Expectant Parent Ministry

Congratulations!!!

         Whether you are expecting your child through pregnancy or adoption this is a special exciting time for your family.  We want to celebrate with you not only when you child arrives, but while you are waiting.  We want to surround you with prayer, support, and anything else you want during your wait. Just let us know what you need.

Fairview Nursery

           Leaving your little one in the nursery for the first time can be a very difficult experience for many parents.  We have taken every measure to make this transition as comfortable as possible for both parents and infants.

          We work to provide a clean, safe, loving environment for your newborn.  The nursery will be attended by no less than 2 trained personnel who will care for your child physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
          If your presence is needed for any reason, we will call you using our pager system.
          We enforce a well-baby environment for the health of all infants and workers.  Each room is sanitized prior to use.  When your child’s diaper is changed during class, our staff uses rubber gloves to prevent the spread of germs. 
If you have any questions about our nursery or our procedures, please contact us.
