About First Kids

First Kids is an exciting place where children have a blast while they experience a loving God. Every activity is intentionally planned for your child to connect with peers, develop friendships with godly leaders, and most importantly, engage in a personal, growing relationship with Jesus Christ while they are young (1 Timothy 4:12). First Kids includes all kids from Birth – 6th grade.

Each child is taught in an age-appropriate environment in small groups and cared for in an individual way. Kids connect with peers and leaders through interactive games on Sunday mornings, connect to God with radical music, and learn of Him through videos and outstanding teachers. Your child will love our fun, nurturing, Christ-centered classrooms!

Just 6th is a special year in children’s ministry.  We know that the first year of middle school can be challenging and exciting.  We keep the 6th graders in the children’s ministry, however, we do special events, mission projects, and lead park days in the summer. They also have a stand-alone curriculum for Sunday mornings.

 

Safety and Security
Safety and Security

The safety and security of your children is a high priority for us!

SHELBY CHECK-IN
We have a computerized check-in system on Sunday mornings which will print a sticker for each child as well as a Security Pick-Up Tag for parents or guardians. Children will not be released without the Security Tag.

HALLWAY SECURITY
We have a person at the preschool information desk at all times when children are present. We also have the ability to lock down the hallway if necessary.

TWO WORKER RULE
First Baptist Church takes seriously our priority of child safety and security, therefore we are committed to our policy which requires two pre-screened, approved workers be present with children at all times. The only exception to this is our Tuesday/Thursday preschool which follows the state guidelines for child/teacher ratios.

Volunteer With Us

Thank you for wanting to serve our Lord in ministry with children. They are certainly a priority to us at First Baptist Church as we partner with parents to impact children in their faith journey.
