At Saddleback Kids we believe every kid should be known, connected, equipped, and empowered. We’re here to help kids say “yes” to Jesus and his purposes for their lives!
When you arrive at your church campus, greeters are available to guide you to our Saddleback Kids check-in area. From there, you will go to your child's classroom and be greeted by one of our incredible leaders. Every classroom has at least two adult leaders who have completed our volunteer orientation, interview, comprehensive background check, and training process. In the event we need to contact you during the service, we will text the phone number you provided at check-in.
Birth–Age 2
Our goal with this stage is to establish trust by meeting needs consistently — diaper changes, feedings, extra snuggles after a tough drop-off — and to provide opportunities for singing, bubble popping, and age-appropriate toys and textures.
Age 3–Kindergarten
We’ll create a space for your child to experience Jesus through an engaging curriculum, caring and consistent leaders, movement, and play. Our program gives them space to color, play, dance, and even be a part of teaching the Bible story!
Grades 1–5
At this stage we make space for kids to problem solve, think deeply, and process their thoughts and questions. We also want them to know church is a fun and safe place to explore their faith, make friends, and feel encouraged by leaders.
A mid-week discipleship program for kids in preschool–5th grade where they can build a relationship with Jesus, have fun at church, and connect with others.
Has your child expressed an interest in being baptized? Then we would love to have you and your child join us at our next Kids Baptism Class at your campus!
Child Dedication is a special ceremony where parents publicly commit to guide their child towards a personal relationship with Jesus. Prior to participating in our Child Dedication ceremony, we require parents to attend Child Dedication Class to learn more about this special experience.
