Trinity Lutheran Church and School Loving People To Christ

Baby Lambs of Trinity is a full-day Nursery Care Ministry for children ages 6 weeks and up. It is registered with the State of Indiana, and is in compliance with Indiana State Fire and Safety Regulations.

Baby Lambs of Trinity Nursery Care Ministry’s mission is to glorify God. In the past, we have been a church and grade school and were directed by God to extend into the younger ages to help working parents and growing families. We offer a safe, compassionate, Christian environment, and all of our staff dedicated in serving Christ, our Church members, and our community families. We are a Registered Ministry through the State of Indiana Family Social Services and the Indianapolis Fire Marshal. We must pass inspections through them and the inspections are posted by them on Indygov.com for viewing. Through our programs we seek to minister, support and give guidance to the parents and the children of Baby Lambs. Our ministry is very open, and we welcome you at any time to come in and join us during the day. We would like to thank you for sharing your most precious gift from God with us, and we will be honored to share the day with your child.

ELIGIBILITY
Baby Lambs will accept infants 6 weeks and older, and toddlers up to the age of 3. When a child turns 3 years of age the parents, nursery director, principal, and preschool teacher will evaluate the child’s maturity level and determine the best placement for the child.

PROGRAMS
We will follow a parent’s directions to the best of our ability. It is the responsibility of the parent to provide the nutritional needs for the entire day of care (breakfast, lunch, snacks).

Parents are to supply the following items:
Diapers: Diapers will be changed every 2 hours - no longer than 3 hours will be allowed to pass between changes.
5 diapers per day = 25 per full week of care (this doesn’t include extra changes)
Wipes: Please supply a refillable tub at first then just packages to refill
Sippy’s: Sippy cups are to be filled with juice or milk. Please no caffeinated drinks.

CHAPEL
Baby lambs will attend a chapel service once a week. This will help prepare the children to learn about Jesus and sit quietly during church time. Jesus time is incorporated in a number of activities that we do as a group to learn about Jesus. Teach each child the love of the Lord.
SCHOOL/MULTI-CHILD DISCOUNTS
School discounts are only given to families that have a child enrolled for 5 full days of care per week in Baby Lambs, and a sibling from the same family enrolled in Trinity Lutheran School. Families with children who are not in 5 full days of care per week in Baby Lambs will not receive a discount and will be charged the regular daily rate.

Multi-child discounts are given to families with more than one child enrolled in Baby Lambs.

MINISTRY ASSISTANCE
The Ministry Account is designed to help families that are in a crisis situation and need our help. You will pay the same amount decided upon every week for a limited time. This will continue during a holiday or days out and will be re-evaluated quarterly. As soon as your family no longer needs our assistance you are required to return to normal payments. This enables another family to receive our help. This account is for families in serious financial need and is not to be misused.

We would like to invite all of our Baby Lambs families to participate in a Church service. Weekend worship service times are as follows:
Saturday night services are traditional services and start at 5:00 p.m.
Sunday morning service hours are 8:30 a.m. for a traditional service and 11:00 a.m. for a contemporary (casual dress, live band) service.
