We believe in the Next Generation
We are a church for all the family. You’ll find something for every age at Lighthouse. Find out below what’s available for everyone under 18.
Parent Lounge
At each of our locations we have a place where parents can take their young ones. From birth to 3 years old we have created a space for parents to engage with the service through live stream with a space where your young ones can enjoy themselves too. This is a parent led space but we will have team near-by to serve you.
Lighthouse Kids
At Lighthouse Kids we are passionate about seeing every child:
1. Having loads of fun!
2. Making new friends.
3. Learning that Jesus loves them.
Our Lighthouse Kids Church experience is captivating, interactive, and all of our team is trained and Garda vetted.
What To Know Before You Arrive
Here’s everything you need to know about what to expect, how to check in, and how we create a safe, fun, and faith-filled space for your children.
When are Lighthouse Kids and Parent Lounges available?
Both Lighthouse Kids (LKC) and our Parent Lounges are available at all of our services in all of our locations.
What ages does Lighthouse Kids & Parent Lounge cover?
Our Parent Lounges are for children aged 0–3.
Lighthouse Kids covers children from Preschool (ages 3) through to primary school (up to age 12/13).
Children are grouped into three age levels with age-appropriate teaching & activities designed for each group;
Pre-school to Senior Infants
1st to 3rd Class
4th to 6th Class
In some of our locations these groups are in different rooms, whereas in other locations they may be in the same room but split into different groups.
Do I need to register my child before attending?
No advance registration is required! You can just register your child at the Sign-in Desk when you arrive at church.
Where do I check in my child?
Check-in takes place at the entrance to our Lighthouse Kids environments. You’ll be greeted by a team member who will take your Childs name/s. If it is your first time with us you will have to sign in and give us some basic information.
Once you’ve signed your child in with our team, you will receive a ticket with your child’s name on it. For safeguarding, only the person holding this ticket may collect the child.
Those using our parent lounges don’t need to check-in as your child will be in your care.
How long do our services last?
Our kids experience runs for the duration of the adult service, about 90 minutes.
What safety measures are in place?
The safety of your children is of the utmost importance to us. All our volunteers are garda-vetted and trained in child safety. Our kids rooms are secure and parents receive a unique pickup ticket to collect their child after the service.
Lighthouse YOUTH
We know the secondary school years can be complicated. Students are growing up fast and need a place where they can learn how God sees them. Our goal is to create a community where every student knows they matter and belong. The road through secondary school may be bumpy, but it doesn’t have to be lonely.
Our gatherings includes a live band, practical teaching and fun. These are weekly events that run in our Navan & Dublin Locations. Throughout the year we hold special gatherings where all of our locations join together so keep an eye out on our social media accounts.
We also have YOUTH small groups in all our locations where our young people meet up during the week and connect over an activity.
Parents Group Chats
We know young people don’t remember everything so we have a WhatsApp group chat just for parents where we keep you up to date with everything happening at Lighthouse Youth. Don’t worry, the only people that can post into the group are our leaders so you’ll not have loads of notifications
