Frequently Asked Questions

What is the process for drop off and pick up?

We utilize an electronic registration system that provides a 3-digit security code unique to your family and your visit. You may check-in your child anytime before the start of class. Children may be dropped off 10 minutes prior to the start of class.

Computer kiosks are conveniently located in the JAM Children’s Ministry area. The first kiosk is located in the main JAM check-in area, across from Kid JAM. A second kiosk is located between Pre-K and Tot JAM.

After checking your child in, simply place the child’s tag on the back of their shirt. This tag will contain their name and the 3-digit security code that matches your tag and any allergy/medical information if needed. Next, take your child to their assigned classroom and drop them off at the door. Additional tags may be printed for backpacks and diaper bags. We will always have volunteers to help you through these processes.

Children may be checked out by the parent or a license driver only. At checkout, the tag matching your child’s tag must be presented prior to the child being released. Additionally, this 3-digit code is utilized to notify you during service should your child need you.

If you are visiting us for the first time you will go into the Check-In Room and a staff member will help you register your family for the first time.

 

Is my child safe?

Your child’s safety is our first concern! All of our volunteers have gone through a background check to ensure your family's safety. We also have church safety officers that patrole the hallways and are stationed at each entrance. We utilize our check-in system as an extra security precaution. You must have your label that matches up with your child's label before they can be picked up.

Many of us that serve in the children's ministry have children involved in different JAM programs so we always request that our volunteers love and treat every child as if they were their own.

If your child has special medical needs or if you have concerns we can flag that in our system so that it alerts us when your child is checked in to class.
