Life Changing Outcomes for Exceptional Kids

About us

First Children 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 in grades PreK-high school 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.

    I am both personally & professionally grateful for many things these past few years, but nothing can compare to this creation. Sometime ago, my son sat at the entryway of First Children Services, hesitant to enter a new environment. I remember looking at him in unvoiced agreement, as his apprehension represented my own feelings of being catapulted into uncharted territories. Little did I know that those waves of reluctance would lead me to a world of appreciation- witnessing new realms of perception, interpretation, and comprehension. I created this children’s book series to cultivate awareness, understanding, and acceptance of neurodiversity and I hope others can lean on it as they embark on similar journeys. Thank you First Children Services for hosting the book launch of “Elliott Echoes” and above all else, thank you for more than the word everything could encompass.
