6 Weeks - 1 Year
Your child will experience personal care from our well-staffed team. We keep our nursery rooms ready for your little ones with age-appropriate toys that are thoroughly cleaned between services.
We know babies have specific needs and schedules, so when you bring your child to the classroom, we have an easy-to-use form that you can fill out to let our team know the feeding, sleeping, and changing needs your child has. We also take time to love and pray for your child each week.
2 Years - Kindergarten
Our rooms are designed with your child in mind. From age-appropriate toys and special service elements just for them, our team is ready to care for and have fun with your little one during service.
In preschool, children start to engage more with their church experience. We help them interact with their friends, form relationships with their teachers, and build their faith in God. Each week they will engage with stories, video lessons, small groups, and worship songs that give them Biblical truths.

1st - 5th Grade
Your children will experience dynamic worship and Biblical teaching
Most of their time is spent in their Small Group to give them the benefit of a consistent Group Leader and interaction with kids their age. Together, they learn about the Bible and how to have a relationship with God, memorize Scripture, and have fun developing friendships with each other.
Service Experience
Engaging in Praise and Worship
We invite God's presence into our lives through praise and worship, and we want your children to grow up experiencing the joy and benefit of worshiping Him.
Age-Specific Learning
Kids need different things at different ages, and we want to help your child understand and learn God's Word at the right pace. Each year, they'll grow by engaging in age-specific learning that is relevant and interesting to them.
Making Friends in Their Grade Level
God designed us for community, and we want your kids to build healthy relationships with other kids their age. Making friends and growing alongside their peers is an important part of their spiritual growth.
Consistent Small Group Leader
We want your kids to look forward to seeing a familiar face at church each week. As they build a relationship with their Small Group Leader, we hope they'll share, ask questions, and feel supported and cared for as they grow in their faith.
Memorizing God's Word
God tells us to hide His Word in our hearts (Psalm 119:11). One of the most important ways we help your children build a biblical foundation for their lives is by filling their minds and hearts with God's truth through Scripture memorization.
What Your Kids are Learning
Your children will be taught Biblical truths and practical lessons through a learning focus for their grade level and a collection of series topics throughout the year.
The learning focus for their grade level will be taught by their Small Group leader, and their group will work together on learning objectives like memorizing Scripture and understanding Biblical principles. The series topic will be presented through a video Bible lesson followed by age-specific guided discussion with their Small Group. Download the Learning Guide PDF to learn more.

What is Parent/Child Dedication?
Dedication is for parents to present their child before God and the church, agreeing to seek after His grace and wisdom in carrying out their responsibilities. It's a commitment to raise your child to understand that they are saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, to believe that the Bible is absolute Truth, and to know the importance of a community of faith through the local church.
Services are held on the second Sunday of the month, though months and times vary by campus.
Parent Commitments
Because parents are the key role models for their children, we ask that they commit to the following before dedicating their child:
- I have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
- I regularly attend Highlands weekend services and are following Christ in my own life.
- I agree with our church's beliefs and values, which can be found in our Statement of Faith.
- I commit to modeling personal purity and to lead by example in matters of faith and conduct. That means living a life of sexual purity according to God's standards.
