Early Childhood

For our youngest children, Westminster provides quality care
and engaging, age-appropriate activities.

Nursery Care

Westminster’s Nursery provides care for infants through age 3. We offer quality care and age-appropriate activities and programming in a safe, nurturing environment that reflects God’s love, care, and concern. On Sundays, toddlers take part in Circle Time, which includes singing, a faith-based story and a prayer.

Sundays
