Early Childhood (Infant - Kindergarten)
In our Nursery Hallway (Infants to 3 years old), young children are busy forming their first impressions about everything, including God. We desire to provide a safe, caring environment where the youngest children know that they are loved. We begin our Bible lesson and activities with 2-year-olds that include fun activities, crafts, and music.
Preschool & Elementary (3 years - 4th Grade)
Our 3-year-olds through 4th graders experience age-aligned programming each week that has both Large Group and Small Group components. We use “The Gospel Project for Kids” to lead a chronological study through God’s word. Kids learn together how to apply God’s word to their lives and live out a vibrant faith and passion for Jesus. Kids are divided into age/grade-appropriate classrooms where they experience dynamic worship, teaching, and application activities.
5th & 6th Grade
In our 5th and 6th grade group, we encourage kids to connect with God through worship, prayer, and digging into the Bible. We also help them grow together through small groups, fun activities, and community outreach. Our goal is to see these kids really own their faith and live it out in a way that makes a difference in their lives and shows love to others.
Kids with Special Needs
We offer a “Buddy” program for kids with special needs with integration being our goal. For more information about this program please connect with our Kids admin., Marie Martinez prior to your first visit so that we can make your child’s experience with us an amazing one!
We offer a Saturday evening service at 5pm. Kids 2 years and under can check into their classroom before service. Kids 3 years old through 4th grade can be checked in and then attend worship with their parents. After worship kids will be dismissed to our kids staff to experience a Bible story presentation that includes life application activities.
Here are some steps to get you and your family started at Waterstone...
Check-In at the Kids Info Center
Please check in at the Kids Info Center in the East hallway. You will receive a registration form, name tags for your kids, and directions to their classrooms. After your first visit, we will send you a bar code that you can use for future check ins at the Kids Info Center kiosks.
Children with Special Needs
We offer a “Buddy” program for children with special needs. Often, we provide a one-on-one "buddy" to children who need assistance in the classroom. The buddy program is available during our Sunday morning 10am service. Our goal is to integrate every child but we ask that you contact us before your first visit so we can best serve your child. Please contact Marie Martinez for more information.
