Abbey Arrows: church crèche in Newtownabbey
A calm, caring crèche for babies and toddlers, so you can enjoy Sunday knowing your little ones are loved.
Children are like arrows
Our name comes from Psalm 127, which describes children as arrows in the hands of a warrior. We love to pray for, care for and celebrate every little one who comes through our doors.
Abbey Arrows is a soft, safe space with toys, books, songs and plenty of cuddles, led by a gentle and experienced team.
