Please fill out this form if you want to take advantage of any child care options.

1) Babysitting Room for children 5 and under:

We will hire 1-2 babysitters to staff a room FOR CHILDREN 5 AND UNDER ONLY. We anticipate that, like on Shabbat, some parents will spend time in the room with their children as well. The usual set of toys will be available in the room.

If you have any recommendations of who might be available and interested (someone from the day care you use, your/friend’s nanny, local teen…) please let us know! We need them Monday Sept 10 and Tuesday Oct 1 ~10a-1p and/or Wednesday Oct 9 ~10a-2p.

2) Break Room for children 6-12:

Like in prior years, we would like to have a break room for children over age 5 so they can take a “pause” from davening as needed. The shul will provide board/card games (though more are always welcome!) and light snacks. Parents supervising the room should make sure the children in the room do not use SHAS materials and make sure the children clean up any games or food before they leave. 

We can only do this, however, if parents volunteer to supervise the room. Everyone whose child is likely to visit the break room (the preferred hang-out location for children) should sign up for at least one slot.
We hope to keep the room open on Rosh Hashanah from 10am-1pm and Yom Kippur from 10am-2pm. Time slots for parents will be 30min each, with two adults per slot.  Please let us know how many slots you are willing to sign up for, and which days/times you prefer. We will create the supervision schedule once we hear back from all the families.

3) Children’s Service/Program:

Feedback has indicated that families would like a children’s service that might include davening, stories, or other more meaningful activities for our children. We would love to offer such a program – but can’t do it without volunteers to help plan and run it!  We are not asking anyone to run the entire program, but to help lead a ~30min shift.
Materials will be provided by the Rabbi!

If you would be interested in helping us create and run this program, please let us know!!
