FIRST TIME AT KAIROS?

We recommend arriving 15 minutes prior to service in order to allow time to get your kids checked in and find a seat.

When you arrive, a Moment Maker (volunteer) will greet you and walk you over to Kids VIP Check-In area. If for some reason you aren’t greeted, follow the signs and look for the colorful walls and K!DS signs. Our Kids Moment Makers  will get your family’s information and provide your child with a first-time sticker to identify them and you will be given a sticker to identify you as their parent. Then one of our Moment Makers will accompany you to the fun and age-appropriate environment that’s been created for your child. 

ALL Moment Makers 16 yrs and older are background checked and approved for the saftey of your child.
