The Sunday nursery programs at Trinity Cathedral are dedicated to both parents and children. Parents are assured of a safe and pleasant environment for infants and toddlers so that they may take full advantage of Trinity’s rich opportunities for worship, learning, and fellowship. Children are provided not only with constant care and supervision, but also introduced to the early levels of Christian formation through stories, music and interaction with other children. Trinity Cathedral’s nursery is much more than a convenience or service; it is a ministry to the entire Cathedral community. For more information on Trinity Cathedral's Nursery program, please contact Jean K. White, 254-1744.
Location
The Infant Nursery (ages six weeks to six months) is located in Room 234 of the Parish House. The nurseries for six month olds through two year olds are located downstairs just past the youth hall in Rooms 125, 122 and 116.
Each classroom is staffed by paid, trained caregivers and parent volunteers.
Parent Volunteers Parents who utilize the nurseries are assigned Host Parent Duty. Notification of this is sent in advance in letter form to all parents of nursery-aged children. Reminder cards are mailed the week prior to service. The nurseries’ success is dependent upon parent volunteers since the budget will not allow for additional paid staff. This is a wonderful opportunity for parents to get to know the caregivers, other parents, and our children.
