Home Group Child Care
Schedule
Updated March 17, 2008
Westwood takes joy in providing child care for Sunday night Home Groups because we know this facilitates the work of God through Bible study, fellowship and prayer. Here are some guidelines that will help us meet your needs while using our resources wisely.
§ Hours: Child Care is currently provided for Home Groups who begin between 5:00 and 6:00 PM. Therefore, allowing for travel time, children may be dropped off as early as 4:40 PM and should be picked up by 8:15 PM, but definitely no later than 8:30 PM.
§ Promptness: Child care is provided only for group time and travel time. Please don’t drop children off early and please be prompt in picking them up following the group meeting.
§ Food: Parents are asked to send a sack dinner with their children. All dinner will be served at 6:30 PM.
§ Calendar: A schedule is posted at WestwoodGroups.com which indicates the nights child care is provided at church. This is particularly important around holiday times.
§ Cancellations: If your group decides not to meet, please contact Virginia Opper or Jay Gordon. If a number of groups cancel, we may not offer child care on a particular night. We need a few days notice for this to be helpful. Please make your group meeting plans at least a week in advance.
§ Fellowship Events: The church provides child care for regular group meetings that involve Bible study and prayer. If your group meets for a fellowship event, separate arrangements need to be made for child care. You may be able to use child care for a fellowship event, but will likely be charged for that. For more information, please contact Wendy Sipes or Virginia Opper.
