If you are joining for the first time, we encourage you to arrive fifteen minutes early. Our friendly Check In Team will create a profile for you, help familiarize you with our check-in system, show you to your kiddos’ classes, and answer any questions you may have.
Checking in your students is simple! First, type in your 10-digit cell phone number! Next, you will select the names of your children you want to check in. Then, select the event they are attending. At Capital, we have them labeled by their age or grade so it’s easy to select. After you’ve done that for each child, you will select who will receive a text message in the event we need to contact you during church.
Remember to turn your cell phone on vibrate/silence during the service! Please know that if your child cries, has difficulty acclimating, or experiences separation anxiety, our caring and trained team members will immediately soothe your child. We dedicate ourselves to making sure your child is safe and cared for, so we will not hesitate to reach out to you and keep you informed. If we need your assistance for diapering or taking your student to the restroom, or if we have any unforeseen issues or emergencies, we will contact you immediately.
Our check in process is the one of the many layers of safety we have for your kiddos. After selecting who will receive the text messages, three stickers will be printed: two identical name stickers and a corresponding 3-digit alphanumeric security sticker. One name sticker goes on your child, one name sticker goes to your child’s teacher, and you keep the alphanumeric security sticker. To ensure the safety and security of all children, they will only be released to an adult who presents their corresponding 3-digit alphanumeric sticker. If you lose this sticker, your child’s teacher will contact their class coordinator or the Children’s Pastor to help you by confirming your identity and getting a new 3-digit alphanumeric security sticker printed.
Our weekend experience is made up of multiple parts. Your children will have an interactive experience including, but not limited to: play, structured activity, interactive worship, a Bible story and lesson, and a snack! We know that children function, communicate, learn, and play differently at different ages; your kiddos may learn the same concepts, but their experience in class will look different depending on their age.
