DCC KIDS (birth – grade 5) provides engaging, age-appropriate learning activities for all children and is available at all of our campuses during Sunday services—Sprecher Road, DeForest and Northside Madison—and online.
Our infant and toddler nurseries are well-staffed with caring volunteers.
In our preschool rooms (age 2 by September 1), kids learn about a God who loves them through Bible stories, music and engaging activities while their parents are attending a worship service.
This all happens through connect, large group and small group experiences.
Kids experience a large group setting with Bible teaching, music and prayer. They also break out into small groups, divided by grade, for fun activities and discussion.

DCC KIDS is located on our lower level. When you arrive for a service, proceed down the main stairwell by the elevator. To the left is DCC KIDS: birth–PreK and to the right is DCC KIDS: K–grade 5. As you enter the lower level, you will find a Welcome Desk and check-in stations with a volunteer available to help. Once your child is checked into their room, you can proceed back upstairs for the worship service.
DCC Kids is located in two areas of our building. As you walk into our main entrance, straight ahead you will see a check-in area. In this area, you will find birth-PreK classes. To the left (south) of our auditorium, our K-grade 5 have their own classroom. A volunteer at check-in kiosks will assist you with checking into our classrooms. The children’s team also can answer your questions and safely provide a fun experience for your child while you attend the worship service. Available for infant-grade 5.
DCC Kids at Northside Madison Campus is located on the main floor, located in the main hallway. Volunteers will check your kids in, help you with any questions, and safely provide a great experience in a fun environment.

Each child in our Upward Sports Leagues learns new skills, is affirmed and encouraged along the way and makes new friends as they play together as a team.
There are two things that drive our sports league for kids—our belief that every kid is a winner and our desire to tell every kid who plays about Jesus. That's it, plain and simple.
