Toddler & Family Support

Nurturing Little Lives, Strengthening Families

At Shekinah Glory Community Outreach, we recognize that a strong foundation in the early years of life is critical to a child’s growth — and to the well-being of the entire family. That’s why our Toddler & Family Support Program is designed to meet the developmental, emotional, and spiritual needs of young children, while providing encouragement and assistance to the parents and caregivers raising them.

Through age-appropriate activities, compassionate care, and community connection, we create a nurturing space where children can thrive and families feel supported, seen, and valued.

A Community That Cares

Our Toddler & Family Support Program is more than a service — it’s a community. We offer a safe, welcoming environment where parents and caregivers are respected, children are cherished, and everyone is reminded that they are not alone.

Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old, he will not depart from it.” – Proverbs 22:6

An older woman with glasses and a young girl are baking bread together in a kitchen. The woman is guiding the girl as they knead dough on a floured surface. Both are smiling, and the woman is wearing an apron, with a Christmas-themed shirt underneath.

Toddler Playgroups & Enrichment Activities

Our play-based sessions give children (ages 1–4) a safe and engaging environment to explore, grow, and socialize. These group settings also allow parents and caregivers to connect with each other, share experiences, and learn new ways to support their children’s development.

Activities include:

  • Storytime and early literacy exposure

  • Music, dance, and creative movement

  • Sensory play and hands-on crafts

  • Faith-based songs and simple Bible stories

  • Free play to promote social and emotional learning

Led by trained volunteers and early childhood educators, our playgroups are both fun and developmentally enriching.
