New Family Check-In's
Hi Everyone, I would like to hear how you all do your new family check in process. We are a small church, we have two regualr family check-in I-Pads and one i-Pad for new families. Sometime it takes 15 minutes to get them all entered into Planning Center depending on how many members of the household you have to enter. When there is another new family waiting in line it makes it tough to get them checked in quickly and show them to their rooms. We have one lead that helps check in new families by collecting and imputting them in the system, we have one volunteer who helps with regular check in's. I know for bigger churches it is easier but would still love to hear ideas. For those with smaller churches how to do manage this? Thank you for your help.

@Jen Skinner If you are using Planning Center, you don’t need all separate form and to add the information yourself. You can create a family intake form in Planning Center with a QR code, that they would fill out and could get stickers printed.

They will be able to use the QR code on their phone to complete the registration form so the iPad can be used just for printing stickers, not registration.
Volunteer Kids
Hello! We have volunteers that bring their kids to serve with them. I love that they want to serve as a family and teach their kiddos how to serve in the church, but as far as safety and ratio I was curious what others do when it comes to this. This happens mainly when parents are serving in the nursery. Do kids need to be a certain age before serving with a parent? With nursery is it adult only volunteers?

@Christa Haggard My suggestion would be that the parent and you might find it a better fit if they move to their child’s classroom instead of the Toddler Room.
