Be sure diaper bags and other belongings are marked with the child's name. Place bag and belongings in designated area. Unplanned absences such as emergencies and sickness are understandable but also require that your team captain or coordinator be notified so a substitute can be found. Your faithfulness is vital for the nursery to run smoothly and to bring honor to God. Contact parents if infants are crying excessively or inconsolably or become ill while they are in your care.
Parents are sensitive to the emotions of their infant.
They should not come and find their child hot, sweaty, and exhausted from crying. To contact a parent, give the usher the child's pink or blue name card. The usher will then locate the appropriate parent. Keep diaper bags off floor due to risk to infant safety and infection control. Holding bottle under running warm water or setting bottle in container of warm water is usually all that is necessary.
