, we will display their tag number (provided at check-in) on the screen, so you can come pick them up right away.
