Frequently Asked Questions

Where are you located?

Woods Edge Family Childcare is based in Frelinghuysen, NJ and operates on our farm and woodlands. Nature immersion is an integral part of our program and we spend a great deal of time exploring.

​

When does the Nature Play-School program run?

We run weekday mornings (9:30-2:00) from September through June and follow the Ridge and Valley Charter School calendar.

​

Are you really outdoors every day? Yes! Unless the weather is hazardous we get outdoors. Children come geared up for the weather and have fun! Don't worry, our parent handbook helps with how to dress.

​

Do the kids get dirty?

Oh yeah! We play in dirt, mud, sand, water, and paint. We request play clothing be worn.

​

Are the providers background checked?

Absolutely. Our providers and substitutes are state registered, background checked, fingerprinted and trained in first aid & CPR, health & safety, child development, and abuse & neglect.

Do you accept subsidy? Woods Edge Family Childcare participates in New Jersey State and Warren County childcare subsidy programs and participates in United for ALICE. Please contact NORWESCAP CFRS at 908-454-1078 for assistance with these childcare subsidy programs.
