Our Mission

Northcliffe Kids exists to help children to love God personally, live their lives purposefully, and serve others passionately, especially their parents, siblings, and peers. Every Sunday, children ages Nursery – 5th Grade experience age-appropriate, safe environments where the Bible is taught in a relevant way!

If you have questions regarding Northcliffe Kids, contact Erica Hart by e-mail – erica@northcliffe.church or call the church office at 352-683-5882.

Come join us on Sunday!

Service Times

First time at Northcliffe Kids?

On your first Sunday, meet a friendly volunteer in the Preschool Center (C Building) or Elementary Center (G Building) to get checked in. This will take a few minutes, so you can come a bit earlier to get them all settled. You can check in children for both age groups at either check-in location.

Each Sunday you and your child will be given matching identification tags that are exclusive to your family and visit. Your child’s tag is to be worn on his or her back. The tag has a code that matches the code on the parent’s tag — this ensures that the right child goes to the right parent at the end of the service.

After getting registered, we’ll walk with you to drop off your child and introduce you to the volunteer in his/her room! ALL Kids Volunteers are background checked and trained to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for your child! After the service, please return to your child’s classroom and present your parent tag to the teacher. The teacher will match your tag and your child’s tag and release them to you. If you lose your tag, simply head to the front desk in the Preschool Center to receive another one.

If for any reason we need you during the service, your pager number will be displayed in the Worship Center on the black screen to the left of the projection screens. We ask that you please exit the Worship Center and return to your child’s classroom.

Registration Is Open!

The night consists of three different sections:

2. Large Group Time
Your child’s club will come together to hear a lesson from a teacher.

3. Game Time

VBS 2024

June 10th-14th / From 8:30 AM – 12:00 PM

At Breaker Rock Beach®, kids will learn to recognize the difference between what the world says is true and what God says is true. They’ll discover that God does not want them to be conformed to this age but to be transformed by the renewing of their minds so that they can discern what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God (Romans 12:2).
