When you arrive to church for a Sunday morning service or Wednesday evening programming, our team is available in all main lobbies to register your child. Trust us, Mom and Dad, we’ll help you get everything covered. You can even sign up to receive a special e-newsletter to keep up-to-date with all the happenings in Oakland Kids.

During the service, kids remain with the family for worship & announcements, and then will be dismissed to Oakland Kids—where they will have the time of their lives! (Our staffed nursery, though, is available the entire service.)

Children and parents receive matching printed nametags and pick-up tags to ensure their safety in our environments. The child’s nametag identifies their age group, any allergies, and a security code that matches the parent pick-up tag. At the end of the service, each parent picking up a child must provide the pick-up tag to the our volunteers. A member of the Oakland Kids team will ensure the security codes match on both the child’s nametag and parent pick-up tag.

All volunteers are cleared through a background check via the State of Pennsylvania, and no volunteer serves alone.
