Example of a nursery schedule: who is scheduled on which Sunday, who still has to respond and which place is still open.

A schedule with many names on it

The nursery schedule is often the one with the most names: almost all parents take part, a few times a year. That is exactly why it takes so much time. Who cannot serve when, who has done enough already, and who forgets it is their turn this week?

Passing on yourself when you cannot serve

In KerkPoint everyone sees the services of the coming three months and ticks when they cannot serve. A holiday is passed on in one go as a period. The person making the schedule no longer has to call anyone.

Shared fairly, filled in with one click

Add the parents as the regular people for the "Nursery" role and let KerkPoint fill the schedule. Everyone takes their fair turn and whoever cannot serve is skipped. You check the suggestion and change what is needed. KerkPoint warns you if someone is scheduled several weeks in a row.

Reminders and swaps

The day before the service everyone gets a reminder. If it unexpectedly does not work out, someone asks for a swap and another parent can take over with one click.

The nursery schedule is in the same overview as the rest of your church schedule, such as the sexton schedule and the projection schedule. Scheduling the leaders of children's church or Sunday school too? Have a look at the children's ministry schedule. See the prices or try the demo.

Availability without phone calls

Volunteers mark their holidays and other days off themselves. Nobody is scheduled on a day they cannot serve.
