Nursery:
Bethany UMC has a nursery for children up to four years old. The nursery is located in the Child Development Center area of the church. (See the Bethany UMC Facilities Map.) Nursery care is available during worship services for infants, toddlers and children who are four and five years old.

The nursery is open 15 minutes prior to church services and is also open during the Sunday School hour, the Wednesday evening Bethany Bash, the Friday morning Women’s Bible Study and for special events and worship services.

Bethany has developed nursery policies and guidelines in order to ensure the safety of the nursery and the health of each child who uses the nursery. For more information about the nursery and our policies and guidelines, contact the Nursery Coordinator.

Children's Church (JAM and Mini JAM):
Near the beginning of the 8:45 and 11:15 a.m. Sunday worship services, children in fourth grade and younger are invited to Children's Church, where they
learn the word of God through praise and worship music videos and a special Bible story.

Children's Church for children in kindergarten through fourth grade is called JAM (Jesus and Me) and meets in room 214 in the Student Wing. Children attend worship with their parents until they are excused following the offertory and escorted to JAM. Parents pick children up in the Student Wing following the worship service.

Mini JAM is our Children’s Church for preschool children, ages three through five, who have not yet started kindergarten. Mini JAM meets in room 108 for the entire worship hour during both the 8:45 and the 11:15 a.m. services. Volunteer assistants ensure that these little ones are escorted directly to their Sunday School classes following the 8:45 service.

Child Development Center (CDC):
The Bethany Child Development Center provides young children with their first exposure to education and social development within a Christian setting. The CDC provides infant and toddler programs, preschool, kindergarten and a Lunch Bunch, all within a warm, nurturing, safe and positive atmosphere. 

The Bethany Child Development Center is fully licensed by the State of South Carolina.

Kids Care:
Bethany provides after school care for children in the Summerville area who are in kindergarten through fifth grade. Kids Care operates from 2:30 to 6 p.m., Monday through Friday, when school is in session. Kids Care includes healthy snacks, free play, music, games and story time, with an emphasis on spiritual growth, homework supervision, and arts and crafts.
