Mission Statement

the Good Shepherd, in our Montessori inspired nursery.

The nursery is available for children ages 12 months through four years old. You must fill out a registration form for each child attending the nursery.  Please stop by the nursery, parish office, or print the forms linked below.

Parents and guardians may leave a child in the nursery ONLY to attend Mass or an event at Holy Spirit Parish. You must remain on campus at one of the listed events while your child is in the nursery:
