CFR is the only grantee in New Jersey that offers all program options: center-based, home-based, combination option, and family child care.
CFR has strategically located programs to serve the diverse communities and families throughout the rural/suburban/urban catchment areas of the county. We have served this community since 1980. We currently provide child development services in eight locations in Passaic County with our child development centers located in the towns of Ringwood, West Milford, Wayne, Pompton Lakes, and four sites in Clifton. Our Family Child Care homes are located in the towns of Clifton, Prospect Park, and West Milford. All of our locations are NAEYC accredited. Services are available at no- to low-cost to income-eligible children and families inthese distinct areas throughout the county.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
