First Time?

Our Nursery and Preschool Ministry is located on the first floor of the Joy Building. Self-serve kiosks are located at the entrance of the preschool area. First-time guests are encouraged to stop by the preschool welcome desk to receive their security badges. One of our friendly greeters will be happy to help you find your child’s classroom. For security reasons, no parent or child will be allowed down the classroom hallway without a security badge. See you soon!

What to Expect

At Sherwood, preschoolers will learn about God, themselves, and the world around them through planned Bible-learning activity centers. Our goal is that our preschoolers will come to know that God made them, He loves them, and He wants to be their Forever Friend. We see our Preschool Ministry as the place where these incredibly important foundations are laid. When you visit our preschool, you will see giant oak trees and pine trees along the walls. The trees are symbols of what we want our children to grow up to be. You will also notice six giant murals of familiar Bible stories. These murals tell the gospel story from Creation to the Resurrection! When you visit, take time to walk the hallway and read the gospel story to your child. It will be a great family moment for you!

Safe & Fun

Close attention is paid to security and cleanliness in an effort to provide a safe and fun learning environment. We understand that the care of your child is extremely important to you, so we focus on these three areas that pertain to your child:

Safety

We have four different security measures in place to make sure your child's experience is as safe and carefree as possible.

Fun

We have included energetic Wee Worship, personal instruction, friendly leaders, and creative recreation. We even make great use of our outdoor and indoor playgrounds!

Biblical Accuracy

We strive to ground everything we teach and do in a biblical worldview. We believe the Bible is entirely true.
