Age Groups

Early Childhood

Ages 6wks – 2yrs

Our youngest at Pine Hills experience the love of Christ through the way they are cared for. Rocking, playing, crafts, and Bible stories are all ways that we invest in our infants and toddlers.

Preschool

Ages 3 – 5yrs

Preschoolers at Pine Hills learn from the Orange curriculum, “First Look.” Our three main truths that we focus on with preschoolers are God made me, God loves me, and Jesus wants to be my friend forever. Through video lessons, crafts, games, and upbeat worship our children begin diving into their faith.

Elementary

Grades K – 5

School aged kids at Pine Hills learn from the Orange curriculum, “252 Kids.” Through biblical teaching, engaging worship, interactive games, and age appropriate small group sessions, our Elementary kids learn how to grow in their relationship with Jesus.

Preteen (PT)

Grades 4 – 5

PT is our preteen youth group gathering. From open gym time and killer snacks to deeper Biblically based lessons and small group times, we hope to build trusted relationships with our preteens and see their faith flourish.

FAQ

In the event that your child needs your love and attention, our Connections team will send a text to the phone number that you registered with.

YES! Our nursing mother’s room is located in our staff office area. Our team will be happy to escort you there! You will find a calm atmosphere along with water and snacks in case you need to refuel.

When you join us for the first time, you will be greeted by a Connections team member who will walk alongside you to complete the registration process. Your child will receive a name tag with a matching security code to your parent tag. You will present that parent tag to the classroom teacher and they will match the security code with your child’s. This code changes weekly for an extra level of security.

Each of our ministry partners are vetted thorough an interview process, background check, and undergo a training + shadowing experience before they are welcomed to our Pine Hills Kids team. We also have a weekend security team who monitor our Kids area. They ensure that no one is able to enter the Kids area without a parent tag or ministry partner tag.

We do. Women 16 years of age and older are allowed to change diapers. All diapering stations are located in classrooms where all team members are present. If a child needs assistance using the restroom, they are accompanied by at least 2 ministry partners. We follow the rule of 3.

For our younger kids, we ask that you provide diapers and wipes. Our Elementary schoolers are welcome to bring their Bibles with them. If your child doesn’t have a Bible, please ask one of our team members and we will get them their very own.
