The Well
A new family drop in for play and fellowship…
What is The Well?
The Well is a free weekly drop-in program at Wyoming Baptist Church for children (birth-age six) and their families. This program is an opportunity for parents, grandparents, and caregivers to stay and play with their children.
How is it Facilitated?
The Well is facilitated by Emma, our children’s ministry coordinator (CMC) who is also a registered early childhood educator, along with children’s ministry volunteers.
Families are responsible for the supervision and well-being of their children.
What can I Expect?
On your first visit and each year, you will need to complete a consent form.
The gym will be set up with experiences such as infant, art, sensory, and active play that you and your children can explore at your own pace.
You will have opportunities to connect with the CMC, volunteers, and other families.
A snack will be provided for your children and the program will end with a short song/story time.
