Company History
First Children Learning Services grew out of the First Children School in Fanwood, NJ. Joseph J. Hess, Jr, its president and owner since 2009, recognized the opportunity to begin providing educational, therapeutic and behavioral health services to children in the most natural settings possible. This may be at home, in the local school district, early intervention programs, hospitals, private schools and residential treatment facilities.
First Children operates an approved private school serving children ages 3 to 12 in Fanwood, NJ, which was established in 1978 by Children’s Specialized Hospital and acquired by First Children in 2009. In addition, the organization operates a child care program at its site in Fanwood serving children from infancy through pre-kindergarten, a unique program that serves both children with and without challenges.
Benefits
For our full-time employees, First Children offers health, dental, vision, vacation, sick leave, and a retirement plan.
