I started going to church again just over a year ago, did alpha and became a Christian, as did dh. We attend a local non-denominational (although attached to Baptist church) church. They have a "crèche" at the back of the room (school hall) where you can sit and occupy them. However as ds has got older (20months it is harder to occupy him here.
He runs around a lot, and this has been fine. There are lots more toddlers now, than when we first started going.
We have now moved building, and have been moved into a side room. Ds (and other toddlers also make lots more noise now)
Basically it seems pointless going any more, as all my time is spent chasing him, keeping him in the right part of building, trying to keep him quiet.
Dh has suggested other churches, that maybe have crèches (this idea has been vetoed by our own church elders). Or do I just have to accept that church isn't possible until he is able to sit stiller and quieter?
